A good day today for United. An exciting if not very solid win against Derby County in the Carling Cup Semi-Final sees us through to the Final to face either Spurs or Burnley, probably Spurs.

Aside from the usual stuff, turns out that Sir Alex was today voted the best manager of the last 12 years.

We just received independent confirmation of our guess about the FC Dallas jersey sponsor. It comes from a different emailer than the one who tipped us off but would not name the company involved. However one detail we chose to leave out of his original email was the fact that the company was based in Dallas as we were still looking for confirmation of that and now we have it.

According to an email which we received today it is highly likely that "FC Dallas" in the photo above will be replaced with a sponsor very soon. At the author's request we have disguised their identity will not post their email. Instead we will paraphrase the details.

Even though it is Memorial Day the rumors keep 'a comin'.
Apparently the photographer leaked this photograph and then pulled it. But lucky for us, others saved it right here on the internets.
Nice shade of green in a league dominated by red and blue. We've been told by a reliable Seattle based source (the one who clued us in to the trademarked proposed names a while back) that the Sponsor that is pixelated is actually Jones Soda. Click to continue reading...
