Manure v Swans

Buxtonclaret · Post by **Buxtonclaret** » Sun Apr 30, 2017 11:48 am

One of those rare occasions I'll be wanting that lot from Salford to win today.
Here's hoping.

Don't give a ****. We're safe.

There'll be an usual amount of support for Man United on here today and rightly so

Buxtonclaret · Post by **Buxtonclaret** » Sun Apr 30, 2017 11:54 am

Probably, Turtle.
Nice to be certain though.

Lancastrian solidarity!
For one day only.

IndigoLake · Post by **IndigoLake** » Sun Apr 30, 2017 11:56 am

I'm a massive United fan today. 5 points difference with 3 to play would still be good but come on, 8 points is all but insurmountable. Here's hoping the Swans get stuffed!

At the moment both Hull and Swansea can reach 43 points. We have 39.

IndigoLake · Post by **IndigoLake** » Sun Apr 30, 2017 11:58 am

I see Cork isn't playing. Injured?

Edit - Ah, seen he's on the bench.

IndigoLake · Post by **IndigoLake** » Sun Apr 30, 2017 11:59 am

I'd love us to sign Llorente.

Neither of them would reach that if they were given ten extra games to play.
We're perfectly safe.

FactualFrank · Post by **FactualFrank** » Sun Apr 30, 2017 12:07 pm

Even a draw wouldn't be so bad. We'd be 7 points clear and so Swansea would need to win their 3 remaining games, with 8 not being possible from 3 games.

But if United don't win this, there's something wrong.

taio · Post by **taio** » Sun Apr 30, 2017 12:09 pm

Frank, you can finally rest easy

Buxtonclaret · Post by **Buxtonclaret** » Sun Apr 30, 2017 12:13 pm

Manure do still look dodgy at the back, when you get at 'em.

IndigoLake · Post by **IndigoLake** » Sun Apr 30, 2017 12:13 pm

United under pressure there!

Buxtonclaret · Post by **Buxtonclaret** » Sun Apr 30, 2017 12:14 pm

Crap defending.
Swans should have scored.

IndigoLake · Post by **IndigoLake** » Sun Apr 30, 2017 12:15 pm

Crap FK. Is he blind?

If you could see this game at the moment, you would think differently.

IndigoLake · Post by **IndigoLake** » Sun Apr 30, 2017 12:17 pm

I wouldn't mind us signing Fabianski if Heaton (God forbid) was poached by a bigger club. Great keeper.

IndigoLake · Post by **IndigoLake** » Sun Apr 30, 2017 12:25 pm

As long as Ashley Young is playing, Swansea have a chance. I don't know how he's still at United tbh.

IndigoLake · Post by **IndigoLake** » Sun Apr 30, 2017 12:30 pm

Good effort from Martial there.

IndigoLake · Post by **IndigoLake** » Sun Apr 30, 2017 12:33 pm

Save from De Gea

IndigoLake · Post by **IndigoLake** » Sun Apr 30, 2017 12:48 pm

United penalty!

1-0!

Get in. Never a pen. Dive.

I'm watching it, Dermot. Swansea are fired up by desperation. And United are winning.

Stop worrying, for god's sake.

Wile E Coyote · Post by **Wile E Coyote** » Sun Apr 30, 2017 12:50 pm

great, very unsportingly, I havent a care about whether it was a pen or not, they are getting beat, all that matters.

happyclaret17 · Post by **happyclaret17** » Sun Apr 30, 2017 12:50 pm

never a pen in a million years...the sooner attacking players get penalised after the game for cheating the better...he dropped his foot to try and get the keeper to touch him....bet mourinho doesnt mention that after the game.

Vegas Claret · Post by **Vegas Claret** » Sun Apr 30, 2017 12:50 pm

great for us but tv replays can't come soon enough, diabolical from Rashford

mkmel · Post by **mkmel** » Sun Apr 30, 2017 12:52 pm

No way should that have been a penalty

Quicknick · Post by **Quicknick** » Sun Apr 30, 2017 12:52 pm

We've all had this happen to us, but referees need to sort it out.

Okay, it's looking a bit better now.

Buxtonclaret · Post by **Buxtonclaret** » Sun Apr 30, 2017 1:09 pm

The sooner they start retrospective punishment for that sort of cheating- suspensions, even points deduction, the better.
That was so blatant it's embarrassing!

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Sun Apr 30, 2017 1:13 pm

No doubt Clement will be moaning about it.
He wasn't too worried about Ben Mee being blatantly fouled when
they scored the winner at their place.

F**k em.

Buxtonclaret · Post by **Buxtonclaret** » Sun Apr 30, 2017 1:21 pm

Yep.
Take that point, Electro.
I've no sympathy for Swansea.
We've had some crap thrown our way on the 'rub of the green' stuff this season. Probably much more against than for.
But that sort of cynical cheating just isn't good for the game as a whole.

It was De Gea's shout - he waved him back into the wall when he'd come back on the line. Rooney at fault also - needless challenge which lead to free kick

If Swansea win it late then get 9 points from their remaining 3 games and Hull do likewise...both in the 40s.

p.s. there was an Englishman, a Spaniard, a Portugese chap and a Welshman in a pub...

Blackrod · Post by **Blackrod** » Sun Apr 30, 2017 1:51 pm

Swansea were always capable of getting a result in this game as posted on earlier threads.

The same earlier threads that mostly said we weren't capable of one at Palace?

jlup1980 · Post by **jlup1980** » Sun Apr 30, 2017 1:59 pm

That'll do for me. I would suggest we can all relax a little now! 7 points clear, 3 games left and a much better goal difference than Swansea. They need to win all 3 remaining games to get above us and I can't see that happening. Match their result next weekend and we're officially safe.

Spijed · Post by **Spijed** » Sun Apr 30, 2017 1:59 pm

I'll bet Clement won't mention the fact that had Llorente scored he was clearly offside!

Lancasterclaret · Post by **Lancasterclaret** » Sun Apr 30, 2017 1:59 pm

Doesn't change things that much from our point of view, but that game between Palace and Hull is going to be crucial

Quicknick · Post by **Quicknick** » Sun Apr 30, 2017 1:59 pm

7 points behind us.

KefkaClaret · Post by **KefkaClaret** » Sun Apr 30, 2017 2:00 pm

Really don't see Palace being dragged into it. Between Hull and Swansea.
