Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.
F*ck sake. I'm 100% sure that Vida will get a ban now, because the media smell blood. Why always us? Gerrard gets away with it ahead of our game. Malouda gets away with it ahead of our game. But hey presto, ina physical game where at least 3 united players are also elbowed (including Berbatov, who was given a foul AGAINST) going for high balls we'll get punished. I f*cking hate the FA. Bet they ban Evra too.
If you watch it on the replay, there's nothing wrong with it. No premeditation, he's just up higher and using his arms. Eyes never leave the ball. If that's violent conduct we might as well stop making it a contact sport. As I said with the Ramsey incident - you can't punish actions based on outcomes, it has to be on the action itself. It sucks that poor lil Elmander bled a little, but for f*cks sake how many times a match do he and Keven Davies do the same thing.
Dysfunctional is a compliment.
