Man Utd 1 - 0 Brum

We won the first match of the season. Crazy happenings.

It was great to see an officiating performance of such a high standard. They only missed a blatant red card on Carr early doors when he was all over Berbatov when the Bulgarian was clean through. Then they let Carr stand on Berbatov's foot in the box, no penalty given. To top things off, they ruled out a perfectly good Owen goal for offside. Ok, to the every day watcher it's offside but when the replay is shown you can see that the Birmingham defender has his leg extended beyond Owen's.

Oh well. Ferguson will get on the blower and fill the FA in. We should get those rewarded back to us against better teams.

Good points? Valencia being very direct. He'll be a star. Rooney looking sharp. Fletcher giving players hell in midfield, snapping into tackles and making himself known. Berbatov holding the ball up and bringing the midfield into play.

Bad points? Giggs and Scholes. Woeful, especially Giggs. Couldn't do a thing right.

Hopefully we'll get some defenders fit at some point this season.

Still... three points out of three. How strange.

Ok, so you didn't see the offside then. Watch it again. As it's played, Owen is behind the last defender's trailing leg. Whoops. No apology needed. I doubt you'll reply, such will be your shame.

Owen was well offside check the replay. Flethcher should have been sent off as should Evra for lunges on Birmingham players. United = overrated. PLATIC FAN.

Sorry for being a platic fan. :(
