In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
I can't see us getting a penalty kick in the near future.
So, when do we throw on Rooney?

feck..i have the same feeling.thewelshconjurer said:I can't see us getting a penalty kick in the near future.
I'd like to see Rooney come on after half-time. We're not creating any clear cut chances and even when we have a good spell of possession, we don't look like scoring. We just need to shake it up a bit.

I thought it was a penalty as well until I saw the last replay Sky showed, there didn't look much contact and Fortune made a meal of it.
WTF has Wenger got to do with this anyway
Rooney is a big game player and he has a great shot, don't know what SAF is waiting for
Frustrating first half, we were better IMO until the goal but no threat what so ever to Cech.
Awful defending in their goal, 3 Chelsea attackers got the better of about 5 defenders...
I can see why Chelsea are doing so well this season, going to be hard to get back from this.

We don't look like scoring at the moment, bring Rooney on in the 2nd half.

Where have you been?
He started the whole "evil United always get awarded penalties by the bribed/incompetent refs" movement in October.
Remember? When your lot were wearing '50 Not Out' shirts under your kit?

So Lampard standing totally unmarked in the middle of our box is Garry's fault ?

You share my feelings, how sweet
As for taking Ronaldo off, he may be having a tough time on the flanks, but he's the only attacking player trying to create something so far.
there's no such thing call replays in football.JazzG said:I thought it was a penalty as well until I saw the last replay Sky showed, there didn't look much contact and Fortune made a meal of it.

it's a penalty at first place.
it seems like every ref is so obsessed with not giving us a pen so now we have to get feckin shot inside the box to get one
CremboMan said:
Yeh, you've got to give credit to Chelsea. They've been very disciplined and it's been very tough to get through their defence.
I can't see us breaking them down unless we really change things around.
That was a penalty, but at the same time I think Fortunes reaction was the main reason it wasnt given.
And Fat Frank standing in the way of the referee.

You mugged us at Old Trafford with that Rooney penalty, the season before as you nearly got away with it.
Our lot were wearing 50 not out shirts? Really, you got any proof of that or you just making things up about our club like your lot usually do?
FFS stop whining about the ref, there might have been a foul on Quinton there, but his jump made it look like he was fishing for a penalty rather then being fouled.
how dare that chap bet on Lampard scoring
CremboMan said:
Agreed. With Chelsea's defence so compact and tight, we need players like Ronaldo/Rooney/Giggsy out there...players that can run at their defence and create something out of nothing.
If that wasn't a penalty why didn't the ref book Fortune for diving ?
Because the cnut didn't have the balls to give what was a legitimate penalty

Clear-cut penalty, fecking ref.
We got to somehow find 2 goals in the 2nd half and also stop chelsea scoring again.

Come on now, Rooney's penalty award cancels out Ronaldo's non-penalty award.
if we got 1 - 1 at the end of the game. Do we go into extra time or chelsea win with the away goal?
JazzG said:
When you stick your foot out in the penalty are, you are asking for trouble. End off.

extra time, but if it stays 1-1 after extra time its curtains..........

*sigh*
If only "Red" Mike Riley were here. He'd make sure it was about 5-0 by now. All penalities, and Chelsea would be playing with only 8 men.
I know if I was officiating this match, I would do that
cheers! getting confused with the fa cup and this one.

They are affraid of the rags and all this media circus connected with awarding a penalty for United at OT.
miah said:
We do extra time. If it stays tied, then we're out.
No away goals until extra time.
Meaning, a level score takes us to ET, a level score after ET - takes Chelsea to the final.

Think Man utd need to go 4-4-2 now and get rid of Fortune, need 2 goals and I can't see you scoring them with the more defensive minded 4-5-1
And Ronaldo's non-penalty award came due to our players being caught up the pitch trying to cancel out the Rooney dive, it wouldn't of even happened if we were still at 0-0. Enough about that anyway, been over this before far too many times.

At least we're attacking the Stretford End. Hopefully the maniacs can give us an advantage.

So in other words we must score more than Chelsea or else we are out.
what the feck was with that fecking chelscum wall?
JazzG said:
Yeah, yeah, yeah,.....
Does anyone still want Ronaldo taken out for Rooney? I'd take out Saha.
