Utd players smarting after defeat?

[Kenneth Hickey]

getting stuck in the groundstaff and everything absolute disgrace....

[MonTheHoops]

Says in the Sundays that Ferdinand raped someone in the tunnel afterwards. I quote "skipper Rio Ferdinand kicked out in the tunnel, injuring a female Chelsea steward"

Terrible, terrible scenes. Kids crying all over apparantly. No evidence for that but sounds good.

Pressure getting to them?

[kevinbitzz]

Just saw the CCTV footage on SSN, looked funny cos it was speeded up, but twas all just "handbags" IMO

[VzN]

Man Utd have no class. Hope they blow it now.

[raZor]

There's a distinct lack of martial arts on Park's part there IMO ;)

[STEVIEG]

Evra is without doubt my favourite United player

Great to see his commitment, even in games he doesn't play

PS-who was the fat Chelsea nobody who tried to punch him?

A member of the Chelski's groundkeeping staff apparently

Or Adrian Mutu

[Professor Piehead]

Utter scum, he should be banned for life.

Mutu served his sentence in fairness

Oh, silly me, I thaught the thread was about Rio Spliffinhand.

It's not Rio's fault in fairness, being around that rapist Wrongaldo hasn't done much for his respect of women.

[ho chi feen]

Meh. Not so much as a single punch thrown (except for the nutcase empoyee). Storm in a teacup, folks.

Coulda been a great Monty Python routine. But the speeded up shoot in B&W and you're sorted.

Jeeez, I didn't know John Terry's brother was a steward...

Evra 'racially abused' prior to pitch brawl

Tevez claims grave insult was directed at team-mate
FA launches investigation into fracas at Chelsea


Daniel Taylor and Dominic Fifield
The Guardian (http://www.guardian.co.uk/theguardian)http://image.guim.co.uk/sys-images/Football/Pix/pictures/2008/04/28/evrapamartinrickett. jpg

Patrice Evra is alleged to have been racially abused in the moments leading to the violent confrontation between Manchester United's players and a number of Chelsea employees after Saturday's game at Stamford Bridge. Evra has been promised his team-mates' support as the Football Association opens an investigation into the incident.


United will request a copy of the CCTV footage from Chelsea and will study the pictures before making a formal complaint. Evra was punched at least once, ending up with a bruise and a small cut above his eye. The Frenchman has admitted losing his temper but claims he was provoked, an allegation that has been backed by some of the players who were close by. One source close to Evra has told United that a racist comment was made.
"Patrice received a grave insult from a member of Chelsea's staff," Carlos Tevez said last night. "He demanded an explanation and from that moment these men just wanted to attack Patrice. Obviously it's normal that we tried to defend our team-mate but within a few seconds all of the United players were surrounded by stewards.


"I think that the security cameras will show the provocation we received. I have never seen anything like this in my career . . . if the FA opens an investigation, we will cooperate and happily give our version of what happened."


The flashpoint occurred after a group of Sir Alex Ferguson's unused players were asked not to run across the pitch during their 'warm-down' because the grass was being cut. Instead they were told to jog in the same direction as the lawnmowers so the groundstaff could repair the turf ahead of Liverpool's visit on Wednesday for the second leg of their Champions League semi-final. The players refused and it is thought that one of them may have sworn. It was at this point that Evra was allegedly abused and the punch-up began. The two groups were separated but then came together again and Evra had to be restrained by team-mates. Photographs show one Chelsea employee, believed to be a groundsman, with his fist raised.


"Basically, this came about because of the provocation of somebody who works for Chelsea," said Gerard Piqué, another of the players involved. "Patrice wanted an explanation but these men were very aggressive. All we were doing was finishing our work-out after the game. Even now I just do not understand the reaction of these people. I have seen the photos and, if the images are stored in the CCTV cameras, then it will be impossible for them to say that the players were not provoked."
Tevez added: "We noticed a hostile atmosphere during the match. That is normal but never did I believe these incidents would happen afterwards without any spectators in the ground."


The FA has requested the CCTV footage, as well as reports from both clubs. Chelsea say they will comply, their instinct being to follow the FA's guidance on the issue, though they have not yet ruled out lodging a formal complaint over the conduct of United's players. At the end of the match Rio Ferdinand tried to kick a door in the tunnel but connected instead with a female steward, who was left with stud marks down her right shin. While it is understood that she has accepted his apology, and flowers, the incident did not reflect favourably on a player who, a few hours earlier, had emerged as Fabio Capello's preferred choice to captain England.


Ferguson's main concern is the fitness of Wayne Rooney, Nemanja Vidic and Anderson, all of whom had treatment for injuries yesterday, with Rooney in particular a doubt for tomorrow's Champions League semi-final second leg against Barcelona. However, Ferguson will give his version of events today and is likely to back Evra. United were also unimpressed that stewards prevented Sir Bobby Charlton and the chief executive, David Gill, from trying to calm the situation.


Chelsea have yet to comment on the matter but intend to scrutinise the CCTV footage in an attempt to work out what provoked the fracas.

if they didnt obey the groundsmen then bad form. no excuse for racial abuse if that happened.

rio is a dimwit though in fairness.

but fergie is the one who let the club down with his usual outbust at the ref. not one spotter given against them this season prior to the game and he goes on like that. when you think of the amount of spotters they've received over the years, particularly at home. cunt sickens me. yet another example of why theres an ABU. keano was right, hes a hypoctite

Pretty sure that the racial abuse thing as been dismissed

handbags really nothing much in it good fun for the red tops

I'm disappointed in you.

Did you see the GAA lads on this site dismissing the Meath_Dublin violence last week?

Rio kicks a woman.
Mayhem on the training pitch.
Ref abused in person and on every mic put in front of Ginsoak and Queiroz.

UNited need to be hit with a ton of bricks over this. A ton of bricks

to be fair Rio owned up straight away.
The most embarrassing bit of the weekend for me was Queiroz's paranoia getting the better of him. Worldwide conspiracy, embarrassing stuff.

Yup

I was delighted to see him so fired up on the pitch though

Future Captain IMO

One of the players who has stood firm lately and who has more than held his own

Tomorrow should be a big test for him though

From a great hight. Could you imagine if this was Chelsea players at Man Yoo, Ginsoak would be baying for blood.

Park looks like he is getting stuck in with some kung-foo.:p

It's about the only time he's ever got stuck into anything.
I only said it the other night.
Ying Tong Park has never done a single useful thing in his entire career at Manyoo except sell replica shirts to gullible gooks.
End of.

Same excuse every wife beater uses if you ask me. "i was punching the wall, cept she happened to be inhabiting the space between my fist and it."

Hasn't Ferdinand done this before? Didn't he belt the ball off some pensioner recently? A horrible individual.

Let's be Frank.
Most Premiership footballers are uncouth oafs who care more about roasting some unsuspecting secretary from Dagenham than they do about the finer things in life.
And Ferguson is the jam-faced jackass who is their patron saint.

Is Ferguson trying too hard, reminds me of some unsure of himself lad who is reading war and peace drinking murphys in the sin é.

"If Sir Alex Ferguson was hoping to make a statement that he is hell-bent on European domination this season, he picked the right reading material yesterday.

Under the arm of the Manchester United manager as he strode through Manchester airport en route to Barcelona was the book Lenin, Stalin and Hitler — The Age of Social Catastrophe. Written by Robert Gellately, the American author and Professor of History at Florida State University, the publishers say that the 720-page tome shows how the “pursuit of utopian — and dreadfully flawed — ideals led only to dystopian nightmare”, "
