Great result, was a good game.
Did anyone notice in the Liverpool game Gerrard dived twice and the commentators barely mentioned it. Garcia dived and they were outraged that the ref didnt give a yellow card.

Re: [Merged] The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
this survey on players wages makes interesting reading
http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/4898392.stm
only covers their basic wages and not bonus money,, etc
also seems alot of them would support a wages cap so maybe they not all greedy after all

I seem to remember that he held out for more money before signing a new contract at the start of this current season, it just seems a bit strange that a defender is earning more than say Rooney who is on £30,000 per week.

Re: [Merged] The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
as far as i know Rio is the top earner.. Wayne get's less as I don't think Fergie wanted to give a youngster 100K a week at his age.. in a few years time he would have to be on double that
that survey only covers the basic wages though and not scoring bonus.. win bonus, appearance fee.. plus each player has boot deals.. sponsors etc etc to take it even higher

Fire crews called to Old Trafford
Firefighters were called to tackle a blaze at Manchester United's Old Trafford football ground.
Crews were called at about noon after a fire started at the rear terrace on the seventh floor of the stadium where building work is taking place.
The fire service said it was put out within 40 minutes by three fire engines and an aerial appliance.
More than 25 firefighters dealt with the fire and building workers were cleared from the site.
Scaffolding and a gas cylinder being used at the building site at the ground were involved in the incident, said a spokesman for the fire service.

Funny that one tabloid failed to mention it. The same tabloid who are currently staging a love-in with Wayne and Colleen.
Couldn't possibly have been because they are being sued by a Mr Rooney could it?

On that note...

Newspapers to pay Rooney damages
Manchester United and England footballer Wayne Rooney has accepted damages of £100,00 0 from the publishers of the Sun and the News of the World.
The newspapers had falsely reported the striker slapped his fiancee Coleen McLoughlin during a row at a nightclub in Cheshire in April last year.
Rooney has always strenuously denied the newspapers' story.
The Sun claimed he had been enjoying a night with his fellow United stars when the alleged incident took place.

rooneys age be a factor in his wage. Younger players generally earn less.

If this ends up as a draw, it's Chelsea's title.
