I dont care, united could be 10 points clear, it was sweet success, I think even everton gave us a better game.

Was a pleasure to see the look on shreks face, and ferguson looking like an overinflated raspberry, united were worse than average.

This could be a huge dent in uniteds confidence, the doubt could now creep in.

Absolutely made up, I hope we get them in the next round in europe, bring it on.

Wayne Rooney certainly wont, still, he can always look in the mirror and give it the " Once a blue always a blue.... " Mullarky, he was useless today, I think ferguson made a huge mistake playing him after his outburst during the week, thanks fergie

Hang on, is it april already?

I think if youve been watching match of the day just now you will see their take on consistency of the top four teams over the past 5 games? Liverpool are top

Just like how you've been worse than average in the league for god knows how many years now, eh?

Every team has a bad game/patch but it's how you come out of them that counts, we've shown time and time again we come out of them well, i reckon it's more likely the scousers will lose their next match rather than us.

As much as I am filled with sheer hatred and contempt for all things Scouse atm to be 4 clear, game in hand, gave Liverpool a six point start and with only Arsenal at OT left from the Big4 (so called) - I can't worry too much.

Game in hand puts us 7 clear - will we loose another three games this season? If we do then we don't deserve it, and sorry, but if we don't Chelsea will.

United are only seven clear when they win the game in hand, they might only be 5 clear after the game in hand.

Makes the run in very interesting

The only thing that's cheered me up after today's game is the number is Scouse fans who seriously seem to think they're in with a chance of taking the league now....don't they realise the 80s are long behind us?

Want to put a number to that? who scored the most goals in all competitions last season? and it was not united

Well united seem to have just gone into their bad patch, usually bad patches run for a while, how many league games are left?

Now if I remember rightly, United seemed to do pretty well last season.

Ohhhhh you're so right! United have thrown it all away now after 1 bad game! The premiership title will finally go to Liverpool!!

And I'll grow all my hair back....

Russ, the old adage comes into play, while it is still mathmatically possible there is a chance, if we had lost today I would have conceded it would be virtually over, the lift this win will give the team will be immense, the 80's, was that not when fergie was almost put into a taxi? amazing how things change in football.

Oh wow well done for scoring the most goals in all competitions, i think the most important numbers last season was 2-0, two trophies to United none to Liverpool, i'll stick to winning the Champions league and Premierhsip rather than scoring the most goals thanks

I hope you come back to this thread at the end of the season, rather than just when you've beaten a rival

United are only seven clear when they win the game in hand, they might only be 5 clear after the game in hand

That's what I was getting at, 7 clear with the game in hand, we need to loose three for Pool (or Chelsea (COME ON CITY)) to go above us.

was that not when fergie was almost put into a taxi

Never, all paper talk that, a nice story, I think people in and around OT knew what he was doing in those early days. It wasn't just about winning a trophy, it was a complete overhaul of a club that was off the rails.

I didnt say united have thrown it away, but usually with a bad run 1 bad game can lead to points dropped here points dropped there, Liverpool have done it, why cant united?

I still dont think he should have played shrek today, he looked out of his depth.

Yes, for example how Liverpool dominated the 70s and 80s. Then the 90s arrived and they haven't quite been the same. It's good to remember that Blackburn Rovers have won the Premiership more times than the Scousers.

You sure have a short memory. Which team consistantly turns up the heat in the title run-in? SAF has already proven he owns Rafa when it comes to mind games and this season will be no different.

To come anywhere near our standards united have to first equal 5 european wins, I cannot see that this season, maybe fergie will have to extend his stay another season?

But yes, if united win the league I will come back to say well done, but I dont really think united have moved any mountains this season in the league, they have made ground on points we threw away.

Where have all these fairweather...erm...Liverpool supporters come from? It's just like the 1980's all over again.

" Game in hand puts us 7 clear "


That is what you said, seems united have already won that game by what youre saying, no it wasnt just paper talk, he was nearly out the door because the fans wanted a trophy.
