I'm still not anywhere near ok with this, no matter how great it was beating Arsenal.

I'm no great fan of the Mancs, but the amount of crap they get over that, which was in no way their fault is just unending. The FA insisted they take part in the World Club thing, and exempted them from the FA Cup in order to make more space in the calendar for them to compete. The FA were completely and totally to blame, it was nothing to do with the Mancs at all, who didn't even want to be in the competition.Eggs'n'nuts wrote:I think you're right. Wasn't it something to do with them being in The World club championships? I seem to remember it was with The FA's blessing. I also seem to remember, they went on to win the league that season, which rubbed salt into the wound!
Not to say they haven't done other crappy things, but on this one at least, they are pretty blameless
