Navegador Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 It is their first piece of silverwear in how long? 35 years. The last one was the League Cup in 1976. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest howyousawtheworld Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 I genuinely congratulate Manchester United on winning their 19th title. It is a fantastic achievement. The same goes to Man City on winning the FA Cup. Certainly interesting times ahead for both Manchester clubs. And as for Liverpool v Tottenham tomorrow - boy do I want to tear them apart. Still bitter over the defeat in November but things have changed a lot since then for the Redmen! And if ever there was an incentive for the Reds to get back to the top, seeing Manchester United getting number 19 is about as big an incentive as you can get! With some good signings, a united front in the stands, in the boardroom and on the field AND King Kenny leading the charge I relish the next few seasons!

mc_squared Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 A city united by glory! Double success as Manchester's two clubs win titles and Rooney celebrates with bizarre chest-shaving Tweet   By Ian Gallagher Last updated at 1:39 AM on 15th May 2011  2.37pm: Manchester United win 19th league title - a new record4.54pm: City lift FA Cup, their first trophy for 35 years For once, the city of Manchester really was united yesterday.  Sir Alex Ferguson's footballers secured a record 19th league title – and, two hours later, rivals Manchester City won the FA Cup.  The victory over Stoke at Wembley ended a 35-year trophy wait for Blues fans and also means both major domestic trophies are heading to Manchester this season.    A cut above: Wayne Rooney celebrates United's title win by shaving the number 19 into his chest hair and, right, Manchester City's captain Carlos Tevez holds the FA Cup aloft after their win at Wembley Stadium   Shortly after scoring a penalty earn to his side's 19th Premier League title win, Wayne Rooney celebrated in bizarre fashion by shaving the number '19' into his chest and posting a photograph of it on micro-blogging site Twitter. It was a remarkable double that left everyone happy. Jubilant celebrations swept the city and in some cases the unthinkable occurred: both teams' fans toasted each other’s success.  'It's been our busiest ever day,' said Claire Rathern, of the city centre sports bar Norwegian Blue.  'We had one game after another, there was a great atmosphere and now we’re getting ready for an even busier night.'   One side: United's Patrice Evra (left) and Nani celebrate winning the Premier League title by parading an inflatable trophy - to the delight of the red half of Manchester   And then the other: City get their hands of the trophy to delight the blue half of Manchester  United got the point they needed at Blackburn when Wayne Rooney scored an equaliser from the penalty spot to level the game at 1-1.  United star Rio Ferdinand uploaded a picture of the squad on Twitter – kick-starting their post-match celebrations.  The caption read: 'Championes championes ole ole ole!! Make sure u #stayonyourfeet tonight all you fans out partying!!'  Former Manchester United star Phil Neville heaped praise on both red and blue sides of Manchester saying: 'Great day for Mancunians...and it’s stopped raining!'   The blue half: Manchester City fans celebrate their success at Wembley stadium And the red: United fans in Blackburn didn't have far to travel home before they could celebrate an historic victory in their home city   United have now won more top-flight league titles than any other club in history, overtaking Liverpool’s tally of 18.  And at Wembley, Yaya Toure scored the goal which saw Manchester City beat Stoke 1-0 to claim the cup. The two clubs will return to Wembley to contest the Community Shield in August.  Immediately after the final whistle at Ewood Park, United fans flocked to Old Trafford to celebrate the title.  Later, hundreds of City fans gathered at Eastlands to hail their heroes. You gotta roll with it: Manchester City fan Liam Gallagher enjoys his club's win with the City fans' recently-adopted 'backwards' celebration Magnifique! A Manchester United fan wearing a mask of one of their former playing heroes, Eric Cantona, gets continental with his signage    City will hold an open-top bus parade in Manchester on Monday, May 23 and United will parade their trophy on Bank Holiday Monday, May 30.  Sir Richard Leese, leader of Manchester City Council, said: 'City winning the FA Cup is a joyous occasion for many people in Manchester, myself included.  'Manchester United winning their 19th top-flight title is a remarkable and historic achievement.  'It’s only fitting that we host a public celebration of those achievements so fans can share the moment and enjoy the success.'   God Save The Queen: Stacey Solomon sings the national anthem with The Scots Guards at Wembley   Who said sport and politics don't mix?

Guest howyousawtheworld Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 2-0 to Tottenham. Very disappointed. There was a lack of conviction and the spark compared to recent results but overall did not deserve to lose 2-0. Two lucky goals aided by the most biased refereeing performance ever from that useless Manc loving **** Howard Webb. The guy was even smirking when he gave a goalkick to Tottenham which never was. I really want to see the end of that pigs career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Rose Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 Fight to the finish for 5th now, Spurs against the team with the 2nd most UK top-flight league wins. It's a 5-way battle for the final 2 spots really, although Blackpool away to the team with the most UK top-flight league wins on their victory parade would probably join West Ham next year.

Prince Myshkin Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 They deserve to be in the final. It's a little rich to say they can play in England but not in the Premier League. It shouldn't only become an issue when they get to the top league (on merit I add). People should have fought this case for the last hundred years if they felt so strongly.
