The Devil May Care 4 - DMC special edition.
Well it seems as though some of you out there need cheering up and a more
than a little encouragement. Don't you know this is what it's always like
supporting United. It's not bland and boring like supporting any other
club. Imagine what it must be like supporting Arsenal - bloody boring,
that's what.
And then ask yourself why you love Manchester United. Ask yourself why we
fight so hard for the club, why we love it when everyone else despises us,
why we stand up in defiance of others. Ask yourself why so many fought so
hard and long to dump the BSkyB bid and save the club's independence.
So, why do you support United? Is it because of the aura surrounding the
club, the history, the pain and glory? Is it the style of play, the
swashbuckling swagger of the men wearing the red shirts, the never say die
attitude? Or is it because they win stuff?
If it is just the latter, you shouldn't call yourself a supporter at all,
because those of us who have followed United through thick and thin, year
after year support them because they are Manchester United a very very
special football club who don't have to win anything for us to support
them.
Some want to change the face of football so desperately they would be only
too pleased to get rid of the likes of us. Dump us for a fast buck. They've
got a fight on their hands and they know it. And who are leading the fight
to "SAVE OUR GAME"? Manchester United supporters - who else.
"Typical of that lot". Can't you hear them in the dark and dusty rooms of
the FA where the carpets nearly touch the ceiling because of all the shite
that's been brushed underneath them. No doubt after Wednesday night those
very same carpets will be brushing the rafters.
After the game against the scouse I couldn't speak, I was so angry. I have
never been more angry after a game in my life, and was afraid I may do
something really stupid and land myself in a deal of trouble. Thankfully I
held myself together and managed to stay out of trouble, but it wasn't
easy.
I was angry at the incompetence of one man and we all know who that man
is. I hesitate to call him a cheat, but can think of no other word to
describe his actions. The second half was littered with decisions which
would have lead to a lynching had they been made at the local park.
Carragher and Ince should have been sent off and the match won after that
disgraceful tackle on Blomqvist. But to add insult to injury he prefers to
turn his back and pretend nothing was wrong.
And what is the fourth official going to do about this - f**k all I expect.
What do they ever do - sweet FA - that's where the name comes from. As for
the so called penalty - not even the Kopshite thought it was, they couldn't
believe their luck when they heard the whistle.
It was the worst display of biased refereeing I have seen since the
Italians came over with their wads of cash in the sixties and seventies. I
have already faxed the FA and would urge everyone else to do the same. This
particular man in black must be stopped and never allowed to referee
another United game for the rest of his pathetic career. If I ever come
across this individual, even if I live to be 100 I will tell him how much
contempt I harbour for him. He ranks alongside the cheating MacParland, the
unworthy to have ever worn the red shirt - Ince and the despicable Willis.
If you don't know who the other two are, ask someone about the 57 and 85
Cup Finals.
And then yesterday something happened. Out of the loathing which coursed
through my veins, the hate which spilt out of my mout. After nearly a whole
day of isolation having not listened to the radio or watched TV I calmed
down and came to my senses and thought, maybe it is the best thing that
could have happened after all.
I know you're probably thinking that ol DMC's gone completely off his head
- but wait....................
We didn't lose the game did we? We still have the same chance of winning
the title as the Arse don't we? All we have to do is win three more games
and score more goals than them and it's ours. We can do that can't we?
Think about the way we do things at United. Wouldn't it be the best
possible way to win - on goal difference? Wouldn't those pathetic moronic
excuse for football fans, the scousers,with their Bayern banners, Munich
chants, Bacofoil European Cups - wouldn't they just luv it if we did that?
In fact wouldn't everyone else just luv it. The thought fills me with such
joy I can't wait.
The irony awaits us, destiny is calling. Imagine the scene........We go to
face United old boys, the Arse are facing theirs. Both teams triumph. It
goes down to the last day of the season. We play Tottenham the Arse's hated
rivals. The Arse play Shotgun and his crew. Tottenham are tied between
hating us and loathing the Arse. In effect it matters little as the rampant
Reds run out victors. The Villa faithful are so desperate to see us lose
they're wetting their pants, but their heroes pull off a famous victory at
Highbury and the Gooners are distraught while we celebrate.
It's just too good to be true, I hear you say. Wait and see and admire as
Keano lifts the trophy at OT - the real trophy, not the fake one which is
at Highbury on Sky 2.
Remember what the Wizard said, "We are just not going to let the referee
stop us from winning this league".
That's good enough for me. The Wizard will demand success for all of us who
love this club.

Subject: UNITED REACH THIRD FINAL
Wednesday, May 05, 1999 17:24
Manchester United reached another cup final on Wednesday, but
Europe's sporting press will not be scampering to fill back page
columns on the strength of it.
Less than 200 people saw United lose 1-0 to Oldham Athletic in the
last of the Manchester Senior Cup group games at The Cliff. That said,
it was a relatively meaningless game for the Reds' Reserves.
Their earlier results in the competition meant that they could only
miss out on a final place if they lost by a phenomenal scoreline.
Oldham, on the other hand, needed a win of any complexion to secure
their place in the final and that's just what they achieved with a
goal from Carl Tranter in the 73rd minute.
United seemed almost content to play out this final group match happy
in the knowledge that their ticket to the final had already been
issued and stamped.
There were one or two moments to remember but it was largely a
disappointing encounter, which no doubt suffered because of the high
temperatures the players had to contend with.
Most of the action was crammed into the opening few minutes when both
sides saw good efforts strike the frame of their opponents' goal.
Then, in the 14th minute, United goalkeeper Nick Culkin reacted well
to save a spot-kick from Latics' Ryan Sugden.
The Manchester Senior Cup Final between United and Oldham will be
played later this month. The venue has yet to be decided.

Subject: Manchester United face up to "Captain Marvel"
By Alan Baldwin
LONDON, May 7 (Reuters) - Manchester United's former
"Captain Marvel" Bryan Robson could give his old club's league
title hopes a decisive boost or a fatal battering when the
European Cup finalists visit Middlesbrough on Sunday.
The Middlesbrough manager has little to gain or lose from
his eighth-placed team's final home match of the season against
United but he can expect an emotionally charged afternoon
whatever happens at the Riverside Stadium.
Middlesbrough were the last team to beat United in any
league or cup match, winning 3-2 at Old Trafford on December 19.
Since then United have played 28 matches without loss, but
if Boro were to beat them again it would keep alive their slim
hopes of qualifying for European soccer next season.
Just one point will also make sure that they finish the
season ahead of Newcastle United as the highest placed team in
the north-east -- an important local consideration.
But it could kill off United's hopes of wresting the title
back from champions Arsenal, who have put in a late surge with
15 goals in their last four games -- including a 6-1 away
drubbing of Middlesbrough late last month.
United must win to go back to the top of the league ahead of
Arsenal on goal difference with two games left.
Arsenal have 75 points, Manchester United 72 and Chelsea 71
but United have a game in hand until Sunday's match.
Anything less than three points could therefore prove fatal
to United's challenge for a European, F.A. Cup and English
premier league treble, leaving their fate in the hands of their
southern rivals who play next at Leeds United on Tuesday.
For Robson, the delight in twice beating an awesome side
that has only lost three times in the league all season might be
tempered by sadness for a club that he served faithfully for
more than a decade.
Either way, the captain who steered United to F.A. Cup glory
three times and saw United win the league in 1993 and 1994 when
he was on the fringes of the side, is not going to offer any
assistance now.
"The fact that I had a long career at United doesn't come
into it," said Robson. "We want the points and a win for our
fans. I know (United manager) Alex Ferguson would not do us any
favours and he won't expect any either."
Ferguson knows that only too well after United drew 2-2 with
Liverpool in midweek, the late Liverpool equaliser coming off
the boot of former United midfielder Paul Ince and some
refereeing decisions that enraged the manager.
With a trip still to come on Wednesday to
relegation-threatened Blackburn, now managed by his former
United deputy Brian Kidd, Ferguson knows that if the title
returns to Manchester it will not be thanks to former Old
Trafford favourites.
London bookmakers are offering odds of 1-2 for United
against 11-2 for Middlesbrough, with a draw at 12-5.
The statistics back this out, with United having lost only
once in their last eight games at Middlesbrough with the last
defeat a 1-0 loss in January 1989.
With neither United or Arsenal playing on Saturday and
third-placed Chelsea -- who still have a mathematical chance of
the title -- at Tottenham Hotspur on Monday night, the focus
turns to the relegation battle.
Nottingham Forest are down already but Blackburn, Charlton
Athletic and Southampton are all in real danger. Mathematically,
Everton, Sheffield Wednesday and Coventry are not 100 per cent
safe either.
Southampton, away to Wimbledon, are two points clear of
Blackburn -- at home to Forest -- and Charlton, who travel to
fifth placed Aston Villa. But Blackburn have a game in hand and
are the marginal favourites to avoid the drop.
Villa, who once thrashed Charlton 11-1 in 1959, are still
chasing a place in the Intertoto Cup and through that a
qualifying berth in the UEFA Cup.

Subject: Mark Hughes needs a ticket for Barca - Independent
The war-horse Hughes keeps soldiering on Basement battle: Veteran striker
has no regrets about swapping Stamford Bridge for The Dell despite
relegation fight - By Glenn Moore
Many a contemporary, in an industry where youth is prized, would long ago
have resorted to the Grecian 2000 to cover up his prematurely greying
thatch but Mark Hughes is refreshingly free of ego. Now 35, he has rarely
sought the limelight which a glittering career has thrust upon him and - as
long as he is playing - has long been a believer in team before self.
But one recent personal achievement did bring extra satisfaction: his goal
against Blackburn last month. It was his first for Southampton after 32
appearances, and the media and supporter criticism was beginning to weigh
even on his broad shoulders.
He stressed that helping Southampton to gain a vital draw was the important
thing, but admitted: "It did get a bit of a monkey off my back."
He added: "It's conveniently forgotten that I've played three quarters of
the season as a holding midfield player, so I've not been expected to get
forward, but it makes a better headline if you point to the fact that I've
only scored once.
"Having said that, I should have scored more. I've had five or six
clear-cut chances. The difference is that at my other clubs I've had five
or six chances a game rather than in a season."
When asked how he felt about his own form this season, Hughes had initially
reacted with an embarrassed laugh. "To be honest," he said, "it's not gone
as well as I'd have liked, but I've been reasonably happy with my
contribution. I've obviously not been able to be as much of an influence as
I might have wanted, but I have enjoyed it.
"It's never been a problem being motivated. If you don't feel like training
then your mind, or your body, is telling you that maybe it is time to look
at something else, but I've never had that. I've been very lucky never to
have had major injuries and I'm still at the front during warm-ups. It
beats working."
According to local observers Hughes has found his best form in recent weeks
as Saints have clawed their way out of the relegation zone. This should be
no surprise; Alex Ferguson calls him "the best big game player I have
known" and while Premiership survival, rather than a trophy, may be the
prize, the matches are no less important.
"It's so important for the club to stay up. A lot of the finance to pay for
the new ground is based on playing in the Premiership. It's been a
difficult season because expectation was a lot higher after doing well last
year, but we got off to a bad start and have been struggling ever since.
"The difference between pressure at the top and at the bottom is in the way
players react. At the top of the league you go into games expecting to win.
At the bottom you go out hoping to win. It is a confidence thing. When
players have not won for five or six games they start to wonder where the
next win will come from. They start choosing the wrong option, maybe play
safe when they need to be a bit braver. The first goal becomes very
important. If we go behind we find it very difficult to come back."
Southampton have come back against Blackburn and Leicester at home
recently, but only one of the five points gained away from The Dell has
come after conceding first - at Highbury, of all places, in October. "Our
home form has kept us alive," Hughes said.
With 11,000 fans making the trip to Selhurst Park, this afternoon's match
at Wimbledon may feel like a home match but, Hughes cautioned, "it is just
the sort of thing which might spice up Wimbledon".
Hughes, of course, could have been chasing the title again rather than
fighting relegation. He left Chelsea because it seemed he would rarely
start but, given Brian Laudrup's departure and Pierluigi Casiraghi's
injury, they could have done with him. "Obviously looking back I would have
played more games but I made the decision for the right reasons. There were
four strikers there and they bought two more. Something had to give, so I did."
While he enjoyed his time at Stamford Bridge, Manchester United, the club
he embellished for a decade, are his preferred champions. He also hopes
they can defeat one former club, Bayern Munich, in a European Cup final
hosted by another, Barcelona.
"It would be marvellous if they could win the treble," Hughes said. "It
would be an incredible achievement. I think they have gained a lot of
credit the way they have performed this year. Most of the time it is United
against the rest. Everybody wants to knock them, but I think they have
turned a few people's heads this year and it is about time.
"I think they have a great chance against Bayern. I'd love to go but I
don't think I can get a ticket - and if I can I probably won't be able to
get a hotel room. Perhaps I can get a job commentating - spread the word
for me."
Hughes returned to Barcelona recently as part of their centenary
celebrations; the club invited every former player it could contact.
Hughes was one of the least successful, a homesick youngster who struggled
to adapt to the football and the culture, but he now views the time more
fondly. "It was good experience. I went there a young man in years and mind
and I came back a lot older. It helped my development and I'm glad I went
there."
We are talking at Southampton's training ground. The reserves play there
and we are sitting in the dug-out. Hughes, who always swore off management,
looks comfortable in the setting.
"As you get older you get ideas about the game that you'd like to try out,"
he admits. "You think about the game more. As a younger player you are more
concerned about you, individually, rather than the team as a whole. When
you get older you want the team to succeed because you realise that you
will succeed along with it.
"I feel I've something to offer. I've played under Mr Ferguson, Luca
[Vialli], Terry Venables, Ruud Gullit, Glenn Hoddle - all good managers in
their own right. I must have learned something from them. Players seem to
forget you only play for 15 years. You have another 40 years to live so you
need something to get out of bed for."
Hughes' war-horse image suggests he would be a Gordon Strachan of the
touchline, but his softly spoken, quiet, off-pitch demeanour is more like
the impassive Vialli. So who would he be like as a manager? "I don't think
I'd be bouncing up and down. I only get angry when I get physically
assaulted and you are pretty safe in the dug-out - most of the time anyway.
But I won't have a problem making my feelings known."
Fifteen bookings in 34 matches this season suggests not, though Hughes
adds, with relief, that he has now been overtaken by Olivier Dacort at the
top of the "naughty boys list".
For now he wants to keep playing, ideally in the Premiership, as long as
possible. He has another year with Southampton but will eventually return
north to the house he had built in Manchester's stockbroker belt and where
his family continue to live.
Hughes' one remaining ambition is to qualify for a major tournament with
