What a game!!! United pull away champions from a mad night that would not have looked out of place in a Hollywood script. Infact if a screenwriter pitched that idea with all the twists and turns and alternate endings they'd probably get laughed at...either that or they'd get Dolph Lungren to play the lead and send it straight to the bargain basket!!
BEWARE...CAUTION ... THERE'S A JOHN TERRY IN THE HALL
I WAS WATCHING LAST NIGHT AND TRYING TO THINK OF WHO AVRAM GRANT REMINDED ME OFF...*STROKES CHIN*

Check out these loopers - Pupils sent home after turf prank
Clearing up the turf could cost hundreds of pounds
The entire sixth year of a school was sent home on their last day after pupils turfed over the floor of their common room.
Teachers at Banchory Academy in Scotland took the step after it was discovered some pupils had been drinking.
Aberdeenshire Council said it was decided to send all 100 pupils home.
A spokesman said there were concerns about disruption to exams taking place in the school. One 17-year-old pupil was charged with breach of the peace.
'Particularly disappointing'
An Aberdeenshire Council spokesman said: "Banchory Academy is extremely disappointed that the disruptive actions of a number of sixth year pupils has spoiled what was due to be an enjoyable day of activities to mark their last day of term.
"There was evidence that some pupils had been drinking and given the size of the year group the head teacher has had no choice but to send all of them home, both for their own safety and to avoid any disruption to standard grade exams under way today.
"This will be particularly disappointing for those sixth years who were genuinely looking forward to their last day of term."
The spokesman added: "A day of activities had been planned to but due to the actions of a minority of pupils this has had to be cancelled.
"This is a very poor way for pupils to end their school career and we hope those who disrupted the day understand the upset their actions have caused."
The cost of clearing up the turf has been estimated at hundreds of pounds.
THERE'S ONLY ONE IMPORTANT MESSAGE TO COME FROM ALL THIS:
KEEP OFF THE GRASS LADS

READ THIS WHILE YOUR WATCHING ABOVE VIDEO
Cider company Bulmers has confirmed that it has fired eight workers over a YouTube video. The workers at its plant in in Clonmel in Co Tipperary were fired for what it described as serious health and safety breaches that were filmed on a mobile phone.
The men were seen jumping into a moving forklift, turning on vehicles and allowing them to move on the warehouse floor without drivers, spraying fire extinguishers and somersaulting from stacks of crates onto cardboard boxes. (I remember working in a Marzipan factory while at College and we used to used the back of the open delivery doors as goalposts for a bit of night shift 5 a side...difference is these muppets POSTED THE FECKIN VIDEO!!)
Those involved are all experienced, full-time workers.
The video was called 'Working Hard for Bulmers' and was set to the tune of the mobile phone ringtone 'banana phone'.
A spokeswoman said the company had almost 500 staff and jeopardising the safety of its employees would not be tolerated. SIPTU, which represents the staff, said it would not be appealing the decision unless asked to do so by individual employees.
Maybe Bulmers should think about sending these lads to their own Comedy Festival -

I got an email from Niamh, one of the many members of staff doing a brilliant job asking if we would like to meet our canine equivalents down at the centre...Understandably we were very nervous about meeting Casey & Lenny but it all went really well and i have taken Lenny the Labrador's advice and i'm only going to be wearing a neck-scarf and a pair of shades from now on...well that's if the weather holds up or i grow a healthy covering of hair!!!

Today we were talking about weird phobias...KC has serious issues with people licking dry towels, others have issues with crumpled paper, some of ye out there can't stand pigeons, goats, cats, toe-nails, the sound of marker pens on paper!!! Me, on the other hand have no weird afflictions...but if you ever come towards me weilding a roll of sellotape ready to peel *goose pimples* i will either lodge it in an orifice or jump through the nearest exit doesn't matter what floor i'm on...aaaarrghhhhhhhhhhhhh
Thankfully we are not alone ...check this weirdo out...
STUDENT Gillian Linkins suffers one of the world’s most bizarre phobias – a fear of BUTTONS. Gillian, 22, can’t even stand to be in the same room as friends and family who wear them. She first realised her fear aged seven, when she refused to put on her school blouse. The sight of buttons sends Gillian into panic attacks and boyfriend Nate Dorrington, 23, can only wear clothes with zips. She said: “I’ve had the fear as long as I remember. My mum says I freaked out when it was time to get dressed. “I have always been fearful of buttons, especially when they are grouped together. “For me touching a button would be like touching a cockroach. It feels dirty, nasty and wrong. When I was younger my brother used to tease me by opening my mum’s button tin. I hid in my bedroom until he put them away.
“My cousin was wearing a button necklace one day and in the end she had to take it off.I could not stand being in the same room as her.”
She added: “Some people don’t believe me and I try to joke about it. I’ve tried things like self-help tapes and hypnotism but nothing has worked.
“Watching the children’s TV show Button Moon is like being made to watch a horror movie. People just think I’m weird.”
But Gillian’s not alone. Her phobia – officially named Koumpounophobia – affects one in 75,000 people. A spokesman for The National Phobics Society said: “The phobia often affects children and the problem can persist into adulthood.
Here are TEN genuine phobias...
ARACHIBUTYROPHOBIA - fear of peanut butter sticking to the roof of the mouth.
DEXTROPHOBIA - fear of objects at the right side of the body.
HIPPOPOTOMONSTROSESQUIPPEDALIO-PHOBIA - fear of long words.(something tells me this is horseshit...don't know what gave me that idea)
AULOPHOBIA - fear of flutes. (could be the result of watching American Pie)
DOXOPHOBIA - fear of expressing opinions. (any member of Fianna Fail)
CLINOPHOBIA - fear of going to bed. (anyone under the age of 14 has at one point suffere from this .. also known as SCHOOLIPHOBIA)
SOCERAPHOBIA - fear of parents-in-law. (speaks for itself)
SYMMETROPHOBIA - fear of symmetry. (when two women wear same dress on night out...ouch!)
OPTOPHOBIA - fear of opening your eyes. (also known as sleeping)
LITICAPHOBIA - fear of lawsuits. (usually ok around a shirt & tie though)

How to give the perfect man hug...
A firm, hearty handshake is always an appropriate way for men to greet each other. But when men achieve a greater familiarity, a man hug becomes appropriate. Some men fear male on male hugging of any kind. But done in an appropriate way, men can still hug while remaining secure in their manhood. Here’s how:
As a final note, some men, are not quite comfortable with the fully embracing style of hugging even when done correctly. Thankfully there is a bridge between the handshake and the bear hug. With the REAL man hug comes certain protocol and procedure that men haven’t articulated, but nonetheless follow. These unspoken rules allow men to hug each other without feeling like they’re being wussy.
The How of the REAL Man Hug
1. Begin with a traditional firm handshake
2. Keeping your hand clasped with your buddy, wrap the left arm around the shoulder of your friend.
3. Slap your friend’s back two times. The back slap is key just don’t try this directly after lunch this may result in a technicolour t-shirt . However hitting your fellow man makes the hug appear more manly.
4. Release embrace.
When to REAL Man Hug
Man hugging is not appropriate with every man you come in contact with. It carries with it a certain intimacy that should be reserved for close friends and family. If you were to try to man hug a new acquaintance, you would probably be greeted with stiff awkwardness. However, if you’ve developed a bond after your initial introduction, a goodbye hug may be appropriate upon parting.
