Two Big Games on Easter Day
Two huge matches today. United open up against a London foe first followed by Citeh taking on their London opponent.... could it be a big day in the Title Race?
The Dahlgren boys are luckily enough to be at the Emirates to cheer on the Arse. We here at LOB will be doing the same after watching the Red Devils take on the Evil Rangers
COME ON MAN U!!

Decent side put out by United. Of course, there is nothing to save any players for
Let's make it nice and easy and score early and often
No Barton or Zamora in the starting line up for QPR. Apparently, they were really good last week against Arsenal
I have Five Live on the computer going strong. They don't have the United match so I will keep it going to listen to their talk
I really dislike Mark Hughes now. I think he is my least liked ex United player.
He was a brilliant player but he seems to be anti-United since he left
FSC's show has started. Nice of them to start five minutes before kick off
Good morning UWS. I will be watching the match on FSC.we beat QPR 8-1 when Sir Matt was in charge. I want eight goals from Hernandez. A hat-trick from RVP would do nice easily along with a world record tantrum from Balo.
This from the other thread
Afternoon, lads. We're off to the Emirates in a few minutes now. Come on, you Gunners!
I agree with you about Sparky and enjoyed watching the show about Ruel Fox. I once saw him play against the Orlando Lions in a preseason match for Norwich which included a certain Brucie.
Seems to be chilly at Old Trafford
The Dahlgrens better post some pictures or else Bob will be Warnock's personal assistant for life and Steve will change his allegiance to Spurs!
Morning MUR
Please send some of that chill my way.
COME ON UNITED... DON'T BLOW IT!!
Away we go.. COME ON MAN U
Pass the ball well
Play with pace
Score goals
And we're off from OT.
COME ON UNITED!
WIN 8-0!
Score early and often
So much for Hernandez scoring eight . He's on the bench.
I hope a couple of the United goals are offside so that Sparky gets upset and gets sent off.
Free kick chance for United
A nasty foul by Clint Hill in true evil fashion.
The free kick from Roon deflected off of Rio's bruv for a corner.
Not sure why Hernandez is on the bench.. I didn't think Fergie was too pleased with Welbeck last week
Decent effort defected by the wall
Ashley Young wins a United corner off of Tai Taiwo.Almost a third corner but a clearance from Taiwo bounces off the corner flag for a throw.
Just looked it up and Nani has 8 goals and Young has 7(not including the goal I count against WBA)
Bob is going to lose the bet!
Another free kick chance
A good start by United and Tai Taiwo seems to be the weak Rangers link.
Great save by Paddy Kenny from a Roon free kick. Another corner.
United maintain possession form that corner.
Nice effort again by Rooney
Well saved by Kenny
News out of Leeds today is that Warnock wants to sign his old favorite keeper, Kenny, for Leeds
WHY?
Come on United... you've created not much except free kicks... LET'S GET GOING!!
Great tackle by Carrick. Never a foul.
QPR beat United 4-1 on New Year's Day 1992.. the start of United blowing the league
I agree.
COME ON UNITED!
I WANT NOTHING LESS THAN EIGHT FROM YOU!
I saw the match at a friend's house. Ian Bailey's one moment of fame was scoring a hat-trick as he went into obscurity. One of the worst United performances.
I want a GOAL!!
I agree. what is wrong with Andy Lonergan . Why didn't Grayson get to sign players, but Evil Neal is going to be given spending money this summer?
Nice run by Rafa but comes to nothing
YES!!!!!!!
PENALTY!!!
AND A RED!!!!
Of course... going against ten men... definite pen but he was offside!
YESSSSSSSSSS!!!!!
WELL DONE LEE MASON AS SHAUN DERRY GIFTS US A PENALTY AS HE BRINGS DOWN ASHLEY YOUNG!
I agree. Young was offside.
YES!!!!!!!!
Rooney slots home the pen
It shouldn't have been a pen
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!
1-0 AS ROON SCORES WITH A GREAT PENALTY!
BUgger.. Five Live just cut off
It was stupid by Shaun Derry. He knew it because he didn't protest the decision and walked off the pitch immediately.
Again, just like yesterday... there is no reason why the ref couldn't see that offside
Another poor decision may get the ire of Sparky to the point where he can join Shaun Derry for an early bath!
There wasn't much contact to Young.. he did pull him and touch his leg though
Still ... it shouldn't have counted... offside by a mile
Another free kick chance for Unted
Clint Hill loses it , but he obviously fouled Welbeck just outside the box. What is he protesting?
The free kick went into the wall.
I want some more
I agree that both refs should have seen the offsides, but Chelsea's was more obvious as Ivanovic was four yards offside and Ashley was afoot offside, which was harder to spot. Also, Roberto said that Juan Mata was offside for the winning goal.
Rafa was fouled but not called then he is called for a foul.
THe ref has lost the plot
SEVEN MORE UNITED!
I agree. A poor start from Lee Mason.
ooh, deflected on to the bar!
Knock it off Rangers
I think the ref is going to try and make up for some of his decisions
Great push out from De Gea and the corner from Taraabt is out for another.
Do you like my punishments for the Dahlgrens if they don't send us pictures from the EM.
This is on the BBC website... and their wrong!!
United lost 3-0 to Newcastle this season!!
1351:
Here is an interesting stat - Rooney's penalty means that United have now scored in their last 46 Premier League fixtures, equalling a record set by Arsenal between 2001 and 2003. United last failed to score in a 1-0 defeat to Aston Villa in December 2009
Great cross from Roon after winning the ball from Taiwo , but Ashley couldn't get a clean connection at the near post.
I missed your punishment... what time was the comment?
Speed it up United
Of course, playing against 10 men is difficult
We need another one soon
We did lose 3-0 to Newcastle in early January, but have not scored in the last 46 unless they are talking about home fixtures.How could we if we didn't score at SJP?Also lost 1-0 at the ERM last April.
ooh, nice break by United.. Roon has a shot blocked. I was thinking he could take a shot earlier instead of going wide to Valencia
That wasn't a yellow.... shut up both of you commentators
I posted the comment at 8:28 just before you wished me good morning.
1356:
Calm down tweet and texters. Our mistake. We meant home fixtures unbeaten in the earlier stat. That's been changed now.
ANNOYING COMMENTATORS!
That makes more sense.We ended Arsenal's streaks .
Raffa wins a corner off of Taiwo.
BOOM BOOM VALENCIA! He said the goal was 50-50.
Too slow... or patient... from United
Well wide by Evra after a great possession.
Part of United's problem is that QPR have none men behind the ball, which they will do even if they are down by five.
KNOCK IT OFF RAFFA!
CLEAR THE BALL!
Nice punishment for the Dahlgren boys... well deserved if it doesn't happen
Useless by Rafa.. I don't know why Fergie keeps playing him. Especially after the last goal from A. Bil.
Isn't Smalling fit?
I wish QPR were playing with "NONE" men behind the ball... I know.. you meant nine
I think he has been injured.He could play Jones at right back.
Really, this still isn't good enough from United
Nice shot by Roon.. but saved
Still not good enough.. one goal.. from a dubious pen
BOOM BOOM ! Nice one , UWS!
What was wrong with that Valencia challenge on Taiwo?
Jonno goes to Upton Park Park tomorrow. He will have to support Evil Millwall for life if he doesn't send us any pictures!
United still don't look to be creating much
Welbeck heads well over from a cross by Valencia.
Another good punishment
Niko on Twitter: "Roberto Martinez spot on. Its not time for technology its time for a ref linesman who knows the rules."
Another chance for QPR but a handball called..
Nice one Roberto and quite right too!
Of course, United don't score from a pen. It comes to Rafa... why doesn't he take a pop? They try to pass it like Barca
Are we smarter than the current students at LHS? Jonno posted a picture of LHS on facebook from the same spot that Tony did and I noticed a campus map. We didn't need one.
I have seen more pace from constipated grannies.
I'll have to look at that picture thru Tom's Bookface
Still... I am not happy with this performance again!!!
WHAT IS GOING ON!!!
well wide by Evra.
MORE SHOOTING PRACTICE PLEASE!
What a horrible picture you just put in my head!
Why is there a need for a campus map? we didn't need one or is this a post 9/11 thing?
Old Trafford sounds so quite!
Sorry, UWS, but it's true?
Sounds ridiculous
I see that the Annex seems a lot bigger these days
Useless pass from Scholes.
Martin Tyler and co say that United are reluctant to shoot
I am not sure, but it looked familiar from the limited views I had.Jonno said smaller.
Into stoppage time. I agree with Martin.
Again... stupid passing
Finally Scholes shoots.. wide.. but I'll take that
SAF is not pleased. Quite right Fergie!
It looked bigger from the sky from Google Earth
Half time... not good enough
Halftime and 1-0 to United, but not pleased. I wanted four by now.
Off for walkies
Be back for the second half
I hope Sparky gets sent off.
CHEERS UWS!Enjoy the walk.
It has finished Hibs 1 Motherwell 1 and Hibs is now seven points clear of the drop zone.
I am back right as QPR get us started
COME ON MAN U
COME ON MAN U
COME ON MAN U
The second half is underway from OT.
I don't want another Fulham match
Welcome back, UWS.
I WANT SEVEN MORE UNITED!
What kind of pass was that from Welbeck
I agree and that was a West London club too.
YES!!!!!... BUGGER.. OFFSIDE!!
That was marginal!
Welbeck has a goal disallowed for offside. It looked similar to Young's position for the penalty.
I WANT THE FLOODGATES TO OPEN!
A short walk for Shadow?
Very Evil!
Poor Shadow.
Second half has started the same.. plenty of possession.. not creating much... Welbeck hits one over
Great commitment form Welbeck , then a great back heel from Young, but a poor finish from Welbeck.
Just around the block.. another one will be given after the Dahlgren match
Useless pass from Carrick.
A second goal is a must for United
That pass from Carrick is a reminder of what Shadow did on walkies????
From the Beeb.. what am I missing??
1416:
BBC MOTD's Jonathan Pearce at Old Trafford:
HALF-TIMEManchester United 1-0 QPR
"They might have been fortunate to get the penalty but don't take anything away from Manchester United - they've been tremendous."
Very much so
TOO MUCH PASSING UNITED!
I have seen less from bad poker hands in a full night of card playing.even more than in Bridge.
The only thing I can think of is that we have dominated possession and QPR have been forced to chase the game.
That should have been a QPR corner as the free kick came off of Evra. Clint Hill has every right to be upset.
Finally a shot... Roon's shot is easily saved though
Good save by Paddy Kenny from Roon.
Here comes QPR.. one goal and we're tied... SCORE AGAIN UNITED!!
THis is just like FULHAM!!
Buzsaky wins a corner off of Rio.
Useless United clearance from the corner.
Another QPR corner.
Fortunately it was a useless QPR corner and United break.Not far wide by Scholes.
United break and Scholes takes a shot.. wide..
COME ON MAN U
COME ON MAN U
COME ON MAN U
Not an accurate finish, but it was the right idea.
United passing it well... well away from goal... NOT HAPPY
GET IT OVER YOUNG!!
GREAT PASS BY SCHOLES... HOW DID RAFA MISS!!!
I agree. We need to shoot more .
OH OFF THE BAR FROM RAFFA!
Useless shot by Welbeck!!
Useless shot by RAFA... it wasn't a fantastic save... Rafa hit him!!!
come on welbeck!!A superb through ball from Roon and he does an Andy Carroll impersonation by shooting straight at Paddy Kenny when clean through.
Giggs replaced Young.. He was disappointing today. I thought he would do better after his goal on Monday
I agree with both statements UWS. Giggs is on for Young.
Tai Taiwo clears for a United corner.
We're still going sideways
Giggs crosses... of course.. Rooney isn't in the box to score
GORDON BENNETT!!
HORRIBLE BY RAFA
Useless cross from Raffa off the short corner unless he 's aiming for a 20 ft giant.
Useless pass from Giggs.
What was Welbeck's control all about there!!
I would bring on Hernandez
25 minutes to go... Still up in the air!
I would have started Hernandez.I wanted eight from him today.
COME ON UNITED! SCORE!
Another useless pass from Raffa.
Great run and pass... again.. the cross is hopeless
Are we wrong with all this complaining?
We're top but it still isn't good enough in my book
Great tackle by Evra on Jaime Mackie.
GET IT OVER WELBECK!!!!!!!
welbeck wins a United corner.
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SCHOLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That's what happens when you shoot!!!
Usless corner from Giggs.
YESSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!
2-0 UNITED A SUPERB LONG RANGE FINISH FROM SCHOLES!
PAUL SCHOLES... SCORES GOALS!
Now score a few more!
The old man is there to rescue us.His first vs QPR since 1996.
Valencia runs in the box... again.. the pass is off
If you look at the replay you will see that Raffa will get a credit for an assist despite a poor match.
Again, Hughes will complain about the pen and the red but he can't argue United deserves to win
Tommy Smith and SWP are coming on
We are quite right to complain. Just stating the facts.
Tommy smith for Taraabt and SWP for Bothroyd.
WE WANT MORE UNITED!
WE WANT MORE UNITED!
I don't know about technology all the time. It is too much of on running game but I would definitely be up for this one!
Retrospective review of dives after the game. If proven beyond doubt by a panel, give them an eight-game ban. If doubt, no ban but who'll take the chance? Should stamp it out. Takes pressure off refs, we often need two or three looks to be certain."
We are now 8 points up and a goal up too
Let's hope Arsenal can extend that lead as well as us in the last 18 minutes
I agree. Let's go for it!
How was that a yellow!
Scholes comes off for Cleverley... well done Scholsey
Talking about dives, was that a dive or slip by Raffa?
Good... Rafa off for Jones
That's all three subs used.. better not get an injury
I second that UWS. Scholes is definitely MOTM as he is replaced by a younger version of himself in Cleverley and as I requested at halftime Jones is on for Raffa.
COME ON ARSENAL
COME ON ARSENAL
COME ON ARSENAL
Did you hear that there is a remake of warren Zevon's "Warewolfs of London?"It is called "The Toothless Warewolves of Terry Connor."
OOH, off the bar by Carrick... AS I SAID.. SHOOT
It was the post
OH OFF THE POST FROM CARRICK FROM VIRTUALLY THE SAME POSITION THAT SCHOLES SCORED. A great shot.
I missed it.. pretty funny
