They're off from sunny SFL. Bring some of that to Harlingen
Some slick passing from the Toffees and a left curler from Osman is just wide.
They played like this during Moyes's time in charge of the Toffees/
Dembele wins a corner off of Timmy from a poor back pass from Distin. the corner was cleared by the first man.
The Toffees counter and Mirallis has a shot come off of Danny Rose for a corner as he went past Vertonghen. The corner was cleared then a superb save by Lloris from Osman as he turned a long range pile driver around the post. Then Osman heads just wide off the corner. what a start from Osman.
Osman straight at Lloris as Naismith outmuscled Danny Rose and got past Vertonghen to set up Osman
Pienaar fouls Paulinho about 35 yards from goal
OH! Despite the distance , the free kick from Eriksen was inches over as it brushed the top of the net.
Dembele wins a corner off of McCarthy with some trickery , but the corner from Eriksen was cleared by the first man
I meant to say that the Toffees never played like this when Moyes was in charge.
Some international managers are in the stands as Woy and wales manager, Chris Coleman, are in attendance
Lloris saves easily from Coleman
Great cross from Danny Rose and Ade was unable to connect or else the Spuds would have taken the lead.

Distin heads the free kick across the box and McCarthy wins a corner off of Dawson, who heads away the corner.

Morning, MUR! Thanks for starting us off this morning, as I had a bit of a lie-in.

Good morning mate. I had a late lie in yesterday and missed four goals. It was a decent first half.

Ross Barkley is on for Pienaar.
GOAL !!! ADE GIVES THE SPUDS THE LEAD.
QUICK free kick by Kyle walker at the halfway line and Ade got behind Distin, then beat Timmy at the near post.
That man Adebayor again. He's on a tear under Tim Sherwood's reign.
Etienne Capoue on for Pualinho
He sure is. How has your weekend been?
It's been brilliant. I've been setting up for a party that I'm hosting today. But it's bloody snowing again!
Delofeu returns from a spell out due to injury as he's on for Naismith and Aiden McGeady is on for Leon Osman.
wishing you well. we had some rubbish weather this week, but it's starting to improve today
Dafoe on for Lennon in one of his final appearances for the Spuds
Glad to hear it.
Dembele booked for a poor foul on Barry in midfield.
Cheers mate. Did you see that I answered your question about the reunion. My apologies for the vague response.
Three minutes of stoppage time.
I saw that - no other responses, though. I'm assuming that the other lads are mulling it over. I can't wait!
Dafoe has a shot come off of Timmy for a corner on the counter
Spurs take it short and run out the clock as they defeat the Toffees 1-0 and move up to fifth ahead of the Toffees.
As soon as I know my plans I will let you know where I stand on the reunion. I will do everything in my power to make it happen.
That sounds brilliant mate.
Gooner won't be pleased by that result. Are you sticking around for the late one?
I sure am. Unite need to defeat the bottom club on Muelensteen's return to OT.
An unhappy weekend for the Gooner.
Maybe I'll text UWS to see if he's around.
You should be able to murder Fulham in their current form.
The teams lining up at OT:
United - Twilight, Rafa, Smalling, Vidic, Evra, Fletch, Carrick, Yashley, Roon, Mata, RVP.
Subs - Rio, Giggsy, Lindy, Chicha, Valencia, Kagawa, Janu.
Fulham - Stekelenberg, Riether, Burn, Heitinger, Riise, Tunnicliffe, Sidwell, Kvist, Richardson, Holtby, Tankovic.
Subs - Hangeland, Kacanikic, Stockdale, Duff, Cole, Parker, Bent.
UWS just texted me that he won't be around because he lost control of the computer this morning. He said he will be around in spirit.
The teams are out on the pitch amidst the pomp and circumstance.
A minute's silence to commemorate the anniversary of the Munich air disaster
They're off from OT
COME ON MAN UNITED!
rvp WELL OFFSIDE ON THE OPENING POSSESSION. mORE LIKE RVW.
Fulham's lineup wreaks of sheer desperation.
Come on, United!
Raffa wins a corner off of Risse.
I got that text from UWS too; I'm hoping that he can regain control of the computer at some point. He is the paterfamilias, after all.
The corner from Mata is headed away then he puts in a useless cross.
One would think
I've got a link going through First Row for Sky Sports coverage with Martin Tyler and The Neviller commentating.
I agree that we should murder Fool Ham, but my concern is United's current form
I am watching on USA.
Dan Burn heads out a cross from Yashley for a corner . Nice pass from Carrick
Kieran Richardson leads a Fool Ham counter as Stecklenburg punched away the United corner.
It's pouring in Manchester, as usual.
Bleeding Heck. RVP tool too long to shoot and should have given United the lead.
I'm still over at Kate's place, working on my laptop while she's working on her desktop.
Nice through ball from Room as RVP challenges Steckelnburg and somehow is called for a foul
Mick Hucknall from Simply Red sitting next to Fergie.
Well done mate. UWS not happy
UWS observed that too, but I completely missed it
Risse heads out a cross from Yashley for a corner as Roon took too long to shoot.
Yeah - but that's typical for UWS. He's only happy if United are piling it on and winning 5-0.
Bloody hell - UWS really won't be happy now - Sidwell has scored for Fulham!
BLOODY HELL !!!! SIDWELL VOLEYS FULHAM INTO THE LEAD OFF A CROSS FROM HOLTBY. USELESS DEFENDING FROM UNITED, WHO GAVE SIDWELL THE FREEDOM OF MANCHESTER
You have to say that was a brilliantly worked goal, with a lovely floated by in from Holtby to Sidwell who finished well on the volley.
The Neviller is as unhappy as you lot are.
RVP misses a sitter of a cross from Raffa.
Bloody hell - how did RVP miss that one?!
I stated earlier that I was concerned based on our current form. UWS is definitely upset about the defending on the goal as is Yours Truly,.
Yeah - but Fulham are absolute pants these days. I can't believe you're going to drop points to them.
Me either. We really suck. I think your United could beat ours.
I doubt it. We struggled to beat bloody Yeovil yesterday. But a win's a win right now.
STecklenburg does well to save a header from Evra off a cross from Mata.
Not a bad effort there from Carrick on the volley.
It sure is.You should be pleased.
Rvp nods down a cross from Fletch , but where were the red shorts to put that away?
Fulham are off the bottom temporarily with Cardiff sliding to the bottom.
Dan Burn heads out a free kick from Roon. Poor cross from Young straight to Stecklenburg
Our Uniteds both faced the cellar dwellers this weekend.
I am pleased. A week ago, I thought we'd just sacked our manager and lost our top scorer. Now they're both still there. Apparently Michael Brown teased Brian at Monday's training by walking up to him and saying, "So where were you on Saturday, boss?"
Nice one Brownie. Hope he didn't foul Brian
I'm sure he left his foot in at some point. Brownie can't help himself.
Oh - the ManYoo reject Richardson nearly added a second goal.
Tankovic leads a counter off a clearance from Richardson of a united corner and Richardson shoots over with just Twighlight to beat
Great save by Stecklenburg from Carrick then RVP has a shot blocked for a corner
Vidic heads straight to Stecklenburg off the corner from Mata. Should have been 1-1.
Fletch should have tied it up off a tasty pass from Mata. Completely missed it.
He's not the guy you want on the end of those chances.
United piling on the pressure now - they should score before the interval.
evra offside from a pass by Roon. Fulham camping out in their own box.
I sure hope so, but I'm not betting on it.
An unusually poor cross from Mata.
UWS just called me a "plonker" for not having a fancy smart phone. I've given him a yellow card for dissent.
Great pass from Carrick to Yashley, but his poor cross is nearly put in for an OG by Risse. Head tennis from the corner from Mata then Evra heads right to Stecklenburg
A minute of stoppage time as Raff is fouled just outside the box.
THe free kick from Mata is headed out and Roon cuts out a pass from Richardson on the counter.
POOR corner from Holtby and Fulham lead by that goal from sidwell.
Half time at OT - some restless noises in the crowd but no boo boys.
Definite yellow for UWS. He knows I don't have a Smart phone and never said anything.
Darren Bent, the king of missed sitters , is on for Tankovic as the second half is underway
STOP SUCKING MAN UNITED!
SCORE OFTEN UNITED!
Useless cross from Raffa
United with 73% of the possession and 27 touches in the box to Fulhams' three and46 crosses to Fulham's one. Barca types stats, but who is leading?
I agree - come on, United. Pull your fingers out.
BLOODY HELL !!! Nice pass from Mata to RVP, who puts in a nice cross, but not one red shirt up to connect
Sidwell blasts well over.
we need Chicha off the bench so someone can tuck away a chance.
WHAT do Man United and the Black Hole have in common?
USeless finish from Roon off a nice long ball from Mata.
A happy return to OT for Muelensteen and Butch

Better from United/
Raffa offside as Stecklenburg saves his header off a cross from Young.
United with 81% possession in the second half, but yet to score.
It's a matter of time, no?
RVP is claiming a handball there but the ref isn't interested.
Definite hand ball by Dan Burn. How was that nota penalty? Looked blatant./
I wouldn't count on it. Doesn't seem to be United's day.
Jan on as UWS ordered. The coach will be pleased.
Useless from Roon . Never a free kick
Jan on for Fletch. I agree 100%
Poor first cross from Jan.
USeless cross from Raffa into the side netting.
Heitinga cuts out a cross from Yashley for a corner. Carrick heads over from the corner from Yashley.
Valencia on for Rafa - a good positive attacking move. Chicha on for Yashley as well. I like it.
Valencia for Raffa and Chicha for yashley as it's the final roll of the dice for Moyes. Butch teasing Chicha.
JUST wide from Roon.
I heard that UWS wanted United to start with nine forwards. Is that really true?
Twenty minutes to go for United to rescue this one.
Holtby down off a crunching challenge from Vidic.
I would have loved to have seen Roberto Martinez take over at OT.
Atrocious cross from Jan.
RVP blocks a shot from Carrick!
Hull scored six against this lot in one half. Maybe you need to sign Fatty Huddlestone?
YES !!!! RVP SCRAMBLES HOME A GOAL FROM CLOSE RANGE
GOAL! Finally - RVP equalizes!
Now - go and win it!
YESSSSSSSSSSS!!!!! 2-1 CARRICK SCORES.
GOAL! THEY'VE JUST GONE AND DONE IT!
Carrick with a deflected shot past Stek.
Cross from jan cleared and Carrick with a great finish. Great cross by Mata for the first goal off a poor clearance from across by Evra.
Just what the doctor ordered, eh? What a turnaround! Fulham now dead and buried.
I changed shirts just before United equalized . Jacquelyn snuck the shirt there last night. Also, the sun just came out . It's been foggy all morning.
Good mojo, mate.
UWS thinks that United will still blow it. But he has no faith.
Oh - nearly a third for Chicha.
OH ! RVP misses a sitter . Should have been a third.
