    I am surprised United did not protest more about the semi final venue


    The bigger the stadium, the greater income for both teams in terms of ticket money. Makes sense.

    And when the spectators are split 50/50 with fans for each team, any "home advantage" is minimal anyway.

    Haven't read any comments from United about the semi final venue. Find that very strange.

    Hard to say that eh ?

    But yes...this time i agree....the lesser of 2 evils old pal hahaha ;)

    This is basically a home game for the scum...and does the BBC cameraman fancy that ugly bird in the vest in the scum end,he keeps showing her .

    The lesser of two evils, indeed! Having Sp*rs out is all that matters here!
    What bird? I'll guess she'll be in front of the camera again soon enough.

    Fair points though I doubt Spurs would have welcomed playing this game at Old Trafford

    Yeah. Shame for West Brom Darren Moore didn't take over sooner. This is the best I've seen them for a long, long time.

    He knows the club and the way it works..that makes a massive difference.

    It really does. Wonder if the club takes the chance of signing him as a manager or not? From what I've read, he's well liked by the players.

    I doubt it...they should for sure,but i think they will go for someone else probably.

    That's probably more likely, yes. Hope they keep him around in a coaching capacity, though.

    They would be mad not too,especially as he was a central defender.

    They'll need to defend if they're not going to end up like Sunderland!

    Likewise I can't stand Alli either, he will be a walking red card for England

    He can quickly become liability, that's for sure. The 'Divey Alli' nickname is already well known outside England. Add to that the temper…

    Might be wrong, but I think they have won two trophies since I was born.
