In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) was joined by comedian Ali Woods to look back at the best and worst moments of a rollercoaster season with the annual United Hour Awards.
Has Ten Hag been sacked yet? We're not sure and we hope not, but it's looking more likely as the days pass.
Who should replace him and why is it taking so long to make a decision?
Can I be the first to say:
Bollocks.
Bollocks.
cant be true ffs
I just heard. It really is bollocks. All Chelsea get is a fine.
£15k fine as well, incredibly harsh.
Harsh. Very harsh. Could feck us over a bit too. We don't have that good a backup.
Should I laugh or cry? Congrats O'Shea.
What complete crap; anything to upset our season.
Can Rafael play LB or what about Fabio?
Ridiculous
Well, that's just fecking bollocks. All that can be said about it.
I'd completely forgotten about the incident as well.
Looks like O'Shea will be getting a few games much to most people's displeasure.
The one bright side for people who don't like O'Shea is that that will mean more games for Rafael.

Is Fabio fit yet?
So is that five matches he'll miss including the one game ban for 5 yellows?
So, when is this ban starting?
That's all I've got.
We need it to come into effect either immediately or from the Tottenham match onwards if we want him back for the Chelsea match. And nobody here needs reminding how important that day will be.
that is fecking ridiculous
that Morgan smashed someone's skull and didnt get any ban at all - FA are a bunch of cnuts.

Fergie's reaction to this would be interesting to hear though.
o'shea to return to his former glory!
feck, this is injustice
fecking shitheads at the FA ¨!
Can't believe it! Absolutely shocked. Ridicolous! Burn the FA headquarters down!
so Saf knew of the possibility of this and that's why he kept O'shea in form and used him game by game
fecking joke. Even that cnut Keown got off lighter for his antics in the infamous match when Ruud smacked the crossbar.
I would like to hope that this is a bad joke set up by Nick, but knowing the way the FA work (against us, that is) this would not surprise me.
so its 5 games with the yellow card thing ? The World Cup thing has come just in time to keep him fit then
The World Cup thing has come just in time to keep him fit thenI fecking can.
fecking ridiculous. A FOUR match ban for a bit of handbags that occured an hour after the game? Absolute joke.
Manchester United defender Patrice Evra has been banned for four matches from 22nd December and fined £15,000 after the Football Association found him guilty of improper conduct

Its like they wanted him banned against Chelsea.
Can we appeal? although I suppose there isnt much point with the twats at the FA?
O'Shea - O'noes !
O'Shea - O'noes !
You must ask - if a West Brom or Fulham player did this would they recieve such a hefty punishment?
Of course they fecking wouldn't.
Of course they fecking wouldn't.
conspiracies don't exist in football ...
ban starts dec 22nd
...ban starts dec 22nd
I hope Fabio is as good as his brother

A Regulatory Commission hearing today reached its verdict on charges issued as a result of an incident during a warm-down session following Chelsea's match against Manchester United at Stamford Bridge on 26 April.
The Commission issued the following statement:
The Regulatory Commission found a charge of improper conduct against Mr Evra proved on all four elements of the charge.
The Commission found that his conduct during a warm down session following the Chelsea v Manchester United, Premier League fixture on 26 April 2008, was improper in that:
a) Mr Evra pushed the Chelsea FC Head Groundsman with his chest (as was admitted by Mr Evra)
b) He struck Mr Sam Bethell, a Groundsman at Chelsea FC, on the side of his head
c) He subsequently, i.e. after the previous incident had begun to calm down, ran back to confront Mr Bethell again (as was also admitted by Mr Evra)
d) Then became involved in a further physical altercation with Mr Bethell.
The Commission considered this was an incident of violent behaviour by Mr Evra which was therefore punished by a suspension for four first team matches as from Monday 22 December 2008 and imposed a fine of £15,000 on Mr Evra.
The Regulatory Commission found two charges against Chelsea FC both proved. On the first charge the Commission found that during the course of the same incidents connected with the warm down by Manchester United FC players, Chelsea FC’s employee, Mr Sam Bethell, had conducted himself in a disorderly fashion and that his conduct and language had been abusive and provocative.
Charges against Mr Bethell had previously been dismissed on the ground that The FA had no jurisdiction over him personally. Chelsea FC were charged that it had failed in its responsibility to ensure that its employee Mr Bethell conducted himself in an orderly fashion and refrained from abusive and provocative conduct and language. The Commission fined Chelsea FC £25,000 on this charge.
An allegation that Mr Bethell had engaged in racist conduct or language was not proved. Accordingly, so far as the charge against Chelsea FC was based on its alleged responsibility for such racist conduct and language by Mr Bethell, the charge against the club was not proved.
A second charge against Chelsea FC of failure to specify in Mr Bethell’s contract of employment by the club that Mr Bethell was directly under the disciplinary control of The FA was upheld but the Commission did not find it appropriate to impose any penalty on that charge.
Mr Evra and Chelsea FC were each ordered to pay half the costs of the Regulatory Commission proceedings.

he might well be but he's barely played....
First game back is the Chelsea game...
I hope it's only 2 PL games and the other are the 2 legs of the CC semi
So Drogba gets three matches for throwing a coin into a crowd potentially disabling a fan.
And Evra gets four matches for defending himself from some Chav thugs.
