Superb. I would have done exactly the same thing.
Ole Gunnar was a decent player. Mental to take the cardiff job but money talks to fair enough.

So if that was the last minute of a playoff final that we were winning 1-0 and one of Brighton's players was running back in similar fashion you wouldn't want them to do the same?
Football is all about winning.

I would be ashamed if that happened to us. A tainted victory is not a victory.

I play as everyone else plays. To win. No one thinks of Ole Gunnar's foul when they think of all of Sir Alex's trophy achievements.

Bit of a risk for Solskjaer. Will be interesting to see how he does and how he deals with Tan.
Agree.
But most think Man U are a bunch of ***** though. I'd rather win with class and honesty intact.

Well the person who posted the You Tube clip did, and It triggered my memory of many similar events. To their shame, Arsenal were guilty of the exact same situation in the FA Cup final against Southampton
Just as when Moyes claimed a couple of weeks ago that Januzaj " Isn't getting the protection from referee's he should and that he is being fouled too often. It reminded me of the time when United targeted Fabregas one game with lots of heavy unfair challenges, some from behind, which kicked him out of the match.
Yes, play to win but not at all costs as that only gains you a hollow victory, maybe you should read Vitaï Lampada ?

When I think of man Utd I think of the most successful team in English history. I think of winners and great players like best, cantona, Ronaldo....
I don't think of one little foul.
We only hate them because they're a great club... It's just sour grapes isn't it.
I think of a purple-nosed moaner leading a bunch of whinge bags. They might be a successful English club but I do not place them up there with the greats of Europe or the world which generally reached their triumphs which much more grace.

Don't start going all Man Utd centric it's not just them, I'm sure you are well aware of the prefix often given when mentioning Leeds United ? Juxtapose that wtih all the excitement we had under Gus when he was at his best, wasn't it lovely to win more games than we lost AND play with flair ?

I'm pretty sure it was against West Ham, one of the Allen clan got hauled down I do believe. Wasn't it one of the reasons they bought in a straight red for a professional foul? I don't think Arsenal played Saints in the cup final, didn't they beat Man Utd?
I might be wrong as my memory is a bit fuzzy.

That may be another one but I recall Willie Young cynically scything some one down in the manner of OGS. I'm getting fuzzy too !
It was Willie Young.

Had to check. It was Willy Young against Paul Allen, who at only 17 was distraught. Young only received a yellow.
For some reason the wiki link won't post
The latter. Big contract, short tenancy and pay-off.

Agreed. He'll be out the door by May, with all the blame placed on Tan, so not affecting his future employment prospects - In fact, his profile over here will be enhanced IMO.
A no lose situation for Ollie.
