Man Utd's Rooney facing probe over '12th man' claims
Submitted by tribalfootball.com on Mon, 11/09/2009 - 03:08
Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney could be in hot water with the FA after last night's 1-0 defeat at Chelsea.
The Daily Mail says Rooney was booked for dissent after Chelsea's goal and then appeared to mouth "12th man" into a television camera as he left the pitch after the match.
United boss Sir Alex Ferguson and ref Martin Atkinson have had previous disputes. The United boss called him "a robber" after a defeat by Portsmouth in an FA Cup quarter- final in March last year and his assistant then, Carlos Queiroz, joined in. Both were charged by the FA but later cleared.

agger sucks by the way
some people from chelsea have won the cl, like deco, carvalho, ferreira, belletti, bosingwa... granted chelsea as a club have not.
see that's the difference... I and I'm sure Chelsea would rather win 2 league titles in the last 5years instead of 1 champs league, in fact any year i would rather win the league over any other competition, and most people would agree.
Win or lose, up the Blues!
Liverpool can't beat Birmingham, what a stunning goal by Jerome :)

If you have your head screwed in correctly and are sane beyond all doubt you could see what happened in the match ... BUT the mad see only what they want to see ... I pity you, your condition, that is, so laugh on. Chelsea needed a 12th man to win. With a whole lot of cheats in a team that had a few gentlemen who can roll several times when untouched, have spasms and recover miraculously, a bunch of ninnies, aided by a blinkered referee, what a win it was for Ancelotti and his 'men'!
"12th man"? oh yeah you manchester faggots played with a 12th man! the referee didn't showed the red card to karate kid evans for his wonderful kick to drog, allowed 5 "fergie time" minutes when it should have been 2 and made himself blind for some nasty tackles that were worth yellow cards, but eventhough you could'n win! and know criticize your friend referee?? hahaha how pathetic you are manure
