    I think they have tried all season to play decent football; I'm pleased they are now getting some reward.
    Well summed up. They were somewhat unlucky earlier on.

    Full credit to Leicester for sticking with Pearson.

    Rooney actually let Mata take the penalty:o Fair play to him for letting Mata take it.

    Rooney had no say in the matter.

    United take the lead against Palace, Mata converting what I thought was a fairly awarded penalty. Can United win without Carrick?

    Could end up as a draw. Right now it is. Smalling has let Crystal Palace get a free kick due to them getting a free kick because of him holding back a Crystal Palace player.:o

    Fellaini, who should have been sent off already for yet another elbow, puts United back in front.

    Unsurprisingly Young creates a fine chance, converted by Fellaini assisted by awful goalkeeping by Speroni, the complete opposite of the excellent de Gea just a few minutes ago. Good entertaining game.

    Newcastle down 1-0 to a set piece goal; the way they are unable to defend at set pieces against West Brom, makes me wonder exactly what the coach has been doing with the team. Truly pathetic.......

    Don't you know he is the best coach in the Premier League? :D

    You've not been listening properly, no one has ever said he's the best 'football' coach nowhave they? perhaps he's brilliant at guitar hero and thus his statement is logically true ;)

    On first watching , I would have agreed with you

    On watching again, Falcao pushed the defender into him so I don't think you can call it awful

    I didn't notice that but if true its the first useful thing Falcao has done for the team in a Man Utd shirt.

    Brilliant.

    Falcao has been so bad he has scored the same miserable number of goals in a similar number of games to that other contender for flop of the season, Balotelli.

    Haha. All the team fans facing relegation, apart from QPR fans, will be hoping for a Man City win today. Watch Man City go and lose now.:D

    Apart from that Man City goal, QPR seem to be playing well. I think they will end up scoring next.

    Shamelessly stolen from another forum.

    Election summary for those who missed it:

    Tories: 331 seats
    Labour: 232 seats
    Lib Dems: 8 seats
    UKIP: 1 seat
    Man City: 15,000 empty seats

    Awful goal for them to conceed to make it two nil.

    A soft free kick clearly going into the wall, but the wall had so many gaps it tricked into the hapless Greens net!

    I'm watching the Preston vs Chesterfield game, Preston 3-0 up[4-0 agg] Beckford scored a cracker from the halfway line.

    WOW, three QPR players all at least a couple of yards offiside was ignored by the linesman. The fact that they missed an open goal from 1 yard out saves the awful officiating here.

    QPR are a truly shocking side, just laughable, Austin aside.

    The defence and keeper are laughable. Even charlie austin seems to have forgot that the offside rule exists today.

    Harry Redknapp is responsible for this absolute mess.

    The owners will also have to fork out up to £50m from their parachute payment for the fine thats waiting for them in the champinship.

    I think QPR were playing well in the first half. I can see a side like Liverpool putting a bid in for Austin if QPR do go down.

    City could get double figures here if they don't take their foot off the pedal

    I agree. I feel bad for Chris Ramsey. It won't be his fault if QPR get relegated, but no doubt some people will blame him.

    QPR :D

    I can't be the only one who's amused by the karma of them getting relegated at the Etihad.

    QPR were very fortunate to be promoted in the first place, with one of the most undeserved play-off wins in history. They were destined to struggle unless they spent a fortune, which thankfully FFP prevented. It'll be refreshing to see the likes of Bournemouth and Watford instead.
