On 21st Sept 08, at Stamford Bridge, Manu played with Chelsea where Manu conceded 7 Yellow cards which anybody can hardly imagine, it was fairly a normal game at the start of the 30 mins where Manu have the maximum possession scoring one goal by JS Park but it was when Chelsea was back on track Manu started their final weapon when they're unable to keep the earlier possession & when Chelsea starts thumping on them & which they finally made a goal on 80th min. Among the yellow card holders it was no surprise to me that players like Rooney, Schole concede the cautions as i hardly see them playing a gentlemens game, its a shame that senior player like Schole did such a terrible act. The cards were given after a repeated warnings & players shows no courtesy to the referees or linesmen as you can see how Ferdinand reacts, they complain as if there is special rules for them.....as Mourinho has rightly said on an interview last year that "Manu have a different rules" as all things were in favor of them, it good that referees realize the "double-standard" this year. This time its time for Fergie to be silent & stops complaining as he was furious about John Terry's revocation of red-card in the previous .

I also heard that they got Man United got fined for apparently "failing to control their players conduct" which I think is ridiculous. What is the point of fining a team just because some players get booked? But, I'm afraid I would have to disagree with you into thinking that Man United played a dirty game, because they were simply just getting frustrated on the big occassion.

Ya it might sounds ridiculous things to sue a disciplinary action against a team as a whole, but i agree the decision with it cos as i've already mentioned..its 7 cards right ! this is too many dude, 7 means majority of the team has displayed a very bad conduct...it has to be played within certain framework or rules
