and thats what drove us to the title.
And on the subject of rio, he missed his drugs test the day following this match, after only returning from injury for this match, wheather he would have passed we will never know.

THERES ONLY ONE KEOWN :clap:
Ahem...

I was there on that faithfull day at Old Trafford, Paddy kicked out at Ruud, and was red-carded for intent. Diego was then brought down in the box, this has never been in dispute, the penalty was just. OK, Ruud then missed the pen, which i agree, was probably the most important kick of the Premiership season as far as our two clubs are concerned. However, Utd out-played Arsenal for large periods of the game, and deserved to win despite all the other drama. What happened at the end of the game was ridiculous, and shown the true bitter and twisted nature of a number of the Arsenal players. Imagine what the FA would have done if Utd players had acted similar at Highbury. I'd bet my life the punishment would have been far more severe than the laughable fines and couple of game bans dished out for your boyz. I guess having your Chief Executive in at the FA works wonders...

On the subject of Rio, he actualy took, and passed the test a mere twenty-four hours after he missed the original. So therefore any drugs that might have been in his system the day before, would still have been there. But they weren't. Anyone who actualy believes for a second that Rio might have been using drugs is talking straight out of their rear-end. The punishment Rio recieved was un-just and criminal in my opinion. It's like you say though, Utd recieve 'special treatment'.

Where have you been all season anyway? A member on Blackout since last year, yet you've only just found your way into the Sports Hall now that Arsenal have romped to victory in the Premiership...
