Scholes and Rooney See Red as Manure Eat Shit

After Liverpool's 4-1 thumping of Manure at Old Trafford last weekend, Manure's worst defeat at home since 1936, another "record" fell at Craven Cottage, the home ground of the English Premiership soccer club Fulham F.C. Many would be glad that Manure suffered back-to-back league losses for the first time in 147 games. Quite a record to go down tumbling. I salute Fulham for not playing negative soccer. I do not know what Paul Scholes was thinking when he raised both his hands to block a certain goal. To the delirious chants of the Fulham supporters and Manure-haters, Scholes was red-carded for the eigth time in his professional career. Fulham simply did not let Manure play flowing soccer after Danny Murphy converted a superb penalty kick. Manure had threatened briefly after the break. Only for Rooney to revert back to his schoolboy behaviour by throwing the ball away after a second bookable offence. He then stormed down the tunnel knowing that he was at fault, face red. To put icing on the cake, Fulham scored their second goal with three minutes left of normal time. Well, what can I say. Well done, Fulham. And well done, Spurs, who, by defeating Chelsea 1-0, gave Liverpool a good chance to catch up with Manure. This will be the case if Liverpool can beat Aston Villa away. This match promises to be something worth viewing, even for the neutrals.
