Blackburn Rovers 21/02/09



A feast of Cristiano Ronaldo. He was inspired. A matching winning performance and a match winning goal. Rafael and Fabio Da Silva took to the pitch together during the warm up. You may get double vision.

Fulham 18/02/09



Paul Scholes had one of his special games, including scoring with a trademark long distance volley. Wayne Rooney came off the bench and scored with his first touch. Berbatov scored, and both he and Tevez had a goal disallowed for off side. This was United's 13th consecutive clean sheet in the Premier League.

Everton 31/01/09



A day when Everton fans and United fans joined voices in a chorus of 'Rafa's cracking up'. The Neville brothers captained a team each. On a freezing cold night, it was a game of few chances. The three points were won with a Cristiano Ronaldo penalty. United stretched their run of consecutive clean sheets.

It was a cold night to start with but the temperature drop at half time sent us to the concourse, where we watched folk chew on pies for fifteen minutes. My hands went numb in the second half.
