I got my train ticket paid for, I had a 4 course chinese banquest in Dragon House in China Town paid for, followed by beer at the stadium!! I got a free programme too!
Newcastle were first to score and as I was in the Newcastle area I kept quiet! By the time it got to 2-1 the woman in front of me sussed I was a Man United fan! When it got to 2-2 the woman in front to my right, who had been untterly disgusted by the away fans swearing and crude songs turned to her husband and was really put out that I wasn't cheering Newcastle and made her feelings to him clear! I really thought Man United were going to get a 2-1 victory!
Newcastle played a lot better than I expected and to be honest a draw was a good reflection of the game.
Few pics I took on my phone:
Man United fans top left corner:
Wasn't quick enough and Heinze and O'Shea had gone by time I'd took it!

Draw was a fair enough result although I thought Manchester United did more to shade it. When Saha was injured I was gutted to see Park come on. The bloke is crap. He loses the ball far too easily and he cant pass most of the time. Yes he runs around but that's it.

A fair result, even if we did hit the post and have two cleared off the line.
I do rate Park, but not so much at the moment. I'll give him a little slack as he's coming back from a three month layoff, but he's certainly no replacement for Giggs. Time to bring in Nani, perhaps.

I wouldn't say he doesn't have the class to be at the club (I'd take him over Richardson and Fletcher on the wing any day of the week), and I think there's a little more to come. That said, I am a sucker for a workhorse, so perhaps that's blurring my judgement slightly.
Completely agree with Rooney though. His form has been up and down more times than one of his wrinkly hookers this season. He'll come good with a bang, always does.
