Boy with red hair and the red shirt

Paul Scholes“Destiny” is such an abused word in everyday football language! Everything and everyone seems to be “destined” for something or other. “We were always destined to win this or that game” or “The boy was destined for greatness” How often have you heard the word used, many times without any real justification?

Well, if destiny was ever going to be met it was always going to be at Molineux on Saturday evening.

Forget Liverpool defeat…How Man United can bounce back

Sir  Alex to bounce  backAfter losing against Liverpool at Anfeild, there were areas which Fergie must concern about. We don’t have to hit back into refs every time we lose, even it was clear that we deserved a penalty and Jamie Carragher should have been dismissed for tackling Michael Owen.
