Rooney Blows for United
champions league, news, players, premiership August 6th, 2008
It’s late night here in Bali and i’m just waking up with a big headache, but i think i found some important updates down here.
Rooney might be out injured, while Anderson serving Brazil is at the Olympics, Nani serve his suspension and Ronaldo is still in recovery after his ankle injury. Sure we have Tevez, Carrick, Sholesy, Giggs, Hargo and everyone else at the team but the first game of 08/09 game is very near. It’s not a comfortable news though since we’ll face Juventus for the last pre-season friendly match followed by title celebration, facing Portsmouth in the Charity Shield and start the season with a match against Newcastle. So i really hope Rooney can get well soon.
However, i’ve just realized that our double silverware celebration last season was covered the Celtic chaotic fans that made the local police hold the title parade and of course by Ronaldo saga whole summer long. But now everything seems so much clearer (minus our several 1st teamer out for various reasons) the new season will soon get started and everyone seems to focus on that. And least but not last, SAF confirmed the Ronaldo saga is over. So, i do think this will be a good time to celebrate our Champions League and Premiere League winners celebration now, not a month ago. Consider the last 4-5 weeks as a holiday for most of the squad until finishing 10 months of busy competitions in high.
Maybe it’s all in the agenda of God. He blesses the Red Devils.
Come on you reds.

Things are Getting Hotter
news July 11th, 2008
I am still not sure why Blatter jump into Ronaldo debate by saying inappropriate things, but then this article at Machester Evening News and this post from Soccerlens are very cool response to the claims from the FIFA boss. Could anyone please let me know where i could sign to be a 6 figures modern slave?
Related to this news, The Sun also runs for online petition on to Boot the FIFA boss here.
In other news, still in Ronaldo’s frame, Becks jump into nonsense on this Ronaldo saga. WTF do you mean tough choice Beck? As your long time fan, i don’t understand why you put his mouth on this already hot debate, i really think this is none of your business.
However, The Republic of Mancunia responded in a very cool way in which i totally agree. Please Beck, shut up now.
Yes things are getting hotter, i really hope we can continue to fight immoral Real Madrid for our own sake.
Miscelaneous Ramblings
news July 10th, 2008
I’m having a super bad cold. I can do nothing but sleep, eat and well, reply some emails and writing this post. However, some updates need to be address here since i think is quite important:
1. Sepp Blatter has blasted Manchester United and accusing the club as Modern Slaves. To quote the FIFA boss:
“I think in football there’s too much modern slavery in transferring players or buying players here and there, and putting them somewhere,”
“I’m always in favour of protecting the player and if the player, he wants to leave, let him leave.
“The important thing is, we should also protect the player,” he said.
“If the player wants to play somewhere else, then a solution should be found because if he stays in a club where he does not feel comfortable to play then it’s not good for the player and for the club.”
Anyone who wants to be a slave who gets £100.000+ a week salary please raise your hands.
2. Soccerlens has made a must read post for all Manchester United fan: 10 Highlights From Manchester United’s Double-Winning 07/08 Season.
3. The Republik of Mancunia has a cool thought on Huntelaar outclasses Ramsey which i am totally agree.
4. I’m trying my best to keep Reds Conspiracy as the only small Manchester Blog who make it in the first page for Google Search at terms Manchester United Blog. Made some small but important tweaks on this site structure especially a new and shorter permalinks, hope it pays off in the future.
Can’t wait for the new season but i need to get some sleep now, thanks for reading.
Come on you Reds.
A Transfer Rumour and European Cup
news June 18th, 2008
Heard rumour linking Reds with Eto’o. No way dude, not another dude who says ‘i’ instead of ‘we’ kinda player. Saw him trashing his teammates and respectable coach in front of TV that streamed to worldwide sport audiences. There’s Hutelaar, why should we sign Eto’o? Let the Italian clubs or Chelsea have him.
However, i continue to miss European Cup matches. But i hope the the Germans can beat Portugal in quarter final, even tough the chance is slim. But, the future you’ll never know.
Top Fixtures Ahead of Reds
SAF, fixtures, news, other teams June 16th, 2008
Some quick updates.
I don’t watch the European Cup because by far i feel i don’t have to. I do watch the France demolition of Edwin’s Orange 4-1, which i tip to beat Portugal if both team has ever meet at later stage. Dude Holland rocks. But by far that’s the only game i watch. Maybe i will watch more game later as the competition has heaten up to reach the quarter final. I don’t know, let’s see if i can find the time (it’s later night here in Bali).
Anyhow next season EPL fixtures is already out. Reds will open the game against Kevin Keegan’s Newcastle, then followed by 2 last season’s big four teams away from OT in the first 5 games.
In other news, you might want to check these news; SAF to quit Reds if The Glazers sell Ronaldo without his permission and we have the chance to lose Queiroz to Portugal national team. Then who will manage the team then? Well, Big Phil can do it if the price is right, as his appointment as being the next Chelski boss has set him to buy everyone. Also, after losing his regular left back spot at Reds to become first choice at Real Madrid, Gabriel Heinze has become unreal.
Anyway, find next season’s full fixtures here. It’s tough, we can’t afford a kind of last year’s slow start.
Come on you reds.
Steve Bruce has give us a Favor and Rio still with us!
Support, fixtures, heroes, legend, match results, news, other teams, players, premiership April 15th, 2008
Steve Bruce, a Manchester United legend, who is now managing Wigan, has give us a favor by held Chelsea at their backyard 1-1. It was last minute equaliser from Heskey that gives the Champion closer to retain their back to back title.
In other good news, Rio Ferdinand, the suposedly Ronaldo main contender on this year’s PFA award, has agreed to pen a new 5 year deal with the club.
I can see that the Reds will going stronger except that SAF and The Gang can’t make the most of the remaining fixtures. I sincerely hope no more experiment line up from the boss, as me and millions of Manchester United fans will love to see we can retain our title this season.
Don’t bother on what Chelsea are doing, what we can do and will do is the most important. That’s how we win the title last season.
Whatever is sweet, as long as we win the title. Come on you Reds!
Critical Stage of European Football Season
champions league, news, premiership March 18th, 2008
As the season goes by, we are now reach the critical stage. We’re top at the premiere league and hold the same point with Arsenal but top them by cool 8 goal difference and differ only 3 points with 3rd place Chelsea. We have a game in hand as well as Chelsea and will finish it off tomorrow against Bolton, who beat us earlier this season, at home. I can see many advantages in our side, but Chelsea is also having much as they still have home match against us and Arsenal. Isn’t it all make sense if i predict Chelsea will overcome Arsenal in terms of Table position, and we can keep the silverware in Old Trafford?
In other news, Manchester United and AS Roma delegation reportedly hold talk about the security concerns for the visiting fans. We all remember that bloody day when our fans was beaten badly by Roma authorities in two occasions. I sincerely hope the club can manage this one as they need to be able to guard the fans toward this important match.
Back to Premiership, we’re going to face Bolton. We need the win.
Come on you Reds!
FIFA: Premier League 39th Game a No-Go!
news March 15th, 2008
Confirmed. As i have covered this earlier, there was a chance for abroad fans to watch EPL matches LIVE. But apparently, FIFA has anonimously confirmed that they opposing the plan. So no EPL games abroad, i just need to make more money so i can go to Old Trafford. Fine.
In other news, FIFA has also oppose the goal line technology and plan to apply six homegrown players in every starting XI.
