I Knew It!!!!

It turns out that Manchester United (I'll only mention the name if it's a slander post) really are a bunch of lying cheaters. Tim Howard, the American star goalkeeper, was on loan to Everton from Man U, so Man U was still paying him. This creates conflicting interests when Man U plays Everton, as Tim Howard's opponent is paying him, so the FA has a rule that a player can not play against the team he is on loan from, so when Man U plays Everton, Tim Howard can't play. However, Everton bought Tim Howard to keep him for good, so Everton started paying his wages, but Man U made a gentleman's agreement with Everton where Man U got Everton to not play Tim Howard if they were still in the title race. In other words, they cheated. No worries for Sir Alex though, Man u can divert the attention away from their obvious cheating and turn it to the almost harmless transfers of Argentines Tevez and Mascherano to West Ham. Disgusting - and no better than the shenanigans of Italy. This article touches on both topics.
