I wonder…
Just thought I’d add this post as a bit of an experiment.
I wonder how many cr*p sp*m comments ‘readers’ will try and post. It’s been amusing me for a while now all the spun comments and blatant plugs for websites that have nothing to do with the beautiful game that get posted.
Be interesting to see how these many people follow blindly the so called ‘SEO experts’ advice and comment on blogs without even looking at what they are posting on…
Any bets??
On this day – 1 February 2006
On 1 February 2006, Blackburn winger David Bentley scored the first Premier League hat-trick against Manchester United as Rovers won 4-3.
The match was Bentley’s first as an official Blackburn player–he signed with them the day before after spending the first half of the season with them on loan from Arsenal. Playing at home before a crowd of 25,484, he celebrated the move by putting Rovers ahead in the 35th minute, finishing off a free kick that United keeper Edwin van der Sar tipped onto the bar.
United striker Louis Saha returned the favor in the 37th minute, but a poor clearance from Rio Ferdinand allowed Bentley to double his tally four minutes later. Rovers extended the lead to 3-1 before the break when Lucas Neill converted a 45th-minute penalty kick. Then, in the 56th minute, Robbie Savage found Bentley unmarked in the United box; the winger took the chance, claiming the first hat-trick against United since QPR’s David Bailey did it in January 1992 when the top flight was still called Division One.
United’s Ruud van Nistelrooy, who had come on as a second-half substitute, scored a brace of his own in the 63rd and 68th minutes, but the rally ended when referee Phil Dowd sent Ferdinand off in the 88th minute–Ferdinand’s first career red card, earned by having drawn a second yellow card for a challenge on Savage that left the Welshman with a gash on his shin.
The win completed a Blackburn double over United that season, which ended with Rovers in sixth place and United in second. Bentley left Blackburn for Tottenham in 2008 and is currently on loan with Birmingham.

Wenger admits strategic lies
Can you trust this man? Arsene Wenger admits he’s lied ‘for a good cause’
• Ferguson denies Rooney rift
• Wenger rules out deal for Pires
Ferguson has explained Rooney’s lack of match time in recent weeks by saying the Manchester United striker has had an ankle injury, but Rooney this week told reporters that was never the case.
United boss Ferguson has since brushed off the whole situation but Wenger’s admission adds weight to the possibility that Ferguson had been fibbing about why out-of-form Rooney was being left out.
“If you ask me have I lied to the press to protect a player, I must honestly say yes,” Wenger said. “I didn’t feel comfortable but I had a clear conscience because it was for a good cause. But when I lie to the press I speak beforehand with the player and say: ‘Listen, this is the story we’re going to give.”’
Wenger declined to identify the lies he had told, adding: “If you ask me why I’ve lied I would have to give concrete examples and you find out which player.”
