Nothing to do with the Premiership, but assuming this sandbox adventure is going to be short-lived it doesn't seem worth starting a European football one. United manage to win 1-0 in a dull game that had 0-0 written all over it thanks to one of those Thierry-Henry-taking-it-quickly free-kicks from Giggs. Lille go apeshit and half the team walk off the pitch and it looks like the game won't restart. Final ten minutes or so played out to a chorus of boos and missiles raining down. Meanwhile in the first half the United end was dangerously overcrowded and some people tried to climb over the fences. The French police (evidently trained by their colleagues from South Yorkshire) cunningly respond by firing tear gas into the stand and then smashing fuck out of anyone they can with their batons.

I couldn't work out whether Fergie was more livid with the Lille staff for trying to drag the players off, or with Gary Neville for getting stuck in when he really didn't need to.

That Giggs free kick was marvellous, as was Larsson's dummy-then-chip that very nearly came off. Not sure about the Vidic push at all, but it's always amusing to watch Andy Townsend get in a tizzy.

That match was ugly. French police not really covering themselves with glory. Lille to be fined, ohh, 300 quid?

Steve Nash wants to buy Tottenham! Steve Nash! Apparently his did is from there, and hes always been a spurs fan (ironic, as a former maverick!)
