    Is Jemal Johnson back with Blackburn, or is he still on loan somewhere? Hopefully the latter, as Blackburn is in the midst of a major forward shortage with Dickov and Bellamy out. If Jemal is there, one would imagine he would play or at least make the bench, and he isn't listed.

    Goal ManU 1-0. Ruud scores - or maybe an own goal?

    Sounds like it was Ruud's goal, but the ball went off a Blackburn defender right to him and Big Brad had no chance. Announcers just saying neither goalkeeper has had a save to make - just the one chance for ManU they scored on.

    Alan Smith came on for an injured Giggs, and then 10 minutes later gets a card for a challenge on Robbie Savage.

    Penalty for ManU called for handball - big chance for Friedel to be the hero here.

    Did you hear what happened? I had to take off the headphones for a few minutes as I got a call from a client. Stupid job interfering with listening to soccer games. ;)

    Ferdinand nudge Savage whilst jogging past him at HT. Savage chased him into the tunnel.

    Everybody followed.

    Did Rossi immediately choose to defend Rio or did he sit back and consider his options? ;)

    2nd half on. Sounds like the tunnel thing didn't come to much.

    This comment just makes me laugh. Translation: WWE Old Trafford. I hope someone gets hurt! (no one important of course)

    Brad "Red Devil Slayer" Friedel has a habit of being pretty good against these guys.

    Now Saha scores, 2-1 to ManU. Sounds like Saha kind of scuffed it across goal, announcer says, "If he meant to do that, it was brilliant."

    Watching on Setanta. Friedel has been fantastic, but just beaten by a fluke goal from Saha. The penalty and second half saves to deny the cheat Van Nistlenose were superb. Hopefully Rovers can get back in it - and take the lead on away goals.

    He didn't - it was a fluke. Blackburn defence making too many mistakes in possession.

    I don't think that matters in the CC.
