FA awards game to Man U

**GottaWearShades** · 28-1-12,20:22

The FA today awarded the FA Cup tie to Manchester after accepting Patrice Evra's claim that his team in fact scored 6 times. Despite 5 of the goals not being caught by any of the players, the crowd, or the TV cameras, the FA found Mr. Evra a very convincing witness. On other hand, 'we found Mr. Reina's testimony to be totally unreliable. He admitted conceding one goal but was unable to come up with any evidence at all of saving any of the other 5. Since Mr. Reina could not prove he saved 5 goals, we concluded that they must have been scored'. The referee said that he didn't recall 6 goals being scored but couldn't be sure as he threw his notes away after the game.

Responding to comments that Mr. Evra had at various times after the game claimed his team had scored 1, 2, 3, 4 and 7 goals, the panel found that Mr. Evra, not being a native speaker of English, had confused these numbers and thought they all meant 6.

LFC have been urged not to appeal by fair play campaigners saying that Man U won fair and square and the team should not condone cheating.

No. It's not true of course. I was just trying to show the absurdity of what happened to Luis. For those who haven't been through the report, this is pretty close to the FA's case on the multiple abuse allegation. I'm not kidding on that point - that is basically their argument.

Very very happy.

I find it incredible in this day and age that even with the technology we have, the FA can get away with things like this. Shambolic, but I suppose we'll try again next year. I can only assume Mr Evra had a solid case. I don't need ssn proof of what you say. Blasted FA is correct.

Yes. I know. I went back to add the of course bit but you were too quick for me - just in case anyone had had too many on a Saturday and didn't read the OP properly!

None of the cameras were pointing at the pitch, they were all trained on the stands looking for fans misbehaving as it makes a bigger news story than the match itself.

**jimmy-pace** · 28-1-12,23:15

theres nothing on the homepage about this...so mad!!!!

**Terrytibbs** · 28-1-12,23:23

If I could give some rep to the OP I would give as much as possible. What a brilliant post.

On the balance of probabilities, I'm inclined to believe the OP.

**Excl** · 28-1-12,23:33

My heart almost stopped mate.

**gfhgrhmrgdfgj** · 28-1-12,23:42

apparently they used the"not so flexible civil standard of the balance of pre-determined probability" so it must be true

**LLS** · 28-1-12,23:44

Haha well done!
