That fan who threw something at Ferdinand should be banned. And Ferdinand should get punished if that was the City fans he was goading.

Shit ending. Nasri has cost us there.

[Sam]

Ferdinand should be banned for being hit by an object? Great logic there.

[Cheeky Hughes]

? I'm at work and have to follow with commentary only ... what happened ?

Also ... Nasri, VP

Van Persie scored a free kick. Rio went a bit far with his celebrations, a fan threw something at him and busted him open.

In fairness, you didn't exactly deserve anything out of that anyway. It should of been 0-3 and pretty much game over at one stage if not for a poor call from the linesman that changed the entire game.

Deserved victory, probably our best performance this season I'd say.

No, I'm saying that if he was in front of the City fans, kissing the badge, then that's inciting the fans. Should be punishable.

And yeah, definitely didn't deserve a win. Maybe a draw with our second half performance, but ah well.

Right in his eye too.

What? Then ban all the fans who do the same to football players. It's just part of the game.

I agree, fans are so much worse than players sometimes.

[brenchill]

Oh, Nasri.

These replays are doing you no favours.

You're absolutely right. Celebrating a victory over your local rivals should be punishable by death.

And you didn't deserve anything

[Sam]

Kissing your badge shouldn't equate to getting a ban or getting something thrown at you. If you can't go to watch a match and stand the opposition scoring against you then you shouldn't be going to football matches.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Tevez get in a bit of trouble for his last minute lash out at Jones either. Delighted with the win, feel that had the linesman got it right we would have had a far more comfortable time of it though!

[The Future]

Great maturity from Phil Jones to not give a fuck after being kicked by Tevez, can that be punished retrospectively?

[brenchill]

No chance. Running up to your closest rivals fans and kissing the badge is a very silly thing to do, especially given the circumstances of a late, late winner. I'm not going to condone someone throwing a coin at him, but I'm not surprised by it.

[Colly]

This arguments weird, you can get a booking for inciting the crowd and rightly so.

Watched it in the pub and I though Rio had poked himself in the eye too...

[Jimmy]

Fans do a lot worse to players when they stand to take a corner, or something. I really don't have issue with it. You have to take what you give.

[MJB]

United have now won away at Stamford Bridge, Anfield and the Eithad this season. I doubt another team will do that for a while.

Nothing wrong with what Rio is doing there, nothing what so ever. Probably takes a tonne of stick throughout the game, so I don't really see any problem with him celebrating like he does there. There's no excuse for pathetic behavior like that from fans. The fans would celebrate and do all sorts if their team scored in the final minutes, you wouldn't see a player throwing shit at them for it though.

[Colly]

Jose and Nolan with a cheeky smile in the handshakes. Me with a frowny face they're not both at Newcastle.
