However, no-body would have predicted that The Gunners would have taken the loss so badly, that they were reduced to throwing pee-soup and pizza at opposing and triumphant manager Sir Alex Ferguson.

Yes, admittedly, there were some very controversial decisions made by Yorkshireman (and referee) Mike Riley yesterday, but could grown men really have the audacity to throw food at their opponents?

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger could now face a ban from the FA following his comments regarding Riley. "Out of nowhere Riley has given the penalty like he can do at Old Trafford as we know"

The Frenchman has every right to be suspicious as Riley has given 8 penalties in as many games to the home team whilst at Old Trafford.

Riley gave a penalty that, in my opinion, was quite harsh on Sol Campbell. Video evidence shows Campbell made minimal contact with Wayne Rooney.

The resulting spot-kick was cleanly converted by Ruud van Nistelrooy, breaking the deadlock on the 73rd minute.

Referee Riley wasn't the only crown-pleasing Yorkshireman on the pitch. Alan Smith set up birthday boy Wayne Rooney, who delivered the final blow in Arsenal's coffin.

As a consolation to any Arsenal fans reading this, you still sit pretty and proud on the top of the table, but, The Red Devils along with the likes of Chelsea will make your season hell...
