Bloody hell couldn't do anything about that.

Rubbish pitch against a physical side - it was never going to be easy.

I think Clive Tyldesley is in love with Neil Warnock.

Grrr Delph was onside.

Let's see if Carew will be interested today.

Carew on

Heskey's movement up front has been good, he's just lacking a goal right now. I'd give him 10 minutes then if nothing changes give the Fonz a chance.

Poor half but it's the FA Cup so Palace are going to be up for it, it wasn't a corner. We've been the better side, hopefully, the ref will give us some decisions in the second half.

The ref has been a homer in the first half.

This commentary is unbelievable.

Get in! Deserved.

Overhanging the line? It was a good inch past the d-line

Plenty of time to turn this around we've been the better side.

Was that ball even on the line for the corner?

I'm sure Fergie had a quiet word at half time, no way was the ref going to give another big decision (in regards to the penalty) against United.

Definite penalty for the foul on Carew.

Delph looked gutted to be going off, the kid has great desire and hunger which bodes well for the future, his passing was very good also.

Aston Villa manager Martin O'Neill: "I thought we could maybe take advantage but we were a bit tired in the second half and we didn't create enough to cause them undue worry. But they haven't been gallivanting around Europe winning Champions Leagues and titles without being a top side. But I thought it was a red card, when you go in two-footed nowadays there is a decent chance the referee will show a red card."

Milner needs a rest, give Delph a run in the midfield for a game or two.

United's finishing was very poor but they played excellent everywhere else, really tired our lads out. Shame Delph went off I was impressed, shame Nani decided to try and break Petrov's leg with that awful challenge as he wasn't the same afterward. I'm really pleased with taking 4 points from United, we had chances in the second half, it was always going to be difficult given the recent form of United and there scoring for fun. We contained there defense, it's just so infuriating they score with yet another own goal. I'm disappointed we couldn't take advantage tonight but other results went in our favour. The referee made some bad calls in the second half, the foul by Brown on Dunne, Rooney should of been booked at least going studs showing above Gabby's ankle, Carew fouled what looked like a clear penalty. The commentary was awful throughout a total United suck fest, and little credit to our lads who ran and worked their socks off. Cuellar was impressive took his goal well, Collins and Dunne were great at the back yet again.

Rooney goes in studs up and no card

I think it was Carew on the turn and was pulled down, looked like contact to me.

Poor refereeing this second half

Dirty Evra

Let's not forget who we are playing and the form they've been in, it was always going to be difficult to contain.
