..........when we find out if Vida will be suspended for the Champions League games. Hope not..let's all pray for Vida!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[martinutd]

I hope our 'Wall' doesn't get suspended for such a big match. But imo Johnny can step in and fill in Vida's place. I'd just love to see 'the special one' moaning if Vidic is playing against them

 

[RedForceRising]

I don't see how Vidic can get suspended when quite clearly AC Milan were allowed to field a player who was red-carded in the same event.

 

[peterswellman]

He'll be a huge loss. Fingers crossed. I would really love us to wipe that smug smirk off Mourinho's face.

 

[reddwarf]

The article I read said he will definitely be suspended for at least 1 game. It's just whether he'll be suspended for 1 or 3 since it was a straight red card.

But there's an exactly similar case with Kalaze and Milan from 2007 final. Kalaze was allowed to play the games vs Arsenal. I've posted a thread about this a few weeks ago.
So I hope United make everything they can so Vidic can play in both the games vs Inter.


Edit: Here is the thread

 

[babysenorita]

Im aware of the Kalaze incident as well but i will not be surprise if there is one rules for utd and the other for the rest. It happens lots of time before so finger crossed they close an eye for this one.

Still, with the backline we have and having rio back, im very sure we will be able to cope. Time to see Rio do some work with Evans at the back.

be interesting to see how fergies gameplan will change depending on the outcome of this. i think if he is available fergie will set out the same plan as he did at barca away last year. but if his out it could completly switch

But was the rule in place stating that red cards counted for UEFA competitions in place in 2007?

Remember when Scholes and Rooney were sent off in that friendly tournament in Holland and they both got suspensions? An English club (I think it was Liverpool) had a player sent off in that tournament in a previous year but did not get suspended in the Premier League because the rule was only introduced after that. Subsequently United refused to play in the Dutch tournament again.

Hopefully if he is suspended, Evans can pick up right where he left off.

 

[hdcantona]

I think it's ludicrous, they are 2 seperate competitions, completely unfair and that cup is at the end of last years champs league comp, well thats when we qualified for it, so it shouldnt effect this years champs league.

 

[the boss]

prepare to be stitched up again this time by foreign suites rather than the grandads of the fa.Im expecting 3 games just because its utd, if it were anyone one else it would have been forgot about

 

[Richie]

It would be outrageous to ban him for 3 games in a competition with so few games to play, especially considering it was a pretty minor incident too. But you never know what Platini's England-hating organisation will do.

Hope he's back for the 2nd leg I just applied for a ticket to it

 

[the boss]

if theres an injustice served and vidic is suspended im sure there will be a positive reaction from utd too put it right on the pitch and prove we dont need favors and not even platini and his cronies can stop the red machine rolling to rome

 

[Jay007]

It might also depend on how serious UEFA/FIFA see the incident.

 

[owenrooneyruud]

i didnt see anything wrong with veda card to begin with.. the man was behind him on the floor and veda jus brushed him off with his elbow to get him out of the way. he had no intent and nothing malicious about it.

Amsterdam Tournament Stevie G nothing ... Rooney and Scholes 3 game bans

 

[Rahul]

I'm certain he'll be getting atleast one game ban. It wouldn't surprise me if they increase it to two games. With Michel Platini as the head of Uefa I don't think any decisions against English teams should be of any surprise especially against United.

 

[Check the Milkman]

If he doesnt play we still have Evans who is more than capable of taming that overrated big game flop Ibra.

 

[MsUnited]

We will see, tho no suspensions should alarm us.
Remember guys, we have got what`s called depth in our squad
