Mad stuff altogether
With Micah Richards missing his three kicks, Jamie Redknapp calmly slotted in his third to win the shoot-out 3-0, shushing the United fans that had heckled them both throughout.
Richards then took off his City jersey to reveal an under-top with the phrase 'Why Always Meeks?' upon it, a reference to Mario Balotelli's 'Why Always Me?' top displayed during a thumping league win over United. It is staggering, to fans of the older school persuasion, that a former Manchester City and Liverpool player could come out at Old Trafford, in their club kits, and whoop it up for a TV comedy show without there being a full-blown insurrection.Perhaps the tepid fare of a goalless first half, between United and Wolves, lulled fans into a sense of aggrieved acceptance.
Gone are the days of Will Mellor, Christopher Ecclestone, Mick Hucknall, Tom Brady or even Stormzy being brought on for a half-time natter or wave. You start to wonder why United would sign off on such a stunt, until you remember this is the team that recently travelled to Dublin with their second string on a cash grab. Sad to see, but that's the way football is going now.
