Now there's an unusual fact

[Evenmydoghatesunited]

@OptaJoe: 4 - Manchester United are the fourth team to go through an entire Premier League season without conceding a penalty.

[BlueinBosnia]

How strange.

[Risby]

Sounds about right for them.

[Evenmydoghatesunited]

@OptaJoe: 3 - Three previous teams with no penalties conceded in a Premier League season - Newcastle 95-96, Bolton 97-98 and Arsenal 99-00. So, 13 years have gone by since it last happened. Strangely enough they weren't even vaguely close to being top of the fair play league so not committing fouls has nothing to do with it. I wonder what has? Write your answers on the back of a betting slip c/o Lord Taggart of Danepak, The Groucho Club, London W1

Well i never...

And poor Spurs didn't get one in their favour.

I wonder how many Rags players got sent off prior to them winning the league? They had plenty of chances but just couldn't manage it. And what about Johnny Evans right hook in Taggarts very last game?

And poor Spurs didn't get one in their favour.

They didnt get 1?

I thought Swansea was the only club to have that happen to them this season..

Nope, Spurs got zero, nada, nothing. They should've had a stonewall in the last game, instead the ref gave Bale a yellow.

And to think, Chelsea got 11 for and 1 against, I bet Spurs fans are fuming.

For me the only unusual thing about it is because they weren't the other 3 occasions

I was also assuming that would be the punch line
