SEE YOU IN COURT

Taken from Haaland's website on Monday 14th May 2001.

"I had the operation on my knee earlier in this week and it went well. In fact, I
wouldn't really call it an operation; it was more of a clean-up job on my knee.
And I just wanted to make it clear that it was not the knee that took a knock in
the Manchester derby, despite what some papers have reported."

It's my left knee that's been bothering me, and it was clearly shown on Sky
that it was my right knee that took the knock. Another example of the papers
not checking their sources!"

It's actually been bothering me for the last three months, but I've played
through it as we attempted to avoid relegation. Now that we're down, it
seemed like the most sensible thing to do it now, to get it out of the way so I'll
be ready in time for pre-season."

Played on through it eh! It looks like the legal action is against the wrong Manchester club.
