You earn enough money to buy a factory that makes footballs but you'd rather be awarded the match ball for scoring a hat trick. It's a bit of a symbolic act as there are now many balls used in a match and players don't wear hats either. Glad I didn't listen to this one on the radio. Watching the highlights there were a lot of chances for Portsmouth in the first half - enough to make you nervous for a win.

Rooney 25 (penalty); Boateng (penalty for Portsmouth) 32, Rooney 48, Rooney 54 (another penalty), Giggs 87 (his 100th goal in the Premier League)
