It has all the "ingredience and spices" that the Premiership have come to be assiciated with in their "broath and traditional cook-pot". It had drama, browl, surprises, shocks, excitement, pain, confusion, matching order, brazen and volt-face official calls and decisions. Man U had a hard fought redemption  win against hard working League minnows Luton Town.

Years ago, anthropologist Margaret Mead was asked by a student what she considered to be the first sign of civilization in a culture. The student expected Mead to talk about fishhooks or clay pots or grinding stones. But no. Mead said that the first sign of civilization in an ancient culture was a femur (thighbone) that had been broken and then healed.

No animal survives a broken leg long enough for the bone to heal. A broken femur that has healed is evidence that someone has taken time to stay with the one who fell, has bound up the wound, has carried the person to safety and has tended the person through recovery. Helping someone else through difficulty is where civilization starts, Mead said. We are at our best when we serve others.” Credit: Ira Byock Source: Weird and Amazing Things
