    It's gona be a big day. Aside from everything else about today, it's absolutely essentially we get 3 points to put the pressure back on Arsenal.

    is it true to say, uniteds biggest game of the season so far? cant wait for this one....less than 2 hours and counting. this is what football is all about, days like this. and yes, the 3 points is essential.

    That minutes silence was cringeworthy.

    Think someone is trying to stir up trouble


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,103 ✭✭✭estebancambias


    No, the minutes silence is deserved out of respect, but fans trying to depict themselves as victims holding their little scrafs aloft is so predictable and clichéd.

    In all fairness it wasn't a minute of silence, some idiot and his drum ruined it.

    Wasn't it a gun salute.

    It was a gun salute, one shot for each United player that died.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,898 ✭✭✭Harpy


    it was fireworks from outside is what they said it was..but he said he thinks it was meant as a tribute rather than actually trying to disturb the silence.

    1-0 City. Not the greatest of defending

    Man Utd to change shirts at half time and then win


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,985 ✭✭✭✭zAbbo


    2-0, looks like the occasion has got to Utd so far.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,668 ✭✭✭String


    I think the pressure for united is too much. they were obviously expected to win


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,884 ✭✭✭bennyx_o


    2-0 City.. Not looking good


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,125 ✭✭✭Keith C


    Fair play to city, they're really taking the game to utd.

    Hairdryer will be out at half time!!

    the dissent Anderson gets away with is an absolute joke.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,681 ✭✭✭Chong


    This is bloody awful, I hate Nani he needs to be taken off this a complete disaster.

    I hope I am proved wrong but I really cannot see United scoring 3 against City in the 2nd half.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 41,149 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    Signed after midnight!he was signed after midnight!

    An embarrasment to the Busby Babes so far.

    Im really upset that the lads are completley bottling it. I expected more of them.

    Nani and Giggs are ****.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,644 ✭✭✭✭cson


    The United players bottle is rotten.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,828 ✭✭✭gosplan


    In retrospect the shirts seem like a really bad idea.

    I always expected city to score but I didn't think utd would be so toothless or freeze so badly.

    Still though, they are united. Not over yet.

    How is an embarrasment to them? Can you blame the players for playin differently when fans are treating this match as an historical event when at the end of the day its just a league match? Losing this match is hardly going to discrace the memory of the busby babes, it harms our chances in the league and thats all we can be angry about.
