FA Cup Final | United (N) - Sat 3rd June 15:00 | Pre-Match Thread

[Newman Noggs]

I remember it as the Rags were trying to pressure the FA into giving them a bye, they thought by threatening to pull out they’d roll over but they called their bluff.

Entitled cunts.

I've mentioned before on here that I wrote to David Davies, united-fan and executive director of the FA at the time saying I was writing an article for a football magazine, which I was, and asking specifically who had approached who first.

His first response was that it was "mutially agreed" that if they won the CL they would be going into the World Club cup. As this didn't answer my question, I wrote to him again and asked him to answer the question. His second reply was equally evasive so I wrote back to him saying that his refusal to answer the question told me that it wasn't the FA's decision. I got no answer to that letter.

We need a good work out in the sun I would expect it to be fairly hot in Turkey next week.

Not by 10pm it will be mild

That's rich coming from the weirdo joining Rag Cafe with over 500 posts.

Hope you're reading this too you dickhead.

That childish guy is a lot of things, but sure as hell not a City fan. I can edit my profile and say I support Man Utd and start saying I am a man united fan, and we all have small cocks.

For me the only way we lose this is if it goes to penalties. Our record in shoot outs is good but from individuals it's been very hit and miss, pardon the pun. That said if this does happen Ortega will be better than Ederson who is hopeless at saving them.
It's a worry if it goes to a shootout.

We've actually won all our penalty shoot outs at Wembley as far as I'm aware haven't we ?2 lge cups, a Charity shield and a play off final!
However,like most blues I'd be jittery as fuck if it went to a penalty shoot out. For such a talented, gifted bunch of players our success rate from the spot isn't great is it! and we lost the last shoot out we were in didn't we (West Ham last season).
Even watching the shootout in the play final between Stockport and Carlisle (a game I really wasn't fussed about ) I felt oddly nervous!
So, just win the bloody thing in the 90 minutes City (please!!)

This weather is a bonus for city. United will be fucked chasing the ball

Winning the CL is the priority.

That team suggested is good enough to beat the scum. If not.

Winning the CL is the priority.

Theres no priority. Its one game a week now. No need to rest anyone or prioritise a game over the other. Strongest 11 in both games no dicking about

 

[jimharri]

Can anyone tell me what connection either of those have with us? Is it something to do with Puma?

 

[super_city_si]

Please dont have one eye on next week pep , we just have to beat the rags , never thought he has taken the derby as seriously as us lot

The first team need to play to get back up to speed, many of them have had two weeks off , two more games to greatness so no fucking about

I dont think he'll fuck about. They've had 2 weeks, I cant see him going 3 weeks and throwing them cold straight in to the CL final. He will want to win tomorrow and make sure we're sharp for Inter.

 

[super_city_si]

I think certain are

Ortega
Walker
Stones
Dias
Rodri
Gundogan
De Bruyne
Grealish
Haaland

Then perm Ake/Akanji and Foden/Mahrez/Bernardo

 

[super_city_si]

The team they can put out and the team we can I'd be disappointed if we even conceded one goal

a Rashford goal is a cert. We'll just score 4 though

 

[Champions Again Ole Ole]

This time tomorrow we'll all be celebrating having just lifted the fa cup. Either that or I'll be getting slated for the treble thread

I don't know who either of them are

We own a team in India. Other than Sachin Tendulkar and ashwarya Rai, he's probably the biggest name in India. Maybe to get more interest over there?

How do you know!?

 

[Betterdeedthan red]

I don't know who either of them are

Not a clue

 

[chris85mcfc]

Ortega
Walker
Stones
Dias
Rodri
Gundogan
De Bruyne
Grealish
Haaland

Then perm Ake/Akanji and Foden/Mahrez/Bernardo

As long as that's the 9, I'm not too fussed about who makes up the other 2 places.

For me, I'd go with Ake as he's quicker getting the ball out to Grealish.

Would go for Foden on the other side as well as can't see Shaw going forward so no real need for Bernardo out there.

I mean there's no denying this place has some pretty terrible popular views at times but it's nothing compared to rival fans forums. You also have to have a screw loose to be a known city fan posting over 500 times on a board where the most plastic of rags gather to collectively talk shit. I just don't get why anybody would bother, what are they getting out of that?

 

[prestonibbo_mcfc]

But that's what's supposed to happen when we invite the press. They come in too close and we quickly play it round them. It looked a bit ropey at Brighton because we didn't have our first choice players receiving the pass out and playing it off quickly

Exactly !!

So, is this the equivalent of us inviting Phil and Holly?

Just nearly had my first kick off of the weekend. Came out do the gym three Salford scallys said to one of the other “he is going to get pumped to smash some City heads in tomorrow”.

Gave it them back / lovely warm up.
