[Alan Harper's Tash]

They've got great chance with games we got left exhumation going to play part

The worst of that is over now and we don’t have CL games to tire us out.

I know the lads look a bit knackered but we're not at the digging up dead bodies stage yet.

 

[marco]

if they manage to beat Coventry cant wait for the end of season speach from ten bob to the brainwashed masses on how there going to turn us over

 

[Deepest Blue]

Our win tonight means they either get eliminated by a Championship team or humiliated by a team who they delude themselves they don't care about but really despise.

Very true.
They can lie to their fellow plastics pretending Liverpool are their real rivals, but they cannot lie to themselves.

Ggood luck Ellis.

"I grew up as a Man City fan and now I'm looking to end Man United's FA Cup dream"

A boyhood Manchester City fan will be looking to pile more misery on Erik ten Hag and Man Utd this weekend.

Bet the rags were crying into their Cantona pillows when Bernado scored!

Originally it was going to be a tribute to Tommy Doc called the Mary Brown Tunnel.

At least it's better than Mary's brown tunnel.

 

[Mad Eyed Screamer]

Come on Coventry!

On a side note, I haven’t yet seen @Mad Eyed Screamer refuting the suggestion that he will be supporting the rags tomorrow, rather than the other Sky Blues.

;-)

It's the day I want nuclear war to rain down on north west London.
I'm not cheering for a rags victory.
I'm cheering for a cov defeat

 

[COAT_OF_ARMS]

Having gone so long without a director of football, they're now overcompensating with about ten of em. Fletcher, Ashworth, Brailsford, Wilcox, Harrison, Hargreaves, O'Boyle, potentially got Dougie Freedman joining that list. Must all be tripping over each other, and laughing all the way to the bank.

 

[ChelBelle83]

You just know United fans were hoping for a final against Chelsea cos Chelsea never win finals

 

[blue b4 the moon]

Just had a look at the odds, even with the rags being mid table I was expecting a much better price maybe double the 4/1 on offer for Coventry to win in 90 mins.

Pub was full of then yesterday willing City to lose. Wasnt too happy when I was attempting to hug them all when Bernardo scored. We should have ran up a cricket score against United in last seasons final but their players were too scared to come and engage and play football. I hope our lads give them a Watford style hammering this time round.

Jason Wilcox: Manchester United pay 'acceptable' fee to recruit Southampton director of football

Southampton say they have "reluctantly agreed" to let director of football Jason Wilcox join Manchester United.

Another ****

Most of us always thought he was.

Ended up with a cheeky quid @25's for that City fan who is top Coventry scorer to net anytime & be booked.

Not even worth watching today's match, we all know exactly how it's going to play out... Coventry will look the better side, play the more attractive football and create and miss a number of great scoring opportunities before united get gifted a goal against the run of play via either a defensive clanger, a deflection or a dubious decision.

The only way they can score. But of course we'll be told ten bob is a footballing genius whose tactical knowledge is second to none. The tabloids will be preaching to the great unwashed about how Pep is terrified of having to play against a far superior manager in yet another FA cup final. And thousands of miles away, somewhere like Kowloon, the population will be cheering on their favourites, 'Manschnited,' and taking the piss out of the Manchester accent - neither seeing or understanding the irony.


Adendum.
I wanted to watch the London Marathon but I didn't realise they had changed its name to the Gabby Logan show.
