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

[Bellamy's Caddy]

Play like we did v "European Royalty" and they ain't getting near us - hope we do a Watford to them and the press have no reason for anything but praise for our football.

If we win the narrative will be that our dominance is bad for English football and made it uncompetitive. If we lose, the narrative will be that the rags are back and could have a better season than us as they'll have won two trophies.

Ronay and co will copy and paste the same myths and lies they've been peddling for years. Their articles are largely already written, the scoreline just needs adding.

I hope City put in the kind of performance we all know we're capable of. It would be fantastic to win it in style and go in to the Champions League final full of confidence. Having said that, any sort of win will do!

Anyone know any decent places to watch in salou

I would imagine all the bars will have it on

There's the boys enroute to Wembley.

Well someone has to eat the Balti pies ;-)

No idea but he is revered in India so if he says we are his team we will gain millions of new fans

Does that mean the trams will be even more packed after every home game ?

Just on final approach into Luton.

I have to say I love and hate derbies. The exhilaration of victory or the despair of defeat. The fact that it’s a cup final just magnifies it.

Everything points to a win, our form since our last meeting, our performances in big matches since then and the fact we’re at full strength and they are missing a few.

Feels like a match we need to start well, set the tempo and keep them under constant pressure. We shouldn’t allow them ease their way into the game and build confidence.

We’re a better team than they are, just need to show it.

We are potentially on the verge of a very very special week for this club.

Under normal circumstances we will destroy these fxxxers, but they have been very jammy this season what with repeated home draws in the cup competitions and dodgy ref calls in their favour. That said, if there is no dodgy ref calls we will pulverise Tent Peg and his expensively assembled misfit of a team. Come on City.

Please score 10

That would fuck up our song ! 9 would be perfect
