“Paul Ince and his big spending Reading team provide another stern test for United today as the reds domestic treble quest continues at an of course sold out OT”

Wouldnt surprise me...

Do you remember when we played them midweek at the Emirates after beating them at Wembley, I don't think there was 25,000 in the ground. I wonder if that caller bothered to turn up that night.

I think it might have had something to do with the snowfall which had covered most of the UK. I remember our turn out was pretty impressive considering the conditions.

Now you mention it, weren't they all pretending to be horrified that there might be some icy patches surrounding the ground and public transport might not be running? Any excuse to avoid watching their team get another battering.

Thousands of blues came from Manchester etc, many others from around the country & down south including my lad from Oxford and they couldn't be arsed jumping on a fucking tube.

Excepted and presenter went on saying

“ City have a hard core fan base of 30/35k like a lot clubs do but when winning you get the tourists and glory hunters”

Think we have a bit more than 30/35k hard core now! Plus 400m fans world wide last time I saw

We were getting 45000 under Pierce !

Does anyone actually think that?

There is absolutely no credible evidence to suggest that it's not the truth..

There is plenty of credible circumstantial evidence to suggest that may not be the truth.

So, what did I learn last night courtesy of ITV.

Commentator can't tell the difference between Laporte and Dias despite Dias not being on the pitch.

Dixon is an Arsenal loving cock end.

Arsenal made six changes. If anyone wasn't sure of that the commentary team kindly reminded us every 5 minutes. One mention of our injuries at about the 80 minute mark. The fact that Ederson, Walker, Dias, Laporte and Cancelo, feasibly our strongest defensive setup, did not start the game seemed to go unnoticed!
