Real Madrid (H) Pre-Match Thread

[asahartford1]

As I explained, I read somewhere (or think I did, I am a bit fucking senile) that they were taking the away goals rule out, or at least considering it

Some truth in that post-)

Any news about potential friendly scheduled for this weekend? Also risky if it goes ahead, what if Sterling, KDB gets injured...

No more risky than training or not being match sharp for madrid

The players were in today at the training ground but still no idea about who they might be playing or when. It could be the new COVID restrictions imposed on Greater Manchester last night have scuppered our plans for a friendly

There is a live chat on youtube atm focussing on the upcoming match if you fancy it...

Should we get to the semi final, does anyone know what date and time it will be played?

that doesn’t help. Trying to. Arrange a babysitter (tempting fate).

After watching that cup final debacle in a perverse way I’m really looking forward to seeing how UEFA are going to do us over on Friday night. If ever the game as a global product needed a shot in the arm or more specifically “saving” then we have to win and overcome whatever obstacles we are going to face. To that end we can’t afford to miss the inevitable sitter we are sure to create in the first 5 mins

Need to make the ref/VAR redundant by taking our chances And minimising the defensive brain farts

If we get that far our QF will be on Saturday 15th, SF would be on Wednesday 19th.

Spot on we need to make var/ref redundant and lose their “bonus”

Any stories in the press yet about Real not being as good as they used to be just in case we beat them?

Standard procedure , every team we play are shite , the Dippers were still pissed , and the rest of the teams we have played recently had their flip flops on.

 

[xgorton]

Going to be very hot on Friday.

Going to be very hot on Friday.

Hopefully on the pitch from the boys in blue.

Did we play that friendly this weekend?

 

[domalino]

I just have a feeling we will batter them.
