[Really_here]

It is? I'm pleasantly surprised.

good isn't it? Even the tout sites only have a very few overpriced tickets left

 

[mac]

I wonder if they'll mention 'Cr@ss of 92' when mentioning their ownership???

Only about 20 times

 

[Jonas.shaffer]

I'm shocked they've decided to put this match on the BBC.

I'm not even going to attempt to guess the XI.

Yes.

Well it needs to be as strong as possible given we aren’t winning anything else!

Why? There is a huge back story to it. Its made for TV.

Regardless of anything, its quite a big deal for a Mancunian and Salfordian team to be playing each other in a competitive match.

That is all true, and looking at the other games today, there are hardly any mouth-watering matchups.

I take it you're not local?

First meeting of the two clubs with the 'minnows' having obligatory links to the rags crass of 92 giving the BBC justification to promote them in the coverage too. If Dion hadn't have fucked up the balls they would have got rags V mini rags and the media coverage would be even more sickening.

 

[Family Man Ashton]

Pls score 10 tonight.

I like the sound of 9-2 to City and they scored their two first.

 

[IcriedwhenTueartleft]

Scholes, Butty, Giggsy will all be there in the fancy seats...wonder if "Becks" will also be there...how exciting to have such legends at our little old ground

Big Erl to get 7 to go level with Raz on goals at home would be nice

its peactically a derby, plenty of rags fans will be in the salford end

As a cradle City fan would think Butt would be cheering us, imagine he's ashamed he sold his arse to the rags.
At his first Maine Rd derby he said to Giggs it's awful out there they're spitting at me and calling me a M****h bastard. Don't worry said Giggs they do it to all of us, yes said Butt but you are a M****h bastard.

 

[Inter Me Nan]

Right blues, let's give these rag bastards a shoeing.

 

[Family Man Ashton]

Phil Neville and his brother,They like to sh*g their mother,They all sh*g each other,The Neville Family!

 

[Jonas.shaffer]

I'm not sure why it slipped my mind that Salford was Neville and co/Peter Lim-backed team.

 

[Gone for a Burton]

Neville is Lims bitch !!

 

[BamberBridgeBlue]

Need a nice early goal and kick on. If it’s goalless approaching half time the BBC will cream themselves. God preserve us if they go in front.

Think it's well known that Giggs's dad Danny Wilson played rugby league for Swinton (brilliant stand-off half who could send five of the opposition the wrong way with his swerve) so his family loyalties should be with the team in blue.

On the other hand, Ryan Giggs and family loyalty? perhaps not.
