United (h) - pre-match thread

[If I die in the Kippax St]

Why rest anybody as they all did fuck all against the bin dippers. Given the number of games left why does any player need a rest so strongest team and smash the manure bastards. Sorry rant over!

 

[cadds92]

maybe something to do with the fact that he was england captain?

"a red" - do me a favour - classless thing to say

Agree.

84 caps for England.

The right thing to do.

RIP Ray.

Isn't it a little early in the day to be drinking?

Never is!

Just think they'll try to go for it knowing we were rattled last night. Plus Pep will probably drop some players.

No problem, Jose will park the Bus, we will win this 2-0

 

[If I die in the Kippax St]

Once the crowd sees the teams walking on the pitch last night will be put to one side

Spot on!

I’d take a shock home defeat if it somehow managed to inspire the players to beat Liverpool on Tuesday leading to a place in the semi-finals.

United was the more important game to me last Sunday and it still is. We will never get the chance to rub their noses in it like this again. Champs League; we'll get a few chances over the next few years.

 

[Franknorgrovesnephew]

this is the most important game by far to be able to rub the gobby rags noses in it is a no brainer

Losing this and then going out on Tuesday would be a complete disaster and taint this remarkable season. Before last night I think the vast majority of us were willing to accept a weakened team and a possible defeat if it meant progressing to the semi finals but with that now looking very very unlikely although not impossible, we can't let this chance slip too. The Liverpool result, or more accurately the manner of the defeat has elevated the importance of this game significantly.

We as fans have a big few days ahead to play our part too. If we can't get an atmosphere going around the entire ground and not just a small pocket of noise for these two games then I'm not sure why people are bothering to attend. Let's get the place rocking from minute one on Saturday, win the league against United and ride that wave of momentum into Tuesday and show the scousers how league champions play.

And then we would have to win the next two , one of which is away to Spurs. No we must be at full strength and go for the win . If we don't get that a draw is the next best thing which means we would only need one more win to clinch title .
