Obviously not. Dirty Rags ;-)


No mate, just wondered how they would play this scenario out. I hope its on a rotation basis where we get the choice next time

Derby on Sunday and Wigan in the League Cup on Tuesday? Good thing we have a deep squad. I expect almost 9-10 changes between the two matches, provided no one else gets injured

Was bound to happen given they play Liverpool so obviously a first choice for Sky as broadcaster so they'd have put that for Wed 7:45pm to make sure scum can play a decent team after resting an extra day and they can get maximum coverage out of it. Neither club frankly had any say, the broadcaster gets to pick first choice and second choice and of course Manc Police won't let both clubs play on same day so there ...

My question is which is the second game Sky has chosen for Tue 7:45pm? Are we on TV or is some other championship club v championship club the chosen tie? I can't figure out looking at the list of fixtures apart from Scum v Scouse being the only 'entertaining' fixture this draw sprout out!

I hope it is us on the box, will be in sunny Napa at the time and the league cup doesn't seem to get shown much unless its on TV here

So Sky has chosen Swindon Town v Chelsea as their second TV game on Tue and on Wed their first choice is Scum v Scouse ... we won't be on TV and probably too few rivers for this one as hardly anyone abroad shows League Cup third round ties ...

Does anyone know when tickets go on sale?
"If we fire our manager after just one bad season - We'll become Chelsea"
"If we think we can fix the problem by buying expensive players - We'll become City"
"If we remember the good times to entertain us during the bad times - We'll become Liverpool"

So, keep calm and do it the United way


"We invest in young players, That is what we are good at — we’re not like other clubs who can spend fortunes on proven goods. We know that Manchester City are going to pay stupid money, pay silly salaries and all that. We can’t do anything about it. We concentrate on what we can do to try to bring players in for the right reasons. We invest in those who will be with the club for a long time, who will create the character of the club, who will create excitement for our fans. We are very proud of that and we are going to continue that way" - Alex Ferguson 14th May 2012
