Owen is bound to score.

So we'll need at least 2

Predicting a City win at the swamp is suicide. Suffice to say I thought we'd lose before the Munich game - and I was smoking a cigar the size of a baseball bat by fulltime.

Notoriously difficult to predict derbies. I don’t think those cnuts are out special though.

We need to give the Granny Shagger special treatment, make him lose his head, apparently he had a hissy fit when he was subbed tonight so he will still be feeling aggrieved. We need to get right in to him.

0-0............Given and our defence will keep the rags at bay as we will not have much in the way of a strike force available.

3-0 City, Shauny Ireland and Bellamy, Given to save an unjust penalty from Shrek. We'll show them and the FA that they can't bring us down with their ridicolous bans.

Rags 2 City 1 (Rooney, Berbatov, SWP)

Sorry I can't feel confident with so many players out

Think we'll lose 1-0. A really close, battling game with NdJ/Barry/Ireland vs Fletcher/Anderson/Carrick in midfield will take any flow away. The 45-yearold welshman to score from a deflected shot after 70-80 minutes, celebrate in front of the City fans and get knighted

Swamp Dwellers 2 - 3 City Adebayor, Robinho, Tevez........ erm, oh shit!!!!

I actually think we'll lose this one 2-0....... there are not many teams that go to old trafford and get a result and I think it will be the same for us come Sunday. I really hope I'm wrong and hope we can get a result, I'm just not very optimistic come Derby Day.

Does anyone else have the pre-derby nerves yet, because I know I do?

I never predict us to win at their place and I've only been proven wrong once. I'd so love to be wrong again but not for me. Another comfortable 2-0 to them with us having very little possession and even fewer shots on target.

Like so many others I would love to feel confident but I fear the worst with so much attacking talent missing.
Swamp Rats 2 v 0 City
One ridiculously offside and the other a pen that never was.

we dont tend to win at the swamp but this time I think we have a good enough defense to hold them to 1 goal
I also think we're good for one on the break (shit them at their own shit)
so 1-1 for me
Rooney, Bellamy. The day of the "thugs" )

I'll go for nil all or one all.

If we win, it'll be because someone like Ireland really steps it up because our attack is simialr to last year, whereas our defence is vastly improved.

If we had ade I honestly believe we could win this by some margin.

Saying that, IF Tevez somehow pulls through, even from the bench... remember, this match to him is very simialr to what the last game was to Ade...

I feel totally deflated with the players we have missing, therefore I'm not confident we can get anything out of this match.
I need a confidence boost from the club.
