Dreading this one. Not gonna lie.

Who is the ref?

Andre Marriner

Andre Marriner

Brilliant

I think official MU are dreading this game.
The proof is in the build up: OGS's 'mind games' , GN impersonating Mr. Motivator, Pogba wheeled out to apologise and talk about the 'shirt , etc...

That is not ideal preparation for a big match. It will put enormous pressure on their players.
I would not like to be in their position. Sit back, relax and let it all unfold.

[Mase]

I thought the boring twats weren't arsed and wanted us to win? Funny, they certainly seem to care a lot.

[Nigels Tackle]

Dreading this one. Not gonna lie.

dreading the 5am kick off or the match itself?

[Hazy2]

United have tickets on open sale. Nothing reported surprisingly.

Wouldn't be surprised to see Kompany start

Wouldn't be surprised to see Kompany start

Wouldn't be surprised to see him score the winner.

At Stockton Heath works team building shite event, 5 rag supporters and 4 dippers out ffs.
Come on City

[Kippax Sean]

Heart rate is sky high, this is a f#cking huge game. We play at 75% or higher we win. Derby or not, they are nowhere near our level. They are going to be at their horrible cuntish cheating best, trying to influence the ref. Come on City!

[Blue Philistine]

Hope this fucking horrible weather passes, slippy pitch and playing in moments will suit the red giants, however shit their form might be..

I'm tied in knots right now, maybe the beer before the game will help

[walshawblue]

If we play as we can ans scum play 100% better then they have been doing we win beat them .
Lets get them beat and then its in our hands

[Beefymcfc]

Andre Marriner

This is my only worry for tonight. He'll see things that aren't there and give them the benefit of the doubt. He won't see things that are there and rule out anything that should go for us.

I am very confident team for team and it will be a similar score to our home game. However, that can easily change with a few blows of the whistle.

PS. I'll be watching this on catch-up as I have a long standing commitment this evening, hopefully none of them start looking at their phones and start gobbing off! Unless, that is, I see them with their heads in their hands, then I will be

[City64]

Thunder and lighting and monsoon right now in Manchester ...............

AND
One of the linesman has just been "outed" on social media by Richard Keys as a Liverpool fan ????? Yes Scott Ledger is a fucking LIVERPOOL FAN !!!! Keys demamanding to know how this could happen on such an important game !

[carl_feedthegoat]

Ive sent out about 12 texts to staunch Liverpool and Scum supporting mates of mine.

I expect to NOT turn my phone off after the match.

[dick dastardley]

If our players turn up we win, rag fans will soon get pissed off with us having 80% possession. Ole better get the tissues out and ratboy gonna be suicidal by the end of the game

[hayling22]

Feeling a little more confident now as the Manchester couple just beat the Scouse couple on Pointless, but it was a close thing.
2-1
