Can't help being a bit bitter (as it were) about the first goal coming from that corner when I think City got a bit disorganised as Barry ended up taking it, concentration didn't look like it was there anyway.


And much as I'd love to ban the lot of 'em that'd be a bit much. Track record though isn't there? Not least from last time we were there and in the opposite corner as Tevez left pitch (with Garrido iirc). Fancy us for the FA Cup now though!

I agree with you Sandperson- the majority are there for the football not the violence. Last night there were 100+ MC fans and about 10 MU in the pub (Only 1 MU was a Manc compared to ALL MC having Manc parentage/birth but I digress) There were only 2 idiots there last night, unfortunately Blues and they were asked to leave very quickly. Shame it was ANOTHER 91st min goal ;-P

Come on Dunne, avenge your old club !

It was a good game and as I was reading somewhere today, it's a compliment to City how seriously this tie was taken by United. I was disgusted with the coin and bottle throwing. Suprisingly there was one idiot in the pub I was in and he was United so it shows it takes all sorts. At least that winner was a bit closer to full time than the league game!
Sorry SP but Fergie said 2 days before Leeds he would take the FA Cup serious but fieled kids against us as it was a second rate trophy- he has lost so much face with his huge turnaround as he knows it's the only chance of silverware- not bitter as such, but some ref desicions were poor to say the least. Anyway, we have the FA Cup to go concentrate on now, you can have your second rate tin cup !

I'm not moaning about that though (him lining up a full team), take it as compliment to us. He even sacrificed Rio (who could/should have got a card for the arm on Tevez but that's another story.)

I'm quite sanguine about this. We've waited a long, long time. I'm enjoying the journey.


Tick tock..

Monkeyheid is mad to get rid of MacDonald. He is your best striker and I for one, will be glad to see him gone. The amount of chances your front two of Samaras and Costa-Fortune have missed in your last couple of games has been comical. MacDonald would have scored many of them.

Can only assume that Tony and him have had a falling out.

Him leaving will only assist us in our quest for title number 53.

BR, I'm not so sure it's our only chance of silverware but I do think as a manager you would have done the same. The result against Leeds meant that priorities changed, I would have thought being flexible and being willing to change your initial plans were good traits in a mamnger in business or sport.
Fergie would have always put a strong team out regardless of FA Cup results. Fergie is not Wenger; local rivalries rankle - remember how Fergie ranted last season over some trivial hand gesture by Benitez. This was also the reason he played a strong team (Rooney, Berbatov, Giggs, Valencia et al) against Leeds when in previous years against similar FA Cup opponents it has almost been a youth team.
Very true Matt. Although the FA cup team is usually stronger than the League Cup team. We got a scare last season from Liverpool and we've had a couple of big rivalry matches this year with Leeds and City (now that City are upping their game) and it's highlighted how important these types of matches can be.
Jah you are right about Gudjohnsson to Spurs. I always rated him at Chelsea. Not sure how he's done since then. He was a Barcelona and then onto Monaco. He did have a serious gambling problem. Not sure what it will mean for Keane as he seems a similar player?

With former Chelsea and Barcelona forward Eidur Gudjohnsen arriving on loan from Monaco on Thursday, the Ireland captain?s club future is increasingly uncertain and the Daily Mail reports today that he has been offered to both Spurs? London rivals West Ham United and Old Firm giants Celtic.


Both West Ham and Celtic are in the market for another striker before Monday?s transfer deadline but Keane?s salary at White Hart Lane is expected to be a major obstacle to any proposed move.


It is increasingly likely, then, that Keane may be allowed to leave on loan, with Spurs compelled to pay a large part of his wages for the duration of any deal.

    • Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....  
    • Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded 
    • What outcome would you like? Disciplinary action? Not to have the driver back? Retraining? I know there is alot of pressure on drivers to deliver within a set day. if he slams the gate, is it evidence he is causing damage, or is the noise a irritant to yourself? You could put a sign up or buy a signing asking to close the gate gentle???? can you hear the door bell from the door? he might be ringing, not hearing and therefore knocking. In trhe notes section of the be livery page, there is a note section, although there is not 100 per cent these notes would be read as these drivers are constantly rushing.  I did a google search for you, i found this and you can try the envri website Contact Us | Evri   To complain to Evri, you can follow these steps: Contact Customer Service: Call Evri's customer service at 0330 808 5456 for assistance with your complaint.    1 Write a Letter: Address your complaint to Capitol House, 1 Capitol Close, Morley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS27 0WH.    1 Use the Official Website: Visit the Evri complaints page on their official website for detailed instructions on how to submit a complaint.    2 Email or Call for Specific Issues: For issues like missing or damaged parcels, you can email or call 0800 988 8888, which is free to call.    1 These methods will help you effectively communicate your concerns to Evri.   My driver is called anthony, he is brilliant to be honest. I cant fault him.
    • When I have more time and energy, I will look up the actual number of votes cast for each party in that election, rather than the number of seats won. I'm interested to see that you apparently  think that  Boris Johnson did a good job of "leading the country through Covid." Is your memory really that short? I won't stoop to calling Johnson and his cronies names in the way that you seem to think is appropriate for left wing politicians. At least the left wing politicians have some semblance of morals and a concern for people who aren't in some over privileged inner circle and/or raking in money for themselves on the back of an epidemic. I'm not going to open a can of worms on here  by commenting on the disgraceful so called "purge".
