. Tom (@Tom_McGhee): . Literally typing this on a phone, as I drive a 7.5 tonne lorry. It’s not ideal. If only I’d had a few spare days to prepare something better… Prediction: Going to go with 3-1 United if for no other reason that I’m trying to be more optimistic for the new year […]

It’s nice that when I have nothing to say, I happen to follow people on twitter who say it best. Daniel Harris: Adnan Januzaj plays football like a man made of velvet. Paul off of the Rantcast: WE’RE GONNA WIN THE LEAGUE (cup) WE’RE GONNA WIN THE LEAGUE (cup) AND NOW YOU’RE GONNA BELIEVE US AND […]

Still have nothing to say. That doesn’t count. Prediction: 2 – 2 (aet, 7-5 win on penalties). Danny with his customary two.

Well that result wouldn’t have been out of place in an episode of Tales of the Unexpected. Not that I didn’t expect a win, but I certainly didn’t expect a big win. Nor did I expect Kagawa (or Swagawa) to get a hat-trick. Thinking about it, I probably never expected him to get a hat-trick […]

We’re inviting our Twitter friends, and now resident thought sharer Iwan Lehnert, to share some of their ‘Pre and Post Match’ thoughts with us from now on. If you want to share, get in touch! You can still enjoy my nonsensical, confusing, punctuation buffets below their proper good ones… Iwan (@IwanLehnert): I don’t think any […]

There’s a script somewhere that has Sparky beating us and therefore saving his job – the only problem is the plot is riddled with character flaws. I’m willing to go as far as to say that if we lose this game, I will stop writing these things for good. Oi! Who said they’d “be supporting […]

I was spending the evening after this game, with a couple of friends – one a united fan, and the other very much not. The second friend didn’t support United, because Rooney looks like a pig. In a strange way that put the game into perspective. Sometimes you win when you haven’t played well. Sometimes […]

Seems a lot of people are referring to this game in terms of what happened last time round – remembering Giggsy’s goal and the result, and perhaps forgetting how poor we were for the other ninety-something minutes, only saved by some amazing goalkeeping from De Gea. All Giggsy sentiment aside (he was pretty poor that […]

It was never going to be easy. We’ve hit a little trough, hampered by a few injuries and lost a bit of momentum. Anderson after promising much in some earlier games appears to be getting stuck in the same old habits of trying to do too much early and then tiring dramatically in the second […]
