Back United to pick up where they left off against City

Republik Of Mancunia 26 January @ 05:45 AM EDT

It's never a good game when United lose but, amid disappointment and controversy, punters' should remember that the first leg of this Carling Cup semi-final was a cracker. Manchester derbies are fast becoming the most hottest clashes in England and that can only be a good thing.

As for this Wednesday: it's only half-time, we're one down with 90 minutes to play in front of 75,000 screaming Reds and we're famous for being the comeback kings of European football.

Time To Stop The Music

Republik Of Mancunia 06 January @ 08:00 AM EDT

As the players walk out on to the pitch at Old Trafford, music is blasted out of the tannoy which is reminiscent of something out of Gladiator. You almost expect lions to come racing out of the tunnel after the players!

There have been mutters of complaint about this for sometime, as it prevents the chanting from starting, as any sound from the crowd is totally drowned out by the deafening music.

Giggs and Evra Doubtful For Wednesday

Man United Devils 19 October @ 06:08 AM EDT
So far this season, Ryan Giggs has been Man United's most impressive player so far. The bad news is that there is a good chance he will be missing for United's game against CSKA Moscow in the Champions League this Wednesday.
Giggs picked up a minor injury in United's 2-1 win over Bolton at the weekend. Click to continue reading...

SoccerLens 30 June @ 04:20 PM EDT

Well that was quite a month, wasn't it? We're already at the end of June, believe it or not, and it was quite the busy month in the transfers world.

Many pounds and euros have exchanged hands around Europe already, and it's no surprise that the month ends with a couple more new signings to add to our summer transfer lists.

The summer rebuild…A fans perspective..Defence.

Avenell Road 05 June @ 03:27 AM EDT

Now then boys and girls, today we get to put our Tony Adams thinking caps on!!

The Arsenal defence at the minute seems to be a bit of a weak spot in our team..and Sir Wenger Obe Cbe AFC would seem to agree...

The Arsenal defence conceeded 37 goals in 38 PL games....breaking that down further to 16 at home and 21 away.

Rumours of Tevez coming to Liverpool

My Anfield 24 April @ 09:53 AM EDT
Seems like quite a few newspapers are claiming that Tevez is likely a £22m transfer target for us this summer. Unlike the last time we tried to prise a player (Heinze) away from Old Traffford, this time there's nothing ManUtd can do about it, as he's only on loan with them.
Our preferred partnership of Torres & Gerrard, is something which I doubt most Liverpool fans would want to mess with, which would make Tevez an overpriced backup striker. Click to continue reading...

Wayne Rooney hates Liverpool. Oh wait, no he doesn’t

Off the Post 12 March @ 08:05 PM EDT
Manchester United scramble to get their propaganda in order Hate is a strong word. So strong in fact that if your star striker uses it in relation to your next opponents and main title rivals then you had better do some Stalin-esque revisionism pronto. Manchester United had to employ just such tactics after Wayne Rooney claimed [. Click to continue reading...

Off side la! 22 January @ 11:08 PM EDT
Yesterday i talked about a player, that quite frankly has been a dissapointment so far IMO, Robinho. You can check out yesterday's post to see my points on this. Today i'd like to pay tribute to someone who's the complete opposite ....Ryan Giggs
A quick check on Wikipedia reveals the following facts on Giggsy:
  • Ryan Joseph Giggs was born Ryan Joseph Wilson on 29 November 1973 in Canton, Cardiff, Wales, United Kingdom (Wilson was his Dad's surname.
