Guest Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 If we play like we did last night against Hearts on Saturday we'll be well beaten.But if we play like we did against Kilmarnock we'll pump them. Optimism! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're only as good as your last game ;-)Hearts are really strong at the moment but it's far from impossible. This seems to be our best 11 available and on their day could beat anyone (except Celtic it seems)Langfield McNamee Diamond McArdle Smith Jack Milsom Hartley Aluko Maguire VernonEdit: Obviously big Josh will come on after 70 and Consy is available if any of the defence are underperforming.Edit: Blackman?

Captain America Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 The number of laser pens on Nani there as he was trying to take a corner there was a bit nuts. At least 5 or 6. Not very sporting from the fans. Pretty blah match so far, Heinze is a dick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 Excellent atmosphere though. Just shite game.Carrick is having a shocker. Really really bad. He's been guff ever since the final against Barca. I think he's still dizzy from Xaviesta running rings round him for an hour and a half. I think it killed him. If Fergie doesn't buy at least 2 highly competent central midfielders this summer, then I'll be quite surprised. With Carrick flailing, Gibson always and forever being shit and Paul Scholes being too old to play every week, he surely knows he needs someone.I like Heinze, purely for this: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soda Jerk Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 Bloody Hell, the commentary for the Marseille/Man U game is just fucking awful.It was atrocious. It was like they stereotypically hated the French. Everything United did was untouchable, and everything Marseille did was a dive, or "making a meal of it". Marseille ruled the second half completely, and all they had to say was "Marseille have had a little bit more momentum now than the first half". Second half was good, as far as watching Marseille was concerned. They were awesome, but really missed Gignac, and they didn't really have a prominent goalscorer out there.Smalling was a rock at the back. Remy was excellent at legging it forward and mazing through everyone. Good player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain America Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 The fuck is Marcel talking about. Marcel, chiles and Townsend. Pundit hell. (I actually like Marcel for comedy value, not the other two though.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paranoid Android Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 Man U are really going to miss Anderson now he's out for a couple of months. He's been very good this year whereas Carrick and Fletcher have been utter pants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 They reported this morning that Anderson's injury isn't as bad as first thought and he should be back at the beginning of March. Carrick has just been properly awful. They could do with Park back if anyone, or Valencia so they can actually play with two wingers. Carrick is a liability. So many awful awful passes tonight, and when he did complete a pass, it was backwards. He didn't turn out to be a English Xabi Alonso like Fergie first hoped. There's only Scholes who is capable of passing the ball forwards. Whenver United tried to play it forwards, it went out for a throw or was intercepted. Terrible stuff to watch. Marseille were great though. Should have won it. Smalling shut down everything though. He was superb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paranoid Android Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 Didn't know that about Anderson, could make a difference in the premiership. Can't see them winning the champions league then again everyone is beatable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pitch was shocking. Actually, most of the time Utd's games were postponed at Tannadice it wasn't because the pitch was unplayable (apart from the Hamilton game when it was a touch on the boggy side) it was because the area outside Tannadice was untraversable. There were also a few away games involved in that unsurprisingly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I mean is, are the club responsible for keeping the approaching streets clear or is this something which isn't covered by SPL law?If this has already been discussed, I apologise.

Adam Easy Wishes Posted February 24, 2011 Report Share Posted February 24, 2011 Local councils are responsible and police generally make the decision that the game should be called off if surrounding areas aren't safe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
