    OK, so Man U need to beat Sunderland by a margin wider than Gervinho's forehead (stole that one) this weekend to have any title hopes at all.

    Yesterday they took their best run at Swansea, and for a moment I thought they would drop 5 or 6 on the Swans. But, the tank ran to empty and Swansea showed some admirable grit to hold off the charge.

    My question is will United have the same desperation to score early and often this weekend, or, do they know that realistically they can only raise the trophy on points, and not GD? Eight is just too many to make up, right?

    If they're up by 1 or 2 early in the second half, do they play to secure the 3 points, or do they push as hard as possible, opening themselves up to MoN's counter attacks?

    I think they're gonna try and score 10.

    Unless our players mental attitude changes Man U may get 10 goals.

    If we do play well and get a draw or remarkably win wtf has been going on since the QF game.

    Would be painful for their lot, that.

    My tactics for the Man U game, are as follows, Go to Bubbles in Ashington, read the newspapers, have several Fosters, Lassagne, Captain Morgans, wacth a couple of bands after the game. and if the game is a good game, a perfect day. if not wellll, still a prety perfect day. then roll on the pre seasons.

    I hope they do because I'd fancy us to score on the break if they did. This isnt the Man Utd of old and they are not as good imo. Yes they could well win the game on Sunday but score 10 at the SOL. Not a hope in hells chance.

    Hopefully due to the friendship between Sunderland and us ( we have often sold class players to you cheaply to help you out) we will get our pay back and a 9 or 10 goal victory. Sir Alex wont forget and will repay you with signings from us in the future. We have always been very close together as supporters and I know lots of Sunderland fans class us as their second favourite team. We wont be taking the mickey out of youse after the game as we are allies in bringing the title home and keeping it in the Uk and not overseas.

    Cest, never suggested they would score 10. It was about mentality. Said if they are up 1 or 2 at half, would they go for the GD. That's all. Poor choice of words on my part.
