    Why do United always play MNF matches at Old Trafford?

    Not always. There was that one time where they had the inconvenience of going down to the Etihad.

    It's deliberate manipulation of the fixtures to hand them an advantage. A Monday night at Old Trafford is different to a Sunday Afternoon. I'd bet you anything the resverse fixture is played on a Sunday Afternoon. Don't be surprised if you lot find yourselves down there on a Monday Night whilst the game at the Emirates is played on a subdued Saturday or Sunday Afternoon. Negates home advantage. Very rarely do teams lose at home midweek. Sky know the stats.

    Think you should take a look at the fixtures again DL lol. Look at Sundays, look at who you play at home against, then look at the few away games who your playing now is that deliberate manipulation????? Then do the same for United fixtures<doh>

    Could you explain this? How does the CL affect this and why only you and not the other 3 teams in it. Remarkable statement that I doubt you can back up.

    The draw looks reasonable to me, though Utd always, have always will be Skys darlings, so every little helps.

    He never said it didn`t affect the other three! he is quite right though, United (and the other three) tend to play more Monday nights early season before the CL starts because you can`t be expected to play in the premier on Monday then the CL on Tuesday/Wednesday.

    Show me the figures....no need, I've done some checking and you are talking absolute bs. All the 4 teams in the CL in the last 5 years have played exactly the same number pre/post the CL starting. And you know, it took seconds to check. You should have done the same before making yourself look a muppet yet AGAIN.
