Match Day Thread ManUre vs Wor Lot

Fancy this to be a Toon massacre of Manure 0-1 Carrol to score just because he's got a Xmasy name

 

Migs in blankets will score a couple

 

Noelinton could be on the scoresheet as well.

Although on 2nd thoughts probably not.

 

That was your second thought??
Should have been your first and only thought

 

Haven't they only won 7% of games under ole when they don't get a penalty?

 

Kevin Friend as ref, Mike Dean on VAR, very likely they will get a pen

 

Heart 1.1..... head says 2.1..man u... Howay the lads..

 

They won't like playing against us. In theory it's a bit of a free hit. We are not expected to beat Man U away but if we get something out of the game it'll be a great result.

 

I spoke with Man U fan mate of mine tonight, he said he's not looking forward to the game at all.

I literally say "you play us lot next-", "Oh yeah... that's gonna be fun, then the fans are gonna be calling for Ole's head until we beat a big side."

So, safe to say, they recognise we aren't a very easy team to play against. We can only thank our lord and savior Sir Bruce of Northumberland for bringing greatness to our might club.

 

Both Lawro and the bitter guest predictor gone against us. A win is now virtually guaranteed.


Man Utd v Newcastle (17:30)
I cannot believe that, after Sunday's defeat by Watford, Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer came in said they had played like they were in a testimonial in the first half.

I really don't get that. Even if you thought it, you would not say it to the press because instantly you are going to be asked 'why you didn't motivate them better, and get them at it?'

It tells you a lot about the character - or perhaps the lack of it - in Solskjaer's squad that they go to Manchester City away and play extremely well, then two weeks later they are away at Watford and don't turn up.

Paul Pogba will probably start in this game after coming off the bench against Watford, but I don't see Anthony Martial is the answer down the middle.

One week he looks like a proper player, the next it feels like he has barely played the game. It is very strange.

Even so, they should still have too much for Newcastle, if they can get their tempo right.

Magpies boss Steve Bruce is doing a great job at and he will get a great reception from the fans at Old Trafford - but he will not be leaving with the points.

Lawro's prediction: 2-0

Richard's prediction: Because of Steve Bruce's absolutely shocking lack of loyalty to Sheffield Wednesday, I am going for Manchester United to win, 8-0.

=========================

Well that's the pep talk sorted

**** him, who the **** is he anyway

 

For the games on 26 and 27 December, he is up against singer-songwriter and Sheffield Wednesday fan Richard Hawley, whose latest album 'Further' is out now.

Wednesday finished in the top seven three times in the first five seasons of the Premier League between 1992 and 1997. "Those days with Chris Waddle and David Hirst in the team are like a distant memory," says Hawley. "But occasionally I have the great pleasure of going for a pint with David. He is somebody who is a pal, and a hero."

Hawley, a former guitarist in Pulp and Longpigs, hails from the Steel City and is enjoying seeing the Owls flying up the Championship as they look to return to the top flight for the first time since 2000.

 

So a no-one special then

 

**** any team located in Sheffield. This is the big Wednesday fan who said he wants to see Sheffield United do well.

Prawn sandwich eating toff who doesn't understand the game.

 

But it's the rainy season!

 

I reckon Schar, Fernandez & Lejeune can take care of anything rashford, martial and co have to offer. 1-2 to the toooooooooon and a first double over united since 1930-31.

 

its hilarious you all seem to think we can get something tomorrow !! we have been playing crap … ok we have picked up a few lucky win splaying badly, but no max, no Willems and dummets out …

man united may no be great , but bar the Watford performances they will destroy out side missing at least two of out best players

also they have been pretty good at home btw

as soon as you all start up like this I know for a fact its a 2-0 loss

 

you've been wrong more than anyone else on this board since the start of the season. You're what Mourinho would call a master of failure.

 

I don’t, we’re ****ed.

 

@Steve Bruce URGENT
I have just seen your post on the PL board regarding your trip to Manchester.

I HOPE YOU ARE NOT ANTICIPATING THAT MY TICKETS WILL BE WAITING FOR YOU AS YOU DIDN'T RESPOND TO MY PM's REGARDING A PICK UP TIME SO I WASN'T ABLE TO CONFIRM WHETHER NEIGHBOUR WOULD BE THERE. BEFORE MY WIFE LEFT LAST NIGHT SHE GAVE THEM TO SOMEONE ELSE.

Please acknowledge that you have seen this.

1. Dummett is probably the best Newcastle player of the last 50years.
2. Max is apparently not injured and just wanted Christmas off.
3. Willems is a plodder compared to Haidara.
4. Joelinton is the best centre forward to come out of Brazil since Pele









I don't actually think those things - its just I thought it may help to get a response from you!
