Hard luck lads. Good game but unlike the liverpool match i think we deserved it in the end.

Edit: Just heard it's the first time in premiership history that a team has come from behind to win four times in a row. Considering how alot of people were questioning arsenals Bottle, that's an impressive stat!

We don't look like a side who could recover a 3 point gap let alone a 13 point one & Arsenal look uncatchable at the minute.... Thursday night chan....

I'm not exactly looking forward to the derby, the clichés have already started. "These are games you always look forward to", "Form goes out the window", "These matches always have that exta bit of spice".
Just the old "How important is it to have the local lads in the side tonight" quip to pop up which will no doubt be heard in the pre match manager interviews.!!!

Your not looking forward to the derby... Disgrace that lad. Can't wait til kick off!

C'mon Redmen!

There was a rumour of that but our local bbc radio reported that he lost before the ipswich game on sat, hopefully this will also help Ipswich get rid of him aswell as he's also suspended from them aswell

Something happened on pre-season tour, loads of rumour but Nobody knows for sure.


IMO this is a good thing for football, it'll hopefully put the power back in the hands of the clubs rather than have the players taking the piss

I thought it was a misprint when I saw the derby down for a Tuesday night, normally the plod would put a stop to it, narks me off my they get a KO changed

As far as I know it was rescheduled because of the Carling Cup Final, dont think they could fit it in on a weekend and with both teams still in the FA Cup have already had to reschedule this weekends league fixtures and if either team progresses will have to do so again in the semis

Even stranger is the Manc derby having a Monday night kick off when a Sunday lunchtime is available (both teams could be playing in the Europa league semis the previous Thursday) this match could well decide the title can you imagine Rooney scoring the winner in the 96th minute in front of the city fans? or Tevez vice versa good look look with that one GM Police

Forgot about that, that's why we're playing Cardiff tonight. We've got nine games this month
