We have handed the points to ManU without a fight at least 3 times since we have been in the Prem Time for Mr Pulis to forget that he is a ManU fan and give it a real go - if we lose then so be it - but at least let us leave with a little self respect And this ManU team are not even good - they would enjoy a good beating  I will be there but more in hope than expectation |

the 1st game Boxing Day 08 we gave it a go (& deserved a point) & we sort of gave it a go last time out.
we'll probably get thumped whether we give it a go or not so we may as well NOT park the bus & try & score a goal or two.

We'll be there in hope as well Paul but the odd thing is I genuinely think we could snatch a point (I know it's a long shot.)
It will all depend on our mentality of course, if we go there with previous mind sets we may as well head for the exits at half-time.

Yep Jamo ManU on recent showings are not that good - if we really want a result then we have as good a chance now than in many a long time And after Pulis pulled his loanees out of Preston for Fergie - we owe him no more favours |

I don't mind losing to Manure (Well I always mind losing, but you know what I mean), I just don't like the nature in which we do it. Every time we have been to Old Tragic we look a beaten team before the kick off, the players just never look up for the game. I don't mind losing if each and every man give their all.

If we can have Carrick off them then I'd send out the reserves... ;D Failing that; lets have a good go! West Brom were close to an upset yesterday and ManU are looking a bit shakey at times...

Our style of play away from home plays directly into their hands.It is an easy three points for the shit Im afraid.But you never now dafter things have happened, I think.  I wud prefer us to go for it and get hammered rather than defend like demons and still get hammered. |

If Neville plays then you can bet Ethers will be up for it and a bit of retribution. We should just go there and give it a good go.

We might as well give it a real go, if we play our usual game we will just be referee'd out of it.

Go and give it a go and work your balls off. they are nowt special. Maybe not, but they are still undefeated! If we play our strongest team theres no reason why we cant get a point. Our fringe players should nail Cardiff, so no reason to mess around. Strongest team in the league, no excuses. |

I know it's Old Trafford and an unbeaten Man United BUT...
I watched them at West Brom yesterday and they were shocking. If we get at them from the off...get the ball to Ethers to run at that wanker, Gary Neville, we might just score a couple. Get an early goal and you never know. As some have suggested I'd rather us lose 6-2 than 4-0. We should at least try to score our first goal at Old Trafford in the Prem (?)!

Why can't we give it a real go for once?!? We have tried the opposite so many times and know the outcome! Let's be positive and try to attack and keep the ball when we can! ;D

not building my hopes up. Especially when he recalls loan players just because it affects his mate Ferguson.
If it was out of his loyalty/friendship for Ferguson, and not for footballing/Stoke reason, it was an utter c***s trick imho.
