Does the Old Trafford scoreboard have room for double figure scores ?

I had a look at our tickets earlier and i did'nt realise we are up in the gods of their North Stand. I've sat up there, it's a bloody long way back.

 ;D Well at least it won't be close up and personal.

I hate to say this, but the object here is not to get a hammering.

Six one to United. Wiemann for us after we've conceded two goals.

To paraphrase our manager, a 'rampant' United to teach us a lesson. 0-3.

3-0 to them.

They could probably score a whole hatful more but our 'football' seems to have a soporific effect on teams and they stop trying to score in about the 65th minute because they know there is no need.

Villa to win by the odd goal in five.  Weimann bags a brace and we score from a corner too (Collins).

When we do break that corner hoodoo, we should do it in style - ie score direct from the corner.

A straightforward 2-0 win for Man Ure

We'll be lucky to have a shot on target but to be fair we get beat at Old Trafford year in year out  so another defeat nothing to be ashamed of

The granny shagger and Ashley Young to score for them

Yes, 2-0 at half-time then they will take their foot off the gas and leave it at that, perhaps getting another towards the end of the game if they can be bothered. I think they can actually win the league this weekend against us though it takes a series of rather unlikely results, the least unlikely of which is them beating us as you can imagine
