Head says we'll get spanked. Heart says we could scrape a draw.

A win would be fuckin fantastic at the theatre of shit.

We'll do what we usually do up there, only this time they badly need three points and a good performance, and nobody obliges a team in need like we do. I'd say the usual 3 or 4-0, but I have a feeling it could be much worse than that.

head says lose, heart says 9 nil win.

if the Villa score early enough then we stand a chance of something from the game.

2-2 for me, 1-0 up early on, they'll get on top and take the lead and we'll get a late equaliser.

Don't forget Man Utd have to play Bayern Munich in the Champions League on Tuesday 1st April - only 3 days later. They may well rest a few players as they have no chance of the League and are highly unlikely to make the top-four, so the Bayern game is of greater importance. Having said that, their 'second' string is still strong. I'll go for 1-1.

They're miles away from where they were.  Even so, they still have enough to beat us.

I can't see us getting anything there so I will say 2-0 United.

Has anyone been to the Imperial War Museum (North) at Salford Quays ?

I should have some time to kill on Saturday morning and was wondering if it was worth the visit.

I could never type anything other than a Villa win.  It would be a knife through my heart.  So 2-1 to us, similar game to the one at Anfield, except Youngs pnealty claim after falling over Guzan is waved away.

Please please please please please dont be Phil Dowd as ref

I've got a feeling we will win this.

1-2 the Villa.

To be honest he hasn't played well lately but his pace will be essential to any joy we might have, and over the years he's scored a fair few against Utd. He's one of the few players who doesn't always seem to get overawed by playing them.

I would personally drop Weimann for Albrighton.

3-1 to Them.

Mal Donaghey, John Siveback, Peter Davenport
Andy Blair for us

Grrr - I hate this fixture, not as much as the one at Villa Park though.
