Mr Shin has asked me to pick him up a half-and-half scarf to commemorate this momentous game

Can you get Magic Michael to sign it for me?

Sorry if it has been mentioned earlier in the thread,but has anyone else noticed that tomorrows referee Lee Mason comes from Bolton,Greater Manchester . Here's hoping he is a man city fan.

Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal has confirmed Marouane Fellaini is ill which means he could miss the game against Aston Villa tomorrow.

Oh goody. Another opportunity for ManU to pick up some more fans over here.

I suppose I might get some recognition for a week with the old "Oh yeah wasn't it your team that lost 5-0 to 'United' over the weekend?" followed by a pause realizing I might feel bad and then an attempt to make me feel better with some soccer insight such as "That De Maria sure is a good player eh?"

I imagine this feels like the night before the guillotine in 14th century france.

That's not really pedantry, that's just general 'not being thick'.

You better go out there tomorrow and look to get at them Lambert. I feel queasy having read the Essex Reds opinions on their forums. You should be going balls deep to win this and right some cosmic wrongs.

Guillotine = football match. That's not being melodramatic at all now is it?

[frankmosswasmyuncle]

Sort of dreading the smug expressions of the twats sat all around me when they get their inevitable win, but also looking forward to the celebrations of the regulars who "sit" next to me who I've come to love and know over the past few years as we show these fu**ers we're no pushover!

Is this reasonable behaviour for a 60 year old?

UTV!

 

[Toronto Villa]

Fuck this white flag waving. We're going to win tomorrow!

ps: I'm a Gemini. Apparently.
The other half thinks this explains everything.


I think it's bollocks.

Subtle difference?
