With over 20 minutes to play and United playing City off the park at Wastelands, we were looking for our second goal to kill the bluenoses off. Robinho was in 18-year-old Rafael Da Silva’s pocket throughout the match, whilst Steven Ireland and Dietmar YSB Hamann no contest for the impressive Michael Carrick and Darren Fletcher.
So [...]
Wayne Rooney nonchalantly delivered a dig in City’s direction this week, claiming that despite the money they had, he would start worrying about them when they stopped lingering around the middle of the table. Well it’s happened, City certainly aren’t a mid-table team any more. They are 14th, above 15th placed West Ham on goal [...]
Rooney’s goal
Ronaldo’s sending off
Rooney’s late chance
More possession, more shots on target and most importantly, more goals… all with ten men for 20 minutes away from home.
Have it, you bitter bluenoses!

Anderson will face three international team mates if he plays against Manchester City tomorrow, in Robinho, Jo and Elano, but is certainly up for the fight.
He claims that whilst they are great people and players, he wants to be on the winning side on Sunday, and will dish them out a rough few days if [...]

A few years back, the only tickets I could get for derby day away were with the home fans. A couple of blues I knew gave us their season-ticket seats, whilst they got their hands on seats with a better view elsewhere. We were under strict instructions not to give away our identity, as they [...]
The Republik of Mancunia Manchester United forum is looking for more reds to come and join us. What better time to get involved in football chat than just before the derby.
Leave your prediction for derby day here, then on Sunday, check out the chat room to talk about the game with other reds.
Can you imagine any United player claiming that it is an ‘honour’ to beat City? No, me neither. Micah Richards has spoken out about City’s chances ahead of the derby, reflecting on their results last season. ‘Unbelievable’, ‘fantastic’ and ‘great honour’ is how he described it.
Honestly, City are a MASSIVE club!
Reports earlier this week suggested that the supposed transfers for Zoran Tosic and Adem Ljajic were a load of rubbish.
It seems as though Partizan Belgrade were double bluffing though, as now it appears as if a work permit application has been approved, with the left-winger set to join United in January.
Ahead of derby day on Sunday, City star Robinho has confessed he used to watch Manchester United play when he was a kid and that Ruud van Nistelrooy was his hero. Probably not what the bluenoses wanted to hear.
