    The late late late winner from CR7 proves he is a RED! Good read in the Telegraph.

    I posted on the other thread a link to a really funny story from the game.
    City fanatic Liam Gallagher (a tad of a fanatic as bitters go) was kicked out of the Bernabeu for celebrating ‘over much’ on the bitters 1st goal.

    This wouldn’t be surpising to most reds, but we can all be gutted that he wasn’t around to see the Ronnies final goal.

    Regards Gala

    Reports that several of their support were arrested and deported for setting off flairs in at the airport on arrival for the game. Oi Me. That is support for ya.

    Taken from the Red Mancunian Fact file linked above:
    Turk Telecom Arena …. holds the Guinness World Record for ‘largest crowd roar at a sports stadium’ after it recorded an ear-splitting 131.76 decibels in March 2011!

    Strap on your boots tight lads, should be a game then!

    Feel Fergie has to play a strong side so that we don’t go to the Turkey under any pressure.

    What are your odds lads.

    What’s up with Ashley Young, not at practice, no word at the presser, very odd.

    lets do it right this season as we always do, prove to them haters last season was just a blip

  10. United Till I Die says:

    @Kanchelskis – easy mate.

    Im talking about Liverpool pal! I watched Madrid v CIty with a Scouse mate last night and after the match ITV advertised the game v Young Boys. My mate lost himself for a second and said he was looking forward to that game haha. I just laughed my fucking head off.

  11. kanchelskis says:

    @UTID

    Ah, OK gotcha.

    To be honest, I thought Liverpool had even missed out on Europa this season! Makes sense now.

    Means they’ll player closer to Sunday’s game which is good. Lack of depth up front probably means Suarez will put in a shift too. All good, all good.

    All clubs have vermin who follow their chosen club. I suppose as we have such a vast support, we attract more than most, such as ‘Parryheid’. I have just read what he said on the last post regarding ‘ never our fault. He STILL thinks Hillsborough was caused by LFC fans!!!! I am a Man Utd man through and through, still living 5 mins from the ground, who has missed a handful of games home and away, spanning 40 years. I despise ‘fans’ such as him. Wake up people, we need to rid the ground of sc*m who just love to hate. I love the rivalry with the scousers, yes it can be poisonous, but it doesn’t have to be. They have a rogue element, who doesn’t, but they need to be weeded out and trashed. Hostile atmospheres are fine, but not poisonous. i don’t care if the last line upsets the vermin who peddle their bile, but I am a socialist who stands up for the people, good for the famillies of the dead, god bless them YNWA.

    United till I die- that’s. Thursday night sorted. Should be another real v city :-)

  14. dannysoya LOVES USAIN BOLT says:

    All the best tonight boys. Time to make a statement. Let’s show Europe we mean business this year. Blistering start hopefully and total domination of the game from start to finish. COME ONNNNN UNITED!!!!! Van Persie will score because he’s on my fantasy team hehe.

  15. belfast red. says:

    Champion’s League Football!!!!

    I had almost grown spoiled over the last few years of penning in mid week games in February and March. Seems now it’s been forever since United played in Europe (was never really enamored with UEFA Cup footy….and apparently, neither were our lads!)

    Although I certainly do not consider it a top priority, it is a joy as a fan and a priveledge as a club to be representing our country in the competition. Do us all proud tonight boys, 3 points to the good and let’s get this year’s campaign rocking and rolling!!

    That boy Ronaldo made City look shite!
