Match chat.

Second biggest derby of the weekend after Sheffield (two proper historical clubs). Did you know Sheffield Wednesday were originally called Sheffield Humpday? And Sheffield United were formed in 1889, the very same year that Jacob Ress-Mogg gets some of his more progressive opinions from.

I used to hate derby day, but there was always the chance that the underdogs could nick something as the form book was turned upside down.

Totally different now. Now I hate derby day, BECAUSE there is always the chance that the underdogs could nick something as the form book was turned upside down.

City should thrash us - their squad and their football pisses all over ours.

On the eve of the Manchester Derby, Amnesty International have come out as Rags: https://www.theguardian.com/law/201...-image?CMP=Share_AndroidApp_Copy_to_clipboard

I, for one, will be boycotting all human rights in the future.

Newcastle get hammered for setting up like Man Utd have today.

Is Aguero ill?

 

[Benji]

He's caught the fashionista bug.

 

[Benji]

This has become quite boring because Man Utd are offering little more than a line of defenders on the 18 yard line.

 

[silkyman]

Great result. Tried to make it difficult for themselves but all it took was a 44 passing move to get the third!

 

[mistermagic]

Turned it off at half-time. Mind-numbingly boring.

 

[silkyman]

Always a bit tedious when these mid table sides park the bus.

 

[Stevencc]

An unsurprising result given the gulf in quality between the two squads.


About to watch the 'highlights'.

City were 'for the most part' largely unimpressive and United were dire ,eleven players trying their level best to stifle yawning on camera and as for City they didnt help the united cause ,44 passes with 38 backwards and sideward's ,only passes for an induced slumber in my well versed book.

Yeah that 44 pass goal was pretty crap tbh. Any decent opposition would have cut it out way before the killing blow.

I would sooner listen to Guardiola's playlist than watch the build up to their third goal. Although both would seriously deplete my appetite for life ,maybe slow asphyxiation with a disability ring would require less endurance.
