Barclays Premier League
Venue: Britannia Stadium
Date: Saturday, 1 February
KO 3PM

can't see this being pretty. Mata will wonder what the £#%&! he's done at 9pm tonight.

0-2. We'll pass them to death for an hour, allowing them to score several tries while briefly threatening, then we'll go in for the kill and emerge comfortable winners.

What's the weather like?

0-3 YOONITED.

I think we'll have enough to nick it. Generally our away form (against the shit teams anyway) has been much better than what we've served up at Old Trafford.
0-2, 1-2 or something like that.

However, that doesn't excuse the fact we'll be going into yet another game without a £#%&!ing central midfield worthy of the name.
+ I'm concerned that now he's got Mata he doesn't quite know what to do with him.

Wonder if he'll play him

without opening another debate on the subject, imagine if RvP was replaced with Rooney there

0-4 Man Yoo. Hughes to be sacked by the morning never to be seen in the Premier League again

I think Stoke have taken four points off Chelsea and City at home, but they never seem to give us problems.

They're in horrific form, but I'm still nervous about this one. Any win would be a very decent result.

Imagine getting rid of pulis for a "change of direction" and then finding out the new man's Hughes

Lokkers enjoyed it though iirc

why is it in any way a big deal that the manager is listening to his player on whether he feels fit enough to play?

Because it's us, we're meant to be in turmoil and according to Twitter no one likes Moyes. We're always a big story

Did the Farce ever go away?

Tbf, we all sympathise with Robin because after 2/3 injury free seasons after learning how to cope with his body, Moyes has come in and £#%&!ed it/him big time, so it's understandable he's being cautious. Rooney however is an unprofessional money grabbing @#%&! hell bent on doing as he pleases, which has led to him being a @#%&! to the club, not looking after his body properly and being half the player he was at 21-24 years old in his supposed prime whilst extorting yet more money from the club. £#%&! him. Unless he starts scoring, then he's alright.

1-0 united.

mata to kung-£#%&!ick some stoke neanderthal, eliciting more comparisons with eric that are completely reasonable and in no way ridiculous.

Moyes is criticized for not listening to Rio and managing his need for rest. now he is criticized for listening to rvp.
