Manchester City v Manchester United

just saw the stamp by ball, fecking disgracefull, he can expect a 3 game ban from the FA for violent conduct
 
pretty dull and slow for a derby so far tbh. We're not even out of second gear and yet we've hit the bar twice and are 1 - 0 up.

The biggest incident was that shocking stamp from Ball. The only explanation is that the ref might not have seen it. Cause otherwise thats the most baltant sending off.
 
very happy to have vidic and rio back. especialy as the ball will get ping in there from now on. probably from the halfway line.

I think if Barton and Richards had been playing it would have been more upbeat.
The lower pace the better really
 
tbh we started as we did our last 4-5 games - sloppy and slow. Good thing City are even worse.
 
I just made up this little poem in response to my City mates texts.

That dirty cnut Ball,
can't handle Ronaldo at all.
He tried to kick a lump out of his chest,
but gave him a penalty instead.
That dirty cnut Ball,
is such a fecking tool.
Joey said,
"I'll fecking have you, you dirty cnut Ball!".

the ref cant see evrything. even the assistants. if the ball had gone forward and the assistant wasnt watching for offside he would have been buggered. there has to be an element of trust that players have respect for other players and not be cowards by giving afters in the tackle. maybe a good argument for a fourth official. how can fergie see it on tv in the dugout yet we cant have a ref with a tv? we have not benefitted from it but there wil be 3 other teams that will.
 
2nd Half
Come on lads, don't get complacent
 
Ht-A disappointing performance so far even though we are 1-0 ahead.I expected much much better especially after such less running we had done in the Milan game.
Giggs and Rooney have been awful.Giggs is really showing signs about how old he is getting.Not his fault really tired after a long season.
Ronaldo has been good so far and his confidence has clearly grown after the goal.
Need to score 1-2 more in the second half and need to increase our tempo.

Are any teams walking over oppo (with a 5 man midfield set up to defend and counter) teams at this stage of the season? pretty much what I expected, we'll do enough to win... hopefully (touchwood)
 
Ronaldo didn't take a shot with the freekick! :D
Scholes straight at issakson
 
No card for Ireland, studs up and everything on Vidic
 
City are fecking thugs.

They deserve to be fecking slaughtered here
 
Shitty making dirty tackles all over the place. Styles being a blind twat
 
Small time cnuts, City, lucky they have Styles today
 
smudger needs to get in the game....or giggs scholes carrick ronnie and rooney, need to get smudger into the game
