I hope Smalling plays in one of our next two league games. He deserves it to be honest. He should get more experience playing in the league. I think he could be useful in the ten days after Christmas because we have four games during that span.
We could drop points in both the upcoming games, especially as Chelsea's cowardice may have caused us to lose momentum
Phil Dowd announced as ref...
Dont mind him, anyone but that cnut Atkinson.
Oh and can the OP update the table please, City have played 18 games and now lost 4...

The Saha one in 07/08 wasn't long after HT I think. Certainly the last 2 have been heart attack inducing. Their defence has been really good this season too, hopefully an early goal can ease the tension as they'll fancy their chances if level at HT.
It was midway through the second half. A header iirc..
keano was their manager

Iirc they do follow this order in other leagues mate.
4-1 for us...Chica to score.
The game in 02/03 were one of the most exciting. We had everything against them, but two late goals saved us. We had something like 31-2 in chances, but Jurgen Macho had the game of his life.
Just heard M Owen is match fit and will be available for the sunderland game
Owen-Chica upfront

Why is this not on Sky?
Bullshit.
Bullshit.
Probably because we were meant to be on last week for Super Sunday. We're on Sky Tuesday 28th though for Birmingham away.
Eh the game is live on Sky..............but on Sky-Sports Germany.
And the other games at 3.00 pm in a conference switching.
Oh, that's great - I remember this being done in 2008 as well! People looked at me when I told them that I was going to watch football saying ''who bloody plays on Boxing Day?''Eh the game is live on Sky..............but on Sky-Sports Germany.
And the other games at 3.00 pm in a conference switching.
What's this then. Have I logged on to an NFL forum?
I don't know if you know about espnstar.com. It is based in Singapore I think with John Dykes, Mason, Sheeby Singh, Andrew Leci etc. as pundits. They call it Premiership Saturday and Super Sunday. I think they cover places all over Asia like India, Indonesia, China, Singapore etc.
So when do we hear team news on this one then? i dont see Sir alex doing a presser on xmas eve?
Sky having been calling it Super Sunday for years now.
I thought managers have press conferences no matter what day is it or am I wrong?

No you are actually very right. There is a thread on all the players who would have missed the Chelsea game if it wasn't postponed.
Wow actually on Canal + rather than on Canal + Sport, means I might be able to watch it indoors rather than having to go out...
