Greenlizard0 Weekend Football Thread ** spoilers ** [28th April - 2nd May 2012]

[Robbo]

Altogether now...

John Terry woooaaah
John Terry woooaaah
He knees you in the back
He hates you if you're black

 

[Robbo]

Stunning free kick. Wow.

 

[Robbo]

Why does the commentator keep saying it's a "strangely lifeless performance", aren't most Blackburn performances like this?

 

[Robbo]

No

I thought you might pop up with that, obviously you don't know what most means.

 

[Robbo]

I think the point is that you were in control because Blackburn were beyond terrible!

 

[Robbo]

Is this the negative before tomorrow nights game.

City not lost a game at home all season, you knows its going to happen tomorrow

Fingers crossed.

 

[Robbo]

I just think that our players will be too scared of Sir Alex to lose tomorrow night, we'll either win or draw.

It's going to be a nervy affair though, that's for sure.

 

[Robbo]

I wish people wouldn't make predictions like this

Just hope Shami dont watch the game

Have some faith you miserable so and so.

 

[Robbo]

Hey I'm just thinking of you, I dont want them to rename it a Robbo

Oh boy.

 

[Robbo]

Ugly scenes outside the Etihad Stadium.






Lescott and Tevez have just arrived.

 

[Robbo]

Berbatov on the bench. Step forward squire.

 

[Robbo]

Teams:

Manchester City

Hart, Zabaleta, Clichy, Kompany, Lescott, Barry, Yaya, Silva, Nasri, Tevez, Aguero

Manchester United

De Gea, Jones, Smalling, Ferdinand, Evra, Carrick, Scholes, Nani, Giggs, Park, Rooney

 

[Robbo]

This really isn't the team I would have picked, but I'm not the manager, so...

 

[Robbo]

Either way you're still looking at a beating.

We'll see.

It's quite clear that Sir Alex wants a draw here. I'd take a draw but keeping that front four out isn't going to be easy.

 

[Robbo]

Sky Go dead?

Think so.

 

[Robbo]

Niall Quinn seems a bit biased. It's like listening to a Man City fan commentate.

 

[Robbo]

Was it you the other week who said about all the other jobs and ventures he's had? I just don't understand why he's doing this, surely he has something else he could occupy himself with, instead of annoying millions of people.

I don't think so. I said I didn't mind him in the studio!

He only wants to talk about Man City at the moment and quite clearly wants them to win.

 

[Robbo]

So what's Rooney's job today? Annoy Kompany and get him sent off?

 

[Robbo]

Bah, sloppy goal to concede!

 

[Robbo]

Well Plan A failed Fergie, what's plan B?

Attacking might be an idea. Just throwing that out there.
