Anyway, we’ll give you everything you need to get you through the match. There’ll be team news, updates provided by fellow bloggers, links to streams (hopefully) and, you never know, but perhaps a few goals to celebrate aswell as a decent result at the “Theatre of Dreams” or so it’s nicknamed.
The reality is that it’s going to be a tough ask to get anything out of the game. Manchester United have a habit of finding top form against us, especially at Old Trafford, but they also have a habit of playing below their best and still getting the results. This is something that they’ve done in the league ever since the 6-1 drubbing from Manchester City.
However I’m quietly confident that we’ll cause them problems, in much the same way that I’m confident that we can cause any team problems. The one thing we have to do is finish any chances that come our way and if we can do that then we can perhaps get something out of the game.
As you may be able to tell, I’m fairly pessimistic over our chances for the match. I generally count a trip to Old Trafford as a ‘nil pois’ on any prediction that I have and generally it’s been proved to be spot on over the years. In fact it’s been nearly 40 of them since our last victory at the home of Manchester United. Another decent performance will do for me although I wouldn’t turn down a point, or three!
I think that is just about enough rambling from me anyway. Fortunately Shamrock has penned one of his fantastic match preview articles which you can read here . Admittedly it was up a bit late but that was my fault for which I apologise!
Stream details will be found in the ‘comments’ section below and team news will be added at the bottom of this article as soon as it becomes available.

Big result. Can’t wait to here Fergie winging about the ref. Just seen the makem score, and the SMB holding a banner saying Bruce out. The weekend is getting better and better
steverd(Quote)
Only blotch was the idiotic sending off for Jonas. What was he thinking?!
Ah well, looks like Sameobi will start on the left next game.

man…we had the linesmen on our side today… 🙄 🙄
Brave decision by the linesman to disallow the 94th minute Man Utd goal for offside…
A “Trelford Mills” day for Man Utd at Old Trafford…doesn’t happen too often..
Munich Mag(Quote)
Chelsea been poor, a home win vs Wolves doesnt mean much….we can get something frm that too I think………………
Great point, lucky with the pen but not overall for me…
ToonTom(Quote)
Still 4th. A point ahead of Chelsea in 5th and 14 points ahead of the filth who languish in 15th 😆
toonsy(Quote)
And even if Liverpool and Arsenal win they’ll still be below us 🙂
toonsy(Quote)
Wow! Tense or what? Great draw. Great day. Well played the whole team, but Krul has to get the cigar.
Brisvegas(Quote)
I’ve no nails left but that’s a great point even if it was never a penalty (after all their goal was lucky with the deflection). The main thing is we were solid in the first half and more than matched them. It’s clear that we need Tiote back though as we seemed to lose the midfield the longer the game went on.
Taylor played a blinder but surely Tim was man of the match with a string of incredible saves.
