Or when one of the players with a late chance to win it is Martin Skrtel 

He makes us all laugh. That's why I won't ban him yet 👅

Unquestionably, your team is the better all round team. Will you finish higher than us? I'd wager my trousers on it. I was just commenting on the match I saw. If you want to dispute my quick appraisal, go for it. But I think it's quite accurate. As well as impartial.

You laugh with me, yeah?

Giggs looked like he was trying to protect his prized assets by letting the Gerrard free kick through. Nothing must get in the way of satisfying the wife and mistresses

 

---

Even if it's not the biggest it's got to be in the top few. what other games would you put before this fixture? 

Barcelona v Real Madrid and AC V Inter Milan to name a couple.

---

Barcalona v Real Madrid

Milan v Milan

Rangers v Celtic

Liverpool v Everton

And that's just off the top of my head. Typical example of Ferguson having his head too far up his own backside. Mind you, he's indirectly given Liverpool undue credit for something. A club that's never even come close to winning the Prem since it's creation

---

Biggest? Hmm, I think he means level of support/watching the match. Given the support in some of the most populated areas in the world for both these two I can see why. Biggest as in best or most important, Not in a million.

The Milan derby matches are probably as big a derby game as I've ever regularly watched on TV. I watched a fair few of these on "Football Italia" on channel 4 on Sunday afternoons back in the 90's, and I remember often wishing that I was actually there at the game. The San Siro has long been known for its special atmosphere, and I doubt you can get a much better atmosphere than what you get there when AC and Inter play each other.

River Plate - Boca Jnrs

 

---

Keith v Cove Rangers

---

---

---

Newcastle v Sunderland anyone?

---

Think this is the biggest thing about that little derby:

---

United v Liverpool has got to go in that group, probably along with United v City too now. Blackburn and Burnley really hate each other too, makes for a fantastic derby according to my Blackburn supporting friend!

Well there you go, Gary. You've just highlighted precisely why it's pointless. Anyone who's ever been to a Bristol City v Bristol Rovers derby will know they are savage. Always loads of arrests, idiots running across the pitch to get to opposing idiots. Things being thrown, a real cauldron of bile that starts to build weeks before the game and continues afterward. All derby matches mean the same to their own fans (real fans rather than the ones from 300 miles away that watch the odd game on tv), so it's a rather futile point by Sir Al. If he means coverage, well that's down to tv isn't it. It's not a reflection of much else. I'm not saying it's not a big game for the respective clubs real fans, but it's barely worth a **** to anyone else

United getting hammered now - City fans chanting ''f**k off back to London''

United fans leaving 20 mins early - presumably to get their trains south.

EDIT: Unaaaaated 1 Shiteh 6.

They've torn them a new one today. Biggest home defeat for 56 years.

6-1 man city lots of red seats for the last 15 mins

---

 Brilliant! serves the glory hunting fans right, on the other side of the coin though city are basically buying their way to the top, who would have thought it would have ended 6-1 though, unbelieveable.

---

and it seemed that they deserved that! That is an unreal beating.

You can be sure of one thing: Sir Furious will have been giving his players one almighty blast of his infamous "hairdryer" treatment after that result!

---

Somehow I rather doubt that. Utd had a lot of the early play but weren't able to penetrate a very organised City defence and their first goal was very much against the run of play.......after that Utd fell to pieces. This was a very unusual failure in team selection and tactics which SAF will have to take the responsibility for.

---

I'll have to wait until I see the highlights of the game on MOTD2 tonight, but from what I've heard it sounds as though the way Utd fell apart this afternoon was along similar lines to the way that Arsenal collapsed at Old Trafford in August when Utd hammered them 8-2. A City victory this afternoon wasn't out of the question, but I would never have expected them to win by such a big margin. just like I didn't expect Utd to put 8 goals past Arsenal a couple of months ago, even though I thought they would beat the Gunners.
