Burnley Fc v Manchester United Fc (Match Thread) [mod warning post #537]

RasTa

The Living room or whatever it is called now is awful for games, like a giant bogger GAA club, walk 5mins down to Woolshed imo. Nice burgers too.

Good answer. I knew you supported Shels but wasnt sure whether you had a Prem team too.

Im the same, some of my mates cant understand why i want to go out and say watch an arsenal/chelsea game or even championship matches. The same when I want to go to watch a LOI match of watching Bradford when im at home. My answer is, Im a fan of football as well as UTD.

But A7X got the better answer imo

I'm not worried about your safety.

I just wanted to make sure I would fit in

If you're going the woolshed, the food in there is savage. Can't beat the half & half (wings and chips) during a session.

Where is the living room?

As pointed out, it's on C. Brugha st., beside the old Eircom building. It used to be called Sidewalks.

ntlbell wrote: »

anyone know what this place is like for watching the matches?

It's pretty good. Only problem i've ever had is when there's ice hockey on as the place is full of Czechs, Poles, etc. For the football there's a generally mixed clientele. Food in there is rubbish, though there's a geansai load of chinese places 'round the corner on Parnell St.

They have 15+ taps in the place with some really quality beers, only problem being that some of them are under-used depending on who's in there. They also do 3.5 pint pitchers for €11-12. If you are going there, my advice would be to order a pint of Paulaner with a view to moving on to the pitchers, and if its not up to scratch, bring them back and change them for Staropramen. There's usually enough people drinking that for it to be daycent.

5 live via uk proxy i'd say

ntlbell and Headshot, you appear to be too similar and it looks like one of you is talking to yourself.

Anyway.

Sometimes the regional BBC Radio don't need a proxy for streaming, so you may get lucky using something like BBC Manchester, see if the match is on there.

Dammit my secret is out, lolz

Hopefully the bbc stations on sateilite have the match

CR 7

This is on atdhe.net anyway, but chances are it'll be poor quality tonight, with the amount of people using streams.

Anyone know what pubs in Waterford showing the game , Alfies on Barrick St ??????

What are Nani's chances of playing tonight?

I think Fergie wouldnt want to rush him back, his shoulder clearly isnt better has he had to go off against Brum. One hard fall (on the Turf Moore pitch) or hard challenge (Burnley, eek) and he could be out for a long time.

Thing is though, both my fantasy football team and the Manchester United football team would benefit from some Nani-time.

Still no teams?

Looks good on paper with the exception of giggs on the left, hopfully he will play more centrally and allow Ando abit of freedom.

SK1979

Fletcher did have a decent game, SAF just changing the team around getting everyone sharp, hence why Ando and Carrick in tonight.

still a mystery why tosic was playing in the reserves

couldve been a great game to test him out today

ffs

Mitch Connor

Ugh - not liking the wings there.

Giggs was terrible on the wing at the weekend, kept coming inside which was a reason for our poorer performance in the second half. Park on the other side....ugh. He simply doesn't offere enough offensively and you would hope his defensive work rate won't be needed tonight.

Fergie might have thought it coud be a bit too much of a physical game for him, he's not the strongest but he is getting there tbf.

Boggles

Happy enough with that team.

If things arn't going well bring on Valencia, Berbs and Scholes.

If things are, key players rested.

Win. Win.

Giggs to be man of the match.

Headshot

right folks

i expect lots of updates here
