Early start for Cup clash

January 31, 2006

Unsurprisingly, Manchester United's plum FA Cup tie against Liverpool has been moved to accommodate the TV schedulers.

The tie will kick off at 12-30 on Saturday 18th February as it is to be screened on the BBC.

Other ties to be screened are Newcastle v Southampton on the same day (5.40 BBC), Chelsea/Everton v Colchester (Sunday 4pm Sky) and City away at Villa (Sunday 6-30 BBC)

The early kick offs normally lack atmosphere might work in our favour at Anfield.We can win.

Probably best for us to play them during the daylight, that way our cars will safer while it is still light!

Bring ON Liverpool I say.
The hunger and passion of United is there for all to see and fear. They couldn't beat us, even with our rag tag mid-field, and they supposedly dominated us?
B*llocks!
Gerrard made ONE cool pass, and Cisse was stupid enought to miss a sitter.
We took our chance, with a powerful header, taken right between supposedly the best defense pairing of Hyppia and Carragher.
In YER Face Liverpool.
Hope you choke on it, and the FA Cup game when it comes.

Looks like United will be the first club to go out of the cup in the 5th round. Better off coming to watch FC win the NWCL Division 2 cup. Come on FCeeeeeee.

Does anybody know of any bars in New York that would be a decent place to watch this match?

Tough game for United not sure what free red was on about. I presume you were a united fan and have jumped ship. If Fc is your club and you feel nothing anymore for MUFC then good riddance.
MUFC and anti glazer.
