So -push comes to shove - City are playing Utd in a cup semi final. You don't have access to a ticket, but the match is on TV Sunday afternoon......and (just to ramp it up a bit), you have no way of recording the game to watch later....your SKY+ or TIVO is bust.....and you threw your video recorder out years ago!!



Same day, Leigh are hosting Dewsbury in a championship match. This is April, so the season hasn't really settled into it's rythym yet, but Leigh are top four, and Dewsbury are struggling to buy a win.



Leigh game is a 3pm start - the football kicks off at 3.15



Do you go and watch Leigh, or the footy on TV??



The one you choose is your real passion - the other is just summat you have an interest in, when it doesn't clash with your real passion!!

I used to go and watch United every week, and try and watch Leigh too . However that was many years ago before United won premiership number one.

Ive seen them win at Wembley and lose there too. These days Id choose Rugby over Football as the games changed, too much diving and cheating in Football these days.

Although theres one thing that Ive always done since being a little girl is follow Man Utd. My grandad supported them and he was my hero, my username is his name.

In fairness your last statement isn't entirely true unless you compare like for like, as I'm sure a run of the mill early season football game would lose out if put against us playing in the Challenge Cup Final

The draw bridge being pulled up would have a big sway on any 50/50 choice of mine

Anyway.......does anyone have the answer to the OP's question??





And you thought Blackpool last year was 'leaving it late'!!!

Incredible finish to the season, when I heard City had equalised I knew they would get the winner

This is what dreams are made of. When Chelski turned Shaun Wright Philips head a few years back (our best player at that time) and signed him, it seemed curtains that City would ever challenge for the big prize again.

The best teams in PL have been the biggest spenders, which spoiled the competition. Sheikh Mansour has made the impossible possible for us Blues. Roy of the Rovers stuff



We have always known that we are the best team in all the land, even when we was in the third tier. We have just had it rubber stamped and made it official.



Just a reminder to the Utd fans that have always thought supporting success and taking the Mick out of true loyal fans, a great classic song from OT:



This is how it feels to be City....

This is how it feels to be small....

This is how it feels when your club wins nothing at all.....



Altogether now.....



Unlucky Bolton. Rather have Bolton stay up than QPR.

We've got a 50/50 house tonight. My partner is a City fan and when I used to watch fuzzball, Bolton were my team. Not just gutted for Bolton but for the North West. Just glad that Wigan stayed up as it would have been disastrous for the area. Having said that we may have got a few more through the gates.

Man City have won the league title for the 1st time in 44 years, whilst United have won it 12 times in the last 20 years !



Shame about Bolton, I know most of their fans HATE Man United because of all the trophies that they win, but I would have liked them to stay up. QPR have quite a lot of money also, and it's pathetic that they only stayed up because Bolton drew.

Bolton were relegated on points gained over 38 games not just the last one.

Sadly, you're exactly right. Not exactly a shock given how poorly we've played for the vast majority of the season, but gutting all the same.

I know, but they are MASSIVELY in debt, and it's a disaster for them.

Like all clubs, they need a Sheikh Mansour
