SNSUN Posted 2 January, 2009 Share Posted 2 January, 2009 Without sounded too pesimistic, I think it's fair to say that hardly anyone will be predicting a Saints win. We could play out for a draw, but even that will take some doing. Whatever the size of defeat (which is what I predict), I just hope the boys play well enough to not disgrace themselves. Confidence is at a low ebb without a heavy double-figures defeat to have to contend with. Saints 0 United 5 is my prediction, with Kelvin doubling his price tag.

Big Ron fan Posted 2 January, 2009 Share Posted 2 January, 2009 Utd, with only about 3 or 4 regular first-team players, will coast to a 1-0 or 2-0 half-time lead and then take their foot even further off the gas. Final score 3-0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint J 77 Posted 2 January, 2009 Share Posted 2 January, 2009 well the way things are going, I would say minimum 4-0 to Utd maximum 8-0 hopefully it wouldn't be any higher than that. Although my mind keeps thinking of that time Man Utd beat Ipswich at Old Trafford 9-0. Whatever the score I think we all agree that we lose!

Dan83 Posted 2 January, 2009 Share Posted 2 January, 2009 The only prediction I'm making is that Surman and Lallana won't play, paving the way for their departures without being cup-tied or injured. This is a joke, happens all over the place - players who are off suddenly get a minor injury! Look at Heskey at Wigan who suddenly has an injury, and Onuoha at Man City who suddenly has a minor injury come cup-tie weekend! If they don't play Saturday, I'd bet my bottom dollar they're off!

Even if it was all Lawrie's fault do we still need to get rid of the memories of our greatest day? For A picture of a train. As for my prediction I predict we will lose, hope its honourably but fear it will be embarrassing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trousers Posted 2 January, 2009 Share Posted 2 January, 2009 Some mixed views on this Man Utd message board: http://community.manutd.com/forums/t/29443.aspx Several posters seem to believe that Ferguson will stick with his '2nd team' policy against Derby in the Carling Cup and take a relatively strong 'preparation for Chelsea' squad to SMS....

Pilchards Posted 2 January, 2009 Share Posted 2 January, 2009 Saints play superb and are heading for a 1-1 draw when some lucky bugger pokes the ball in to make it 2-1 to them.

La BoIS Saint Posted 2 January, 2009 Share Posted 2 January, 2009 Last time I checked on Betfair (can't do it from work) the "any other score" odds - basically either team has to score at least 4, no prizes for guessing which one, were around 4/1.

trousers Posted 2 January, 2009 Share Posted 2 January, 2009 Lowe is onto a publicity win-win with this game. Either way it will buy him more time at the helm. You can see the post-match TV interviews now.... A defeat will be heralded as a gallant effort by a young team "heading-in-the-right-direction". Anything better than a defeat will be heralded a spectacular demonstration that the 'plan' is on track (regardless of league performances).

IronCitySaint Posted 2 January, 2009 Share Posted 2 January, 2009 3-0 to them. Think this game will actually prove to be a huge anti-climax with them playing a bunch of 2nd and 3rd stringers and us missing a number of key players either mysteriously injured (i.e. being transfered) or loanees that are not allowed to play. There will be a lot of passing around in midfield by both teams but with them having the more class to actually put the ball in the net. Actually, all a bit like the last time we played them in the cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
