Mid-week Football

[StefanWolves]

The only reason he did it was because he knew the match against burnley is big and they had no chance with united. Got walked all over, so hardly shows they have 2 players for every postion.


We had a good game with arsenal last night, should of won in the end considering that fletchers goal was onside. That linemas was against him all game.

Excuse me, did you watch the game? or were you at the Burnley game? which I HIGHLY doubt.

Yes, obviously its a bigger game cause its a more realistic win, and lol? do you EVER watch football? United lost at the weekend and have been playing ****e, and Wolves have been quite good of late and are high on confidence + I don't care what anyone says, they are no where near the team they were last year with Ronaldo and Tevez, Owen and Valencia simply don't compare with them.

As for your 'YOU GOT WALKED OVER!!!!! HARDLY SHWOS YOU HAVE 2 PLAYAS FOR EVERY POSITION!!!!!!!!!!!" - go watch the game, I was happy with the performance our RESERVES put up against a 90% full stength Manchester United side, we could have had TWO early goals, I suggest you go watch it, before blabbering **** like that around this forum.

Can't wait till we thrash Burnley on Sunday.

Enough said.

Burnley just drew with Arsenal, you just beat Tottenham. Both teams are in good enough form. Burnley are at least good enough to stop you being so cocky.

it's different come the last games of the season when the big teams have CL games coming up though isn't it? :eusa_wall i have to say i fully accept and agree with what mcarthy done.

I don't regard myself as cocky, I regard you as a hypocrite though.

Thanks, at least someone else see's it how I do.

Our game kicked up some controversy. Shows we have 2 players for each position that can do a job. United struggled in the first half vs our reserves.

i dont see why mick mccarthy is being so criticized. to be fair, I dont think wolves were ever going to win this fixture at old trafford so why is the media (and who ever else) disrespecting his choice to put his second team out on the pitch? personally i think it was a great idea, like many managers do, to see which player from the starting 11 deserve a first team place. i know many managers (top flight) use second choice teams for the carling cup and such, but imo wolves are a team to me who'd want to progress as far as possible in the tournaments so they'll put their best team out.

but yeah. i was surprised when no one created a thread for mid-week football.

t'was a good week, but i dont really like week games, much prefer them to be played over the weekend.

Burnley eh? i think they're doing great at home. beat us 1-0 earlier on in the season and got some pretty good results.

[StefanWolves]

They're in some patchy form of late, they can't stay up by winning two of every five games at home. :/

Their away form is appalling.

[Grainger@CUFC]

Beat Bradford 3-0 on Tuesday night, setting up the Norther Section final with Leeds, which I can't see us winning. If we'd have played them at this stage, we might have had a chance, but over two legs, I seriously doubt it.

On Mick McCarthy's team choice, he should be allowed to play whatever team he wants. Will Everton be repremanded over their team selection in the Europa League tonight? Probable hypocrisy as always :rolleyes:

[StefanWolves]

Exactly, didn't Everton but their second team out today? and a 16 year old our left back?

Pah, wonder why Sky Sports News aren't on their tales, idiots.

Yeah, I think there was only Hibbert, Osman, Yakubu and Rodwell that were definitely recognised first team players in the starting eleven, which was about 8/9 changes, so I believe. Ridiculous how the same situation can be seen in a different light by the media, when it's basically for the same reason.

[StefanWolves]

Its cause were little old Wolves. Simple.
