Do Not Sell My Personal Information

Manchester City 2 Manchester United 3

It’s the FA Cuuuuuuuuuup! I’m determined this tournament will come back into vogue and I couldn’t get much greater assistance than a Manchester derby. Let’s do this thing…

City are on the cusp. The brink. The verge. Their league position has them exactly where they want to be. But fresh from a depressingly feisty Liverpool performance they will seriously need to regroup and show some steel here. United by contrast have been going through the gears and Torres gags to one side they looked far more worthy to progress in the Champions League than Chelsea.

I’m struggling to see City win this. Wembley, the roar of the crowd and sense of occasion will of course play their part, but for both sides and United have been here, worn the tee shirt and lifted the silverware many many times before.

My overall prediction is 2-3 to United. Which is 33/1.

Nerves of steel and 11/2 is the bet for you saying that this will be decided in Extra Time.

Difficult to believe even with Rooney & Tevez out that this will be a low scoring affair and so 2.5 @ 6/5 looks like a handy banker. Will Mancini really try to park the bus after that tactic’s disaster against Liverpool? I think not.

Balotelli is the name of the moment and my crazy beer buying bet of the day is him as Anytime Goalscorer in a Utd 2-3 win @ 60/1.

Well now, when it comes to football, one man has for many years been the most noticeable, the most controversial, and occasionally the most successful blogger this country has ever produced. His pithy words and abrasive style make him as famous off the pitch as he is on it. This man is Escapini. "I love football. Football she's a cruel mistress. She's, she's more than a mistress. She's a wife, she's a mother, she's a daughter, she's an errant child. She's a… she's a… she can make you laugh, she make you cry. She can bring tears me eyes. She can bring blood to me shoulders. She can bring a kettle to the boil." "Cause football is about nothing, unless it's about something and what it is about, is football."
