Reserves v Blackburn tonight
- Thread starter Elliott
- Start date
-
In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
It is live on MUTV, 7pm kick-off.
Thanks, mate.
will there be a stream?
It's actually not a reserve gameWoohoo!
I've been fecking starved of reserve games this season
All our reserve-players are either on-loan or with the first team for the WBA game...IMO - it should practically be our academy-game all over again
Strong squad to select from
Posted on: Mon 26 Jan 2009
Iain Brunskill has once again got a strong squad at his disposal as his Reserves side take on Manchester United at Morecambe's Christie Park this evening.
Following on from his substitute appearance for the first team against Sunderland in the FA Cup at the weekend, new signing Gaël Givet will get another run out.
He is joined in the squad by fellow first teamers Jason Brown, Zurab Khizanishvili and Martin Olsson.
Striker Nick Blackman will be looking to make it three goals in three games after scoring on his debut against Oldham in the Lancashire Senior Cup and then last week he rescued a point for the Reserves in their 1-1 draw at Bolton Wanderers.
Rovers will select from: Brown, Kane, Givet, Khizanishvili, Winnard, Gunning, Hodge, Doran, Judge, Marshall, Clarke, Villanueva, Olsson, Blackman, Nielsen, Marrow, Haworth, O'Keefe, J. Santa Cruz.
Manchester United: Amos, Evans, Derbyshire, De Laet, Chester, James, Eikrem, Drinkwater, Macheda, Petrucci, Brandy, Stewart, Devlin, Norwood, Bryan, Dudgeon.
Kick-off at Christie Park is at 7.00pm.

Strong Blackburn squad that.
Would assume that 'squad' is the team and subs in number order 1-16.

Ah bollox, now Im in a pickle. Do I ditch college or not? The fact Petrucci may play means Im very close to ditching it.

Anyone pm me a Decent stream?
I'll be using the usual Flash FLV Player.hope there is a good stream
Guess what I decided on!!!
Seriously young team out there. Good test for them tonight.
I love the FLV player.
Half an hour gone.......Blackburn have had most of the play although we have had one or two half chances.
Our defence is being worked hard by a much more experienced Rovers side.
Still.....we are still in the game at 0-0!

Chester playing very well, the new lad from belgium is looking v shaky.
37 minutes......James put Petrucci through and he had a half shot on the edge of the box......put it wide under pressure.
0-0 at half time.
Not the greatest of games.

Half time: 0-0
to be fair to both teams the pitch is more suited to rugby
Half Time.
Blackburn the better team in a poor enough match football wise. Uniteds better players so far would be Chester, Derbyshire and Amos. De Laet has had a testing first half. The midfield needs to take some sort of hold on the game to get our 2 Italians into the match

back, now I can watch the game, cheers elliot
1-0 Blackburn
2-0 Blackburn
Looked like handball to me. 2-0 now poor defending
Ouch, two in quick succession
Shows the importance of not pissing about near your own area I suppose.
What a cracking goal.
2-1 Brandy after a fecking cum shot pass from Petrucci
Cracking little finish from Brandy 2-1
Petrucci with a brilliant lofted through pass to Brandy who then neatly lobbed the keeper.
Incredible through ball from Petrucci with the with the outside of his foot and a great lobbed finish from Brandy
Brandy looking a lot livelier second half
Yeah he has got better as the match has gone on. Still looks a talent when he is on the ball!
De Laet has been brutal and could be off
Has Macheda got a chance? How does he compare with Rossi?
Yeah he looks a bit sloppy!
The ref has missed a few fouls both ways!

He needs to sort out his petulant side.
