Gutted isn’t the word…

Stretford End Arising — Thu, 08 Apr 2010 10:31:44 +0000

How gutted are you this morning? Yeah, me too! Manchester United had the tie won if it wasn’t for poor defending from Michael Carrick and the soft dismissal of Rafael. United’s performance over the two legs was scattered with defensive blunders, from Gary Neville’s daft handball to Patrice Evra’s inability to clear the ball during [...]

Come on United – Believe: Manchester United v Bayern Munich Preview

Stretford End Arising — Wed, 07 Apr 2010 13:58:37 +0000

Rooney Worth the Risk in Season Defining Game?

Stretford End Arising — Tue, 06 Apr 2010 08:42:24 +0000

Lose to Bayern and we could end the season only winning the Carling Cup only, which rightly or wrongly many will see as a failure. No doubt [...]

If truth be known, we are lucky to bring Bayern to Old Trafford with the [...]

Match Preview: Bayern Munich v Manchester United

Stretford End Arising — Tue, 30 Mar 2010 15:34:30 +0000

Seeing Manchester United draw Bayern Munich for the quarter finals of the Champions League brought wonderful flashbacks and memories of that great night in the Nou Camp in 1999. “….And Solskjaer has won it” Can you believe it’s been almost 11 years? No, me neither. Over the last day or so I’ve been in a [...]

Stretford End Arising — Fri, 19 Mar 2010 13:10:32 +0000

I sat nervously waiting for the Champions League draw in Nyon this morning. The sense of anticipation was high; I just wanted the draw to take place without all the spiel beforehand. I felt shaky and continuously clicked my pen. So finally it came to the draw… Bayern Munich v Manchester United. A fixture which [...]
