Tonight's football thread

If we beat Everton we will win it IDP. Goodison has been a bit of a graveyard for us in recent seasons so now is the perfect time to put that particular ghost to rest.

Still fancy liverpool..

Good win for us, I know only Norwich, but we've lost plenty to the 'only x' teams this year or struggled.. we just went back to what we do, pace, energy, and looked much better. Still issues but think it shows we're not as bad as league position or pundits make out..

Not much to chose from in the Conference play offs Stags, Halifax & Grimsby both have some nasty violent fans, Gateshead play in an athletics stadium where you need binoculars to see the players so hopefully it will be Cambridge

Gateshead all the way, half of them are Hartlepool has beens, saying that Hartlepool are lucky to not be in the conference

City back on track for the title???

I know. I've never been so happy to see City win!

I guess this puts to bed the argument about who are United's biggest rivals though.

"We are a team that tries to win in a sporting manner, " Brendan Rodgers complaining about Chelsea's tactics..

And just last week..

I still think they will win and deserve to, I cant see City winning such a crucial game at Everton.. as much as it will hurt them I think Everton will win the title for Liverpool..

Just seen Danbert, if Arsenal win tonight.. 3-0 up after 70 mins.. then beat West Brom at the Emirates.. you face an Everton team with no hope of CL football and not much to play for.. as if Arsenal win the cup 5th and 6th will get Europa anyway, which is a consolation prize anyway..

I'm going for you drawing and winning two of the final three.. Liverpool drawing at palace then beating newcastle.. you get it on GD.. again..

Agreed that Arsenal win tonight might just be a factor in us possibly winning the title.

Everton fans will not be up for it like when we usually play there. You can't help but think this will run through to the players.

We will be on our game 100% concentrated. There will be a big difference in the mentality of both teams.

If we score early, it's done.

We need that early goal, then the Everton fans will cheer us and their players will get the message and mentally switch off.

The Bacon rolls they sold at Cambridge's ground were worth the trip alone

No central defenders and no Gareth Barry, City must be in with a chance!

Really pleased to see the Newcastle supporters having a go at that *anker Pardew tonight. They could have had a go at their team as well though, gutless performance.
