Manchester United v. Liverpool, 05.04.03 [R eventually]

[GoHawks4]

Big match. Big big match.

[Flying Weasel]

Double check your dates and times. This weekend is Euro 04 Qualifiers and Int'l Friendlies.

The Man Utd - Liverpool match is the following Saturday.
4/5/03 at 6:30am* ET

* - The reason for 6:30am is that Great Britain & Europe change to DST on a different week than the US.

But you're right about one thing: Big big match.

[GoHawks4]

Stupid me. I guess I can't read. :mad:

Mod care to fix this?

[Lanky134]

Now, if I was a mod, I'd give it a sticky. :)

But then, that's one reason why I'm not a mod.

That sucks--but we'll be ok as long as Spud plays. He always scores against Man Yoo :D

Owen 'very doubtful' for United clash

Gerard Houllier today conceded Michael Owen is "very doubtful" for tomorrow's Premiership clash at Old Trafford.

The Liverpool striker underwent treatment on his back injury at Melwood this morning, but the Reds' boss admits his side may be without their 22 goal marksman for match at Manchester United.

"Michael is very doubtful," said Houllier. "He had treatment today and we'll leave it until tomorrow before making a decision.

"When you play big games you always want your big-game players to be available, but if he isn't then it will give an opportunity for someone else to come in and do a job."

Liverpool have no other fresh injury worries ahead of the clash at Old Trafford.

My guess at the matchday squad:

……………...Dudek

Carragher—Hyypia—Traore—Riise

Murphy—Hamann—Gerrard—Diouf

…….. Heskey—Baros

Subs:

Arpexhad
Diao
Smicer
Biscan
Mellor

I'm hoping Mikie plays after a Sir Alex like miracle cure. Other than that I'll agree with your lineup.

[TheMutts]

if someone could answer this ASAP that would be great.

FSW printable schedule says Man U and LIverpool at 9.

FSW "Whats on Today" says Man U and Liverpool at 6:30

and my digital cable says 7:30

It's on live at 6:30 EST. The 9:00 you're seeing on the printable schedule is for the 12:00 showing (you're looking at the PST, which is listed first).

[Flying Weasel]

Anyone gonna be at Summers for this one?

[TheMutts]

thanks Lanky! Gosh I got to get up early now :(

[speedcake]

Yep, due to time change the game is on early, 6:30 a.m. Then, as is usual at FSW for big games, it will be replayed at high noon. YIPPEE!!!

You can catch it at 12:00 if you can stay away from the computer long enough.

And, Weasel, many of the regular crowd will be Summers, though not me.

[TheMutts]

no I have to watch it live!


IT is halftime right now. Man U scored in the 5th minute off a PK given up by Hyppia. He also recieved a red card. Ruud Van Nisterloy scored. Towards the end of the half Liverpool started attaking more but other than that it was mostly Man U.

[Dr. Wankler]

Well, that was a foregone conclusion after about 4 minutes.

[GoHawks4]

This is shit.
