I love Sir Steves line..."everyone loves an underdog...we can go to this stadium and enjoy it...and we cant lose even if we lose"!
Clearly the Man u`s and the Chelsea`s have significantlly greater resources throughout their squads but spirited plucky little collectives like our good selves with the flow of events on our side can most certainly topple the mighty from their thrones.
When looking at predictions pre season fixtures like these realistically had nil point attached to them so any booty would be a massive bonus.The main thing for me is that we compete for the 90 mins and should United grab all 3 points they damn well know theyve been in a game.
The worst case scenario is that United welly us without even getting out of 2nd gear as some even on these boards seem to predetermined.It must be said If we do a capitulation and roam around clueless and lifeless like V Blackburn(2nd half) that is a dead cert.
Cautiously optimistic about the game.I believe the lads will be right up for giving a good account and clarifying to any doubters out there that Reading FC are where we are on merit alone.
