So Dowie beats Man U at Old Trafford

WSS

First time Man U have lost to lower league opposition at OT since York in 1995.

The team that they put out was a decent side as well.

Great Dowie management?
Off night for United?

Will this result have any effect on our game on saturday?

Big up to the 11,000 Coventry fans as well - great night for them.

29 Kuszczak
26 Bardsley (45 Brown )
23 Evans (56 Carrick )
19 Pique
25 Simpson
17 Nani
30 Martin (45 Campbell )
22 O'Shea
33 Eagles
21 Dong
08 Anderson

Not the side I'd generally think would be in Man U colours but well done to them, bit of an untimely boost as far as we are concerned.

Yes

Also Cov played a side containing quite a few reserves last night as well.

Might be a good time to play Coventry on Saturday.

A case of after the Lord Mayor's Show as they struggle to raise their game against a mere Championship team, perhaps?
Or will Dowie have Coventry prove a point for him?

did chuckle to myself when i heard their star man was called 'The Maltese Mosquito'.

If ever there is an example of a Dowie signing......

How will it effect us ? Well it will go two ways, but i think the key point for us will be to get a good start under our belts. When they went behind to Ipswich last week, they folded.

Dowie started with 3 up front yesterday, will be interesting how we will respond to that.

We'll still win on Saturday, no change in my view, your first 11 is better, so looking forward to a good away win at the weekend
