Manche$ter City v Arsenal - Sunday 18 December - 16:10 (GMT)

[LDG]

Christmas letters to Santa asking for a new bike or toy are usually endearing notes penned by wide-eyed innocent children.


But Mekeeda Austin has warned Father Christmas that he will be ‘killed’ if he fails to deliver at least two of her long list of gifts – including a BlackBerry smartphone and ‘the real-life Justin Bieber’.


The 13-year-old goes even further and threatens to ‘hunt down’ Old Nick’s reindeer so she can ‘cook them and serve their meat to homeless people on Xmas day’.


Her mother, Tracey, from Brickhill, Bedford, found the note – which ends ‘Remember… two of these, or you die’ – in Mekeeda’s school bag but has vowed to try to meet her daughter’s demands rather than punish her.


‘When I first found the letter, I thought it was funny. Now I think I’d better get her what she wants. The last thing I want is for her to kill Santa,’ said Mrs Austin, 40.


And the demanding Mekeeda added: ‘I don’t really believe in Santa any more but I was angry because I thought I wasn’t going to get all the presents I wanted this year.


‘I want all of these things and I don’t see why I shouldn’t get them.’

What a cunt.

[Olivier's xmas twist]

What a cunt.

It was only a matter of time before Ballotelli snapped big time.

There's snow in Manchester and bad weather predicted over the weekend.

Danger of it being called off.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Man up Mancs.

[Coney]

Man up Mancs.

Yeah - its Citeh so they only have to walk a few hundred yards to the stadium. If it was manu, I'd understand, as their fans have to come such a long way from Surrey.

With all that money, they should invest in a massive umbrella.

Hope we play and we hope we play in a waterlogged toilet of a pitch. We can take them in a game of hoofball at any time.

City were terrific for the first 25 minutes against Chelsea and their passing and movement was great.

They just didn't get enough chances for the amount of possession they had, but they're at home and it's the biggest test Arsenal have had for a while.

The Gunners have been playing very well and we know how good Robin van Persie is.

Last season, the Gunners went there and won comfortably 3-0 after Dedryck Boyata got sent off early on.

I fancy City for this one though, because their Champions League exit and their defeat by Chelsea will mean they are eager to get back on track.

And if they do win, the players will be thinking they really can go on and take the Premier League title.

Prediction: 2-0

Dont disagree with that

[Coney]

Dont disagree with that

I fancy City for this one though, because their Champions League exit and their defeat by Chelsea will mean they are eager to get back on track.

Or maybe their Cl exit and defeat by the chavs will mean they have lost a bit of confidence, meeting an Arsenal side that are growing in confidence.

Or something.

Whatever.

We'll know at the weekend but I think this one could go either way. Depending on who scores how many goals. : pointlesstvpunterspeculation.gif:

3-1 City.
