Sir Alex Ferguson has declared Manchester United's annual showdown with Liverpool the match of the season.
United head to Anfield with their ticket allocation reduced due to past problems and bracing themselves for another fierce reception.
Ferguson has already penned a note to those fans who are travelling, pleading them not to stand throughout the game, which has become a tradition among the United contingent but is not affecting the number of tickets the club receives.
To be fair you can't stay seated at such games Liverpool and United games are traditonally very tense tight affairs
