The Catwalk

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

You're getting turfed out of there and they're turning CBL3 into a Harvey Nicks.

If Harvey Nicks sell meat and potato pies AND a hot Bovril, I'm in!

Seriously though, a fucking catwalk!

Can it get any worse, more ammo for the press wankers to aim at the club, it is ridiculous mate.

Sorry
It's a catwalk too far for me

Fuck off city, thats bollocks

 

[KingCarlito]

Embarrassing. Didn't see it on the night as walked round the other way to the pub for once. But seriously hope this isn't going to stay as a permanent fixture.

To be honest - doesn't bother me at all. The only reason it's being slated by the media is because it wasn't a scum catwalk. Let's face it, if they'd got a decent ground & had the room to parade their players, they would - and it would be lauded as bringing the players to the fans.

Not worth a thread or worrying about imho

They need to throw a couple of swimsuit models into the mix.

@stony and @TCIB are doing their warm up stretches ready for Wednesday.

Is a cheer from the fans as they come out onto the pitch not enough? Bit weird that and it's a bit weird if you want to go and get involved in cheering them on the catwalk.

I think there may be a disconnect with this. You don't want to put your players that far above the fans.

Yesterday in Abu Dhabi the players were completely bemused by the OTT security who were physically dragging people out of the way from getting photos with them as they moved from the training pitch to the hotel at Emirates Palace. Aguero in particular couldn't believe what knobs they were being.

The players themselves seem completely open to a bit of interaction with the public but someone is making the decision that they should be treated like untouchable gods. It's all a bit cringey to be honest, and so far removed from how it should be.
