the commentator on my feed said that both of Doyle's Grandfathers played for City in the past if I caught that correctly, how cool is that!Tommy Doyle looked decent when he came on

First game I have watched since the Liverpool heist and Bernado being allowed to be branded a racist.
Foden starting and the fact it wasnt a premiership game persuaded me to give it a watch.
All the youngsters did well and as others have said Foden was exceptional, but it was against Port Vale but surely now time for Foden to be given an extended run in the side to show what he can do against the best opposition.
The finishing was again appalling and will continue to cost us particularly whilst the defence is so poor. Today the defence wasnt really tested but despite that still managed to look shaky at times.
The Vale goal I thought was just a good simple old fashioned goal. Pope actually showed that whilst obviously not him but a player like him ie old fashioned centre forward is perhaps what we are missing in our attacking options.
Finally VAR. What a fuck up it is, and as it is one of the two big reasons I fucked it off. From what I saw today I did not get much in the way of an urge to reconsider my decision not to bother watching anymore.

Angelino was at fault for me, too slow and hadn't properly tracked the winger, but at the end of the day it was a brilliant cross and a great header.People in the match day thread slating Bravo for their goal which was unfair but par for the course.

Indeed they did. Mike (Doyle) and Glyn (Pardoe). Glyn's daughter is Tommy's mum. I assume.the commentator on my feed said that both of Doyle's Grandfathers played for City in the past if I caught that correctly, how cool is that!

I live in hope he is going to get his head sorted out and start to really play to his potential. There is a great footballer hiding in there somewhere.Stones is far too casual and not good enough imo. He nearly cost us a goal with a shit pass. After this season I can see Pep possibly trying to get rid.

So I am told.Is that who it was ? C**t, made Hinchcliffe sound like a blue. We had 2 goals awarded by VAR, what the f**k ?
Well played boys, bit slow in the first half for me and too many passes that didn't mean anything, bit more direct second half and played some good stuff, it was only 15 minutes or so for Tommy Doyle, but he got really involved, all the young lads shone, but Phil Foden was really good, his movement was brilliant.
Fairly sure one of (or several among) our staff or players shagged his missus based on his commentary.

Absolutely spot on.Whats more important though is the FA allowing the biggest cup comp in world football domestically be tainted by some games having VAR which will benefit/discriminate against certain sides whilst in other games, goals are given or not given because it isn't in use.
