From memory I think we kicked off about 12/12.30 as England kicked off at 3pm (strangely we didn't have any players in the England team that day!!!).
I was in the boozer for about 11am, great piss up, great City support that day and a good result too as we were starting to get our act together in that division by that point.
My only visit to The Madjeski stadium so far. For me, It certainly has better memories than Elm Park , a bit of a dump really and we were truly shocking the last couple of times we played there!!

We did beat them 7 - 0 there in 1968 though

I was there.

At the final whistle the pa announcer said

" ladies & gentlemen, you have been privileged to watch the best team in the country "

but we have no history !!

It’s not Bild, it’s an English online newspaper.

I was at Elm Park in 1993 when City beat Reading 4-0 in an FA Cup replay.

Don't have any ginger Belgians.

Sounds like a type of biscuit.

Yes, forgot about that one, that was the season we were sure it was 'our year' to get to the final..until the Spurs quarter final happened! I remember i saw us win there in a league cup game round about the same time come to think of it.
Although the 7:0 was before my time I also went to a (proper) 2nd division match in the 80s when we won 2:0. So I guess seeing City at Elm Park wasn't all bad...but those last 2 matches at that ground(when we were really shit) really were shit!!

Unless there's more within the article I'm not sure why you've posted that bud, it is Bayern Munich who are appointing Little Tommy Tuchel who previously managed in the PL. Nagelsmann is of course linked with Spurs and they do play us shortly so it is all relevant.

If they claim inside that we're all Germans when they play us you can ignore the above :)

I'm struggling with a picture question in the daily quiz in yesterday''s Times 2 pull-out. It shows a ginger-haired man in a light blue shirt, with the caption: "Who is this Manchester City and Belgium midfielder?"
I don't know the guy.

Émile Mpenza?

 

[Gorton_Tubster]

why dont sky just fuck off with their bias. Today is all about Rodri being beaten by an lfc player and utd players playing for scotland.... The shite clickbait tactics of Sky absolutely annoys me to fuck. I cant believe the knobheads who pay for Sky....

Then its wenger and saf in the PL hall of fame.

Then its Haaland being investigated by the police.

Made for utd and lfc fans. why would any City fan subscribe to that!

 

[Shaggy]

Have City got a big game coming up at the weekend ?

Nope, playing some midtable outfit.

 

[Kinkys Left Foot]

A game against one of the red cheeks of the same arse no less.

Shit headlines all week denigrating the club, manager, fans, ground, team and players in general.

Rinse and repeat - the media in this country are predictably infantile, biased and not fit for purpose.
Don't engage with it, your life will be far more pleasant.

So we all know the score ahead of a meeting with one of the redshits
Thursday….headline grabbing smears.
Friday…..ask snidey questions at Pep’s presser
Saturday….. make sure the PiGMOL stooge is on message.

As soon as I saw the Erling piece on the BBC Website I thought “must be the Dippers this weekend”

Sunday.... Why City scoring 10 is good for Liverpool ;)

I try and get to the Etihad when I can but I want to watch City when they are playing and unfortunately that means paying for a sky/BT subscription.

I know others will call me stupid for not using a fire stick but if it wasn’t for the money that the PL attracts, would we have our current owners?

I only watch live matches and the golf, I never have sky sports news on due to the bias.

In the 2021/22 season, Manchester City earned more money from televised matches than any other Premier League club, with a total broadcasting revenue of over 146 million British pounds.

Pep should just ignore any stupid questions at the press conference on Friday. He should say that he will discuss this weekends game only. In other words fuck off with your stupid obsession in trying to distract us from thrashing those victims from Anfield.
