Thanks for all the info mate,....average cost of a pint in centre of Manchester is approx £6-6.50 now,so a cheaper day out down yours.

Shit, i thought its cheaper up north. I know clubs in Brighton charge about £7 pint but not pubs.

Anyone have any concerns that we over celebrated last couple of days and we may lose some focus?
I'd have rather we held off on the celebrations until after the season had finished.
Winning the league early May go against us.

Is there anything to suggest we have?

Cheers, yes its been an amazing season, the football under RDZ is amazing. Potter started it, however it seemed that we were passing just for the sake of it. It is suicide football at times with the passing out from the back, but when it works wow. RDZ has learnt from Pep, was not aware how close a friendship they have. Seen ghe pictures of them out at dinner but even the advice Pep gave about taking the Brighton job.

Its how ling we can keep him for though.

Until Pep goes then he is coming here :-)

I'd have just held back on the parties until we have completely finished but then again I am a miserable bastard.

My local in Salford averages £4.00 a pint,it's the City Centre thats dear as fuck.

I Think in a couple of years he will be good enough. Just needs to keep away from the shit shows chelsea and spuds.

It must be annoying. The whole world and his wife could see dumping Brighton to go to basket case Chelsea was a mistake. It was a shock to me as Potter, up to that point, appeared to have managed his career really well. I do understand on one level. The lure of a so called bigger club with a bigger budget. But that doesn’t make it easier or better as we’ve seen. It’s very much how the club is run and Tony Moon is certainly building a rep as a chairman to work for.

Er… you're thinking of Moonchester a bit too much, probably. Tony Bloom.

On another note. Some of them over on North Stand Chat properly wary of all the ‘nice’ things Pep's been saying about RDZ. Rightly so.

Self-awareness is an admirable quality ;-)

Brighton and Brentford are there for us to keep rhythm and sharp. Basically a mini pre season.. Everyone speaks of our team unity, nights out like Sunday are part of the reason why..

What's Boris doing these days?

 

[ManCityGR!]

Pep said that we have some players with some niggles.

That worries me a lot. I hope it's just minor minor issues that require 3-4 days to be resolved.
Because against Brentford we have to play a strong team for at least 60 minutes to gain momentum for the 2 finals following.

Do we know more information about which players had these niggles?

Niggles = Hungover
It is just an excuse for why he will be playing a weakened team tomorrow.

 

[Haaland94]

I saw this training picture today. For those of you who follow the EDS team, is Galvez someone deserving a chance here? He has been training with the 1st team for some time. He is a LB, so that's a fantastic start, but is he worth looking into, like we did with Rico?

We could give him a shot tomorrow :).

I definitely over celebrated but am relatively sober now.

 

[Blu1]

Play the kids. A point will be a huge result here under the circumstances.

Maybe 20 mins leg stretch for a few that’s it.

Don’t really care

No. The opposite. I’m delighted that we can go into this game without giving a shit about the result. Hopefully Pep has given half of them a few days off and they won’t even travel.
