Apparently they made an admin error on the distribution of tickets and forgot to apply loyalty points - dunno if that made a difference. I thought for them they were quieter than usual, saw very few of them in town eitherAnyone think the Newcastle fans were different to their usual selves? Just singing one song and no back and forth from them ?
Twas just kidding pal and you should be proud as a fatherOn the contrary, I've succeeded as a parent, according to my lights. I never let my parents make my choices for me, I have always been ferociously independent of family pressure (and indeed peer group pressure). It's the way I roll.
I have brought him up to have the same mindset. It's given me some real old shocks. As a an old sixties hippie, it was not easy to take it on board when over twenty years ago he announced to his mother and me that he was joining the army. He's still there and, being how he is, he's capable of being critical of the army and the way it works. It's the way he rolls.

You instill it in him as a baby, not when he's olderHe's his own man. He grew up as a tot in north Wales, then Japan, then China, and finally France. He would have laughed right in my face if I'd tried to impose being a City supporter on him.
In any case I've never been able to impose anything on him. He's his own man.

And the Magpies have to play CL games this season. Will be interesting if they cop for a Spanish side that, like them yesterday, takes no prisoners.Yeah; I wasn't impressed with Newcastle. They had more of the ball in the second half, but did next to nothing with it. How many saves did Eddy have to make? One, that I remember, and that was pretty routine. The Geordies will do well to replicate last season's finish. Liverpool, Spurs and Chelsea can't all be as bad again this time around, shirley?
He’s a young player learning a new system in a language he probably doesn’t speak. (That’s before you factor in geordie)Just thinking back to the game last night; how quiet was Tonali for them? Did absolutely nothing and they were better after he went off.
Contrary to the song, my Father did not say to me one day ‘is it red or blue for you, and if it’s red you’re out the door and we won’t see you no more’.On the contrary, I've succeeded as a parent, according to my lights.

It was more that Newcastle changed tactics to being more direct, sending long balls over Gvardiol and it took us 5 minutes to work out how to deal with that and stop it.City were gone after 75 mins dug deep and deserved it
You sure about the celebrations? I was reliably informed by Keys (hairy hands) that it was small time celebrating something from last year, ignoring tge fact first home game since.Great performance under the circumstances given the midweek efforts.
Brilliant atmosphere and great celebrations at the start made sure I lost my voice before kick off.
Foden was outstanding but a big nod for Kovacic; he was excellent. He drove the team forward and his ball retention and passing rhythm were up there with Rodri. He was the one making the midfield tick over.
Pep is obviously looking for him to push forward into the position Gundogan was playing and the early signs are really good.
Though Gvardiol looked pretty good too…Ake has serious competition now.
I was surprised there were no subs and Rodri looked absolutely shattered towards the end.
Unbelievable from them, they are clueless.Why on earth did Chelsea sell Kovacic?
were you there??? Puzzled by this. From my seat in CB3 i thought the newc fans were quiet as a church mouse.Absolutely fuck all on the right hand side, walker doing 2 jobs , and Newcastle fans win the day
One the train home and the only good thing was the result. Terrible welcome home by the fans for the treble winners
Contrary to the song, my Father did not say to me one day ‘is it red or blue for you, and if it’s red you’re out the door and we won’t see you no more’.
Despite both him and my Mother being Blues (and all my grandparents), he told me to take my time thinking about who I wanted to support. Rather than making me support City like he and Mam do, he actually asked me what team I wanted to go and watch and what shirt I wanted to wear.
He has always maintained that brainwashing young children into what the adult wants them to be like is the wrong way to bring a child up. He was open to let me be a City, United or Altrincham fan. It was up to me.
Same for everything, despite him being a staunch atheist, he sent me to a CofE primary school because it was a good school and he let me work out for myself there is no god and religion is bollocks (which I’d worked out by the time I was about 8), just like he let me work out for myself that City were the right team to follow.
My great great grandad arthur moved from leek to ancoats in 1898 and chose City as his team. Itd have been difficult and maybe a bit weird me supporting anyone other than City .Contrary to the song, my Father did not say to me one day ‘is it red or blue for you, and if it’s red you’re out the door and we won’t see you no more’.
