    Borussia Dortmund (H) | CL | Post Match Thread

    This direct attack/counter stuff with less control is what we started 18 months ago imo. Last season we struggled to implement it and i think we sort of abandoned it a touch at times, and this season it might finally come to fruition, if not perfection.

    Atmosphere Thread | 2025/26

    i really do agree with this answer, but to a point. There has to be some comment about the detached nature of constant drumming, any support that doesn't react to a goal is quite odd. That is why i much prefer the Italian and Greek support, it's passionate and verging on hysterical at times...

    Atmosphere Thread | 2025/26

    As much as I agree with many on here saying it's like white noise and almost detached from the game (not reacting to a goal is weird, i agree), if the away fans out-sing the home fans and make the home fans eventually just give in, then that is a big win for their fans. I know on the pitch they...

    Atmosphere Thread | 2025/26

    I'm sorry but at this point I'd take a fucking face full of drums, the atmosphere at the etihad - and the general apathy - is ridiculous.

    City bets: 2025/26 season

    we're a tough bet at the moment, getting some good results after an inconsistent start. Both teams to score was my friend against Bournemouth and i'm tempted again against Dortmund, at 1.75

    Holidays

    Valencia was fantastic, we had a blast. Still plenty of sunshine (22 to 25 degs) and a bit of rain, cool at nights. Loads to see and do, and the cycling around was really fun and easy. Great destination for a 3 to 4 day getaway, even 5 or 6 days if you take in day trips to Albufera lake and...

    Champions League Games | Gameweek 4 | 4/5 Nov '25

    Don't care about the Liverpool result, just ensure it's brutally tiring with a couple of pulled muscles sprinkled around

    Will we win the league this season?

    If we're behind them by any single figures by Xmas, I'll hold onto that. Beating them at ours in April could be enormous.

    Will we win the league this season?

    On paper it looks like a chance to make up a few points, as you say Paper and reality are obviously 2 different things. I think we need to avoid loss to Liverpool and then get stuck into that run post intl break. (Obviously i want us to beat Liverpool but i don't think drawing with them at this...

    Is Manchester airport the worst in Europe?

    I flew out and back into MCR airport last week, Saturday to Saturday. In the spirit of fairness, i will say that on my last few uses of MCR, i have had pretty trouble free experiences through security and what have you, and coming back into the country has been pretty quick too. In fact at the...
