    Tickets went on open sale at Gillingham. I drove round the M25 and paid cash for mine from their ticket office. No queues, no questions and seemingly as many as you reasonably wanted. I was sat in the Gillingham end so no-one left early. What made it bizarre was how many of there fans had...

    Media Discussion - 2023/24

    Laura Woods. Oh dear. On what basis was she chosen, recruited and by whom? Any answers for the same question for other presenters and pundits?

    I know there is a faction who portray Peter Swales as a some kind of martyr who died for his love of Manchester City and his quest to catch up with ManU. I've yet to read any facts to support this and anything beyond his self interest. They forget the fact is that we were a dominant force in...

    Hence the rise of fanzines, finally a voice for fans not just from City. The credit to editors of all fanzines should never be under estimated. It was the first uncensored source and a voice for fans. That the likes of King of the Kippax survived so long is a remarkable testimony to the passion...

    Yay! Something must be afoot if Rabin has posted again. He is a weapon and it reads like an opening salvo. Do keep us updated.

    Media Discussion - 2023/24

    I am old enough to remember when the discussion on this thread was about "is there a media agenda against City?" That debate now seems settled.

    England v Belgium | Friendly | Match Thread

    The picture painted by @ChicagoBlue certainly resonates with me. The issue is the disconnect between the FA, responsible for the England national sides and the amateur game and the professional game. It is what still holds England back from International success. It is no accident that better...

    England v Brazil | Friendly | Match Thread

    England looked like in a schoolboys trial game with too many players playing for themselves rather than the team. Southgate must take some blame. The lack of team structure became more apparent as more experienced players left the field starting with Walker. Hard to take anything from the game...

    Jordan. Bar room boor. Know it all who doesnt listen. Tried to talk over Stefan who put him straight. Jordan still didnt want to hear as it conflicted with his set views.

    Football Governance Bill (Independent Regulator) introduced today

    It is amazing how little the Premier League has come under scrutiny with little questioning and fewer answers. It appears that Masters took the job because it is above his pay grade so an opportunity for a well rewarded career progression where he was only required "to follow orders"...

    He had hoped for better from Newcastle. The realisation of how far they are behind City hit him hard. All he had left was to talk of "flukey goals".

    North Stand Expansion

    Hope they got a good price and that it lasts better than most similar private driveways.

    Liverpool (A) | PL | Post Match Thread

    Doku had already kicked the ball. His bent leg and the direction of the ball negates claims of reckless or dangerous play. No pen for me. Mac Allister was doing what Liverpool players had done all game by aggressively going for the ball even if it meant through the player.

    North Stand Expansion

    @jrb photos and experience confirms what we knew. The development of Anfield mirrors what happened with the Old Trafford expansion decades ago. It is hard to see the PL being so amenable to accepting shortcomings of developments at the grounds of “lesser” clubs eg, a basic modern expectation of...
