    1894 Singing Section vs Borussia Dortmund

    Yeah with safe standing at the back of the stand where it's proven to be the best place for songs to start and spread from. If only people saw that as a good opportunity for a vocal home end.

    It's going to take time and it's going to need the right balance. Some players come back without a problem, others never fully recover. What concerns me, but I is probably entirely legitimate, is how often he says he's not feeling quite right. A big part of the recovery is trusting your body to...

    11 | Jeremy Doku - 2025/26

    Not something you want to see us do, but something you tend to need to do to win the CL because the opposition will happily stoop to those levels. It was something it took us a while to learn as a team and then we had that famous night in Madrid against Atletico where we just looked to...

    So exciting to watch, you just expect something to happen. Minor criticism last night - should have played the pass to Haaland sooner than he did and ended up undercooking it. But scores a goal and just looks like he loves playing football for us. Has shown in a short space of time exactly what...

    25 | Gianluigi Donnarumma - 2025/26

    Critical tackles those, as we were completely losing momentum. Also liked the bollocking he dished out with the goal we did concede, where we just switched off.

    I would expect us to get that confirmation at some point soon. My expectation is they'll try and incentivise existing ST holders to move in the NS and anyone else who wants to relocate can, the new ST/Flexis will then be wherever is available. Had 1894 been given the comfort they wanted from the...

    It's a negative opinion though mate. It's looking at under 1,000 seats within an area holding about 12,000 and letting those negatives convince you it's not going to work. I said on the other thread a couple of weeks ago, if we were moving into the Etihad for the first time you'd get some...

    I still think the NS is a chance to seize the opportunity. Don't worry about some of the negatives, the club have said they'd add more safe standing. Go there in numbers and it doesn't matter if there's GA+ in there you'll have 6,000 like minded fans making a racket. Maybe the club then re-think...

    Borussia Dortmund (H) | CL | Post Match Thread

    A big win, a largely excellent performance but still that period where we were under pressure and couldn't do anything to wrestle control back. I look at this team with the hope to see us back at the very top, winning the league or CL so whilst I'm being overly critical, it is alarming we have...

    Superb tonight. One goal behind Gerrard in CL football with 20 overall. 10 behind Rooney. Shows how impressive Phil and City have been on the big stage.

    Borussia Dortmund - Wed 5th Nov, 20:00 | CL | Pre-Match Thread

    We have made the final in seasons we have beaten Dortmund. Granted a small sample size but beat them tonight and we will win the competition is the illogical jump I'm willing to take.

    Borussia Dortmund - Wed 5th Nov, 20:00 | CL | Pre-Match Thread

    I wonder if we will see Stones pushing into midfield again. It's helped us dominate the ball but think overall it's left us looking a bit vulnerable in transitions and we have had long spells in the second halves where we can't take control of the game. Hoping it's a traditional back 4...

    EDS (h) v Dortmund / 3pm Nov 5 / on City+ / tickets available / UYL (UEFA Youth League).

    Agreed. We can dominate a game but just can't defend the transitions. The way we play in attack seems reliant on a moment of brilliance from one of the wide players who then look for a ball across/back or a shot. We often lose the ball and leave ourselves short as a result. We've definitely...

    EDS (h) v Dortmund / 3pm Nov 5 / on City+ / tickets available / UYL (UEFA Youth League).

    It's a secondary route but not related to Europa League, it's related to the winners of the domestic U18 Championships or equivalent from what I can see. Villa are the English team involved and they won the U18 title last year.
