    Heaviest home defeat you've witnessed either at Maine Rd or the Etihad

    Maine Road I think, not The Etihad, unless we’re thinking about different matches. They were 4-0 up inside 20 minutes and could have scored as many as they wanted, but eased up and it finished 1-5. I also remember getting done 0-5 by Liverpool in the early 80’s. Sammy Lee scored as did our...

    “City in crisis”

    I hope that’s the case (that the nettle will now be grasped), but when ‘age’ was brought up by a journalist this week, Pep’s response was to wax lyrical about experience and how Real Madrid had won the CL with a midfield of Kroos, Modric and Casemiro. I’m not convinced by the Groundhog Day...

    87 | James McAtee - 2024/25

    Piss poor of Pep not putting him on today. Seriously, what’s his incentive to stay at the club? if he can’t get a game when Lewis, Bernie, Savinho and Gundo were as bad as they were today, then he’ll never get one

    2 | Kyle Walker - 2024/25

    The problem is that he still thinks he’s got the pace that he’s so clearly lost. Getting tired him of him jogging the first 5 or 6 paces of every foot race, thinking he’ll be able to overhaul his opponent like he always has done in the past, and then failing to catch them. Got the brains of a...

    26 | Savinho - 2024/25

    Mind bendingly lightweight. Muscled off the ball incessantly, gives the ball away incessantly, and an absolute fanny. Only 20 years old though and having to adapt to life in the toughest, physically and mentally, league in the world, so I’ll happily cut him some slack, but nowhere near good...

    Spurs PL (H) | Man of the Match

    Speaks volumes that a sub who was only on the field for 15 minutes, and was no more than hit and miss, should be romping away with the MotM award……indeed I voted for him myself. As a club, we’re in a serious mess right now. Savinho wouldn’t look out of place in Doncaster U17’s, the very...

    Brighton & Hove Albion (A) | PL | Post Match Thread

    Pep initiated our current slow control game plan, because we were struggling to defend against quick transitions and it worked for a couple of years. However, our squad is 2 years older (the engine room in particular contains Gundogan 35, DeBruyne 34 and made of glass, Bernardo 30 and Kovacic...

    Brighton & Hove Albion (A) | PL | Post Match Thread

    This season is about one fixture and that’s that effing tribunal. Win that, today won’t matter and we’ll rebuild properly in the summer. For the record though we’re a fucking mess at the moment. Old, tired, slow, unfit, weak willed and imbalanced. Not a good combination

    Plenty happened. Just none of it good….!

    “City in crisis”

    Count yourself lucky and don’t be tempted to go looking for a re-run. Second half was the most inept, lazy, turgid, gutless, incompetent, slow, brain dead, pathetic surrender since the pre-takeover debacle at Boro. Simpson-Pusey gets a let off cos he was a kid making his full debut and Foden did...

    Sporting CP (A) CL GW4 | Man of the Match

    Each to their own mate, but his 4 minute cameo was abject beyond belief

    Sporting CP (A) CL GW4 | Man of the Match

    Simpson Pusey, if only on the grounds that he’s got the excuse of being a kid. I have no words for Savinho, Gvardiol, Nunes, Akanji, Lewis and Haaland’s performances, and DeBruyne’s 4 minute cameo was about as hapless as you could get!

    Bournemouth PL (A) | Man of the Match

    Absolute no brainer. Eddie. The rest ranged from the reasonable (Bernie, Josko, Doku), via the average (Foden, Kovacic) and the poor (Akanji, Haaland, Nunes), to the absolute gash (Gunders, Ake, Walker). As a collective whole though, we were as soft as fucking shite. Hopefully the result will...

    Injuries 2024/25 | Kovacic ruled out for a month

    It’s not just the numbers, it’s our customary bad luck positionally. All four wide players out at once, robbing us of every last vestige of pace

    PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

    Given that the whole purpose of this witch hunt is to stop us taking 'their' trophies and prize money, that's probably not the toughest of questions to answer.......

    Melchett will definitely be on it…….

    City launch legal action against the Premier League | City win APT case (pg901)

    That cnut Rob Harris. Last seen asking Pep if he was being paid via a secret account, when we won the double in 2019

    Media discussion - 2024/25

    Can’t be arsed linking it, but I see Wilson has offered up yet another rehash of his one story again today in the Guardian. All those lunatic Arsenal and Wolves fans and their foam flecked, dribblings about corruption, cos refereeing decisions didn’t go their way this weekend? Well, you’ll be...
