New assistant coach??

Brilliant! Not sure we'll ever get a European away at our level! We did see City win at Spurs last year though........ Worcestershire to North London down the M1 on a Friday evening - and a bloody speeding ticket on the M6........................ It'll be easier when he goes to University next...

As "newbies" since 2017 we've been watching the Leicester type games 2 or 3 times a season. Understand we have to put some hard yards in. We got lucky when we saw Arsenal, Bayern, Liverpool (carabao cup right after the World Cup). Just hoped it would carry on that we'd see some games that...

Well just got through again after nearly 2 hours, both on the mobile and PC. Same message again which is definitely WRONG. We're 5-6 games a season, relative newcomers, how long term regular fans put up with this I don't know. Methinks they speak with forked tongue.

Bloody hell, how many games do you do?

In all honesty didn't expect to get anything. But as Cityzens members of the last 7 years whilst we always had to be sharp and on the ball to get decent tickets, it's now really hard to get anything at all. We're 100 miles away so work and, school for the lad, means mid week games are a real...

Was in the queue to buy, then kicked out. Now saying restricted to "Cityzens Matchday and Junior Members who have purchased 5+ home Premier League matches since the start of the 2022/23 Season". Which I/we have but not letting in me in!

Thanks to everyone who replied, it's been a big help. Especially in assuring the wife he's not moving to an inner city cesspit. Strangely she's more worried if he chooses the Birmingham City university than Manchester. Had a good walk around the other week when we came to the Southampton game...

Not sure if I can link. It's The Bottle Rockets - Perfect Far Away.

Lionel was brilliant, great character.

Shopped in a different ALDI last week and they had Garibaldi. Bloody hell they were unputdownable!

So far we've worked out that the course and it's content are the most important. Followed by his own feel for the University and area (Keele obviously pretty special in it's own way). As you say we're not obsessing on rankings, red brick, Russell group or any of that, partly because a lot of...

Interestingly, the course lead who took us around Staffordshire Uni last week was the first person to really explain this in depth. No punches pulled about the mix of research, lectures, and the work they did in the private sector. Mostly up until now it’s been much less up front.

But does he have a sister?

So sorry to hear that, hope she got the result she deserved despite the circumstances. A key question we’ll ask is about the size of his course and contact with lecturers . He’s the type who could get “lost” in a poor/big organisation. Went to Staffs Uni last week and one of the senior staff...

No connections to the Jewish community, just loved the bagels from a proper bakery. Never had anything like them ever. It was just to say I was hoping from what we’d seen so far there would be a load of cheap shops and they’d usually be where cities have a mix of cultures. He’ll eat/try...

It's likely to be his first choice and right at the top of his expected grades. Of the Uni's we've looked at it will be the least likely to make offers below (although they did this year). So he'll have to be bang on it. He does work pretty hard to be fair. "We're not all bad, you know?" I know...

He's the luckiest kid really from a football perspective. He chose a city shirt because of the colour when he was 5 (September 2011) when city were not the all conquering behemoth they are today. Kids at school (in Worcestershire - so close to Villa, Wolves, Baggies and Birmingham, were all...

What happens if they're man-nited supporters? Or even Liverpool, you're much closer to scousepool up there than we are ;-)

That was pretty much what I was expecting to hear mrbelfry. I'll be whizzing him down to the ASDA and market first of all! And to the local Asian and Middle Eastern supermarkets, I just wish we had some near us. My sister lived near Finchley in London and I had a field day when visiting, topping...
