Is the prayer room open in the new stand?! Im getting emotional already, maybe get the sniffer dogs to multi task as therapy dogs!!

 

[kunaguero10]

Ederson is coming back for the game get him in net

Joe Hart just signed a 48 hour contract ;)

I can see a mad scoreline coming, like a 7-2 (to us!)

 

[Corky]

It is turning into a circus.

I used to enjoy the last games of season dead rubbers, but this seems like an ego massage rather than a football game.

TX.

 

[PabZabb]

Really looking forward to seeing what the club (and maybe 1894) have got planned before/after the game. I’m pretty sure Pep, Bernardo and Stones will get a fitting tribute

 

[Don Karleone]

Last opportunity for him to pull the unexpected out with us - but it's not in him to not want the win.
Oh to be a fly on that dressing room wall Sunday

I think we'll get to see that dressing room one day. City will probably do a documentary about Pep's last season. I hope so, anyway.

 

[Half Time Draw]

5 huge flags have been made for tomorrows game. Will be interesting to see what they are?

 

[Kippax Street 1880]

Donnarumma

Nunes
 Stones
Aké
O'Reilly

Bernardo
Rodri

Foden
Cherki
Doku

Haaland

Shirely we win this?
Villa have had a busy few days including a parade during which there players must have had a little tipple since the game is irrelevant to them?

 

[DenisLawBackHeel74]

Think it will be a draw, with everyone just wanting to stay fit for WC and thinking of their hols…

Interesting, big, how big ?

 

[Claytop]

Mr Whippy will be there.

 

[St.Pauli support]

I'm actually over it, but still the thought keeps creeping up that we didn't have a hot team fighting for a win at mighty B'mouth for whatever it takes to not be throwing away the title so easily.

What a missed chance. Ah well. Not to be.

 

[Big Joe Corrigan]

Interesting, big, how big ?

115 x 115.

 

[James2401125]

Game is irrelevant now hopefully a city win . There won't be a dry eye in the crowd when bernardo, stones and pep speak to the fans

 

[Half Time Draw]

Well they cost 23k each apparently so big :) maybe some are for the event on Monday i don’t know. Was told by somebody who works for the company making them that they were being delivered today to the stadium.

 

[BlueMoonRisin’]

The icing on tomorrow's cake for me will be if David Silva turns up. Gutted we never got the chance to give him a proper send off. Be great to see my favourite ever player show his face and sing his name again.

Atmosphere should be amazing tomorrow, can't wait.

Wow !

 

[citymad]

The game will be played at testimonial pace but it’s not about the football. It’s about 2 absolute legends leaving the club and one man who is probably one of, if not the most important Person in our history.

I don’t give a fuck about the title or even winning the game. This game is about a thank you from 57000 blues to Pep, Bernado and Johnny……Johnny Stones.

It is going to be a brilliant day!

A game that will be emotional. Will be loud and will be fun. Villa fans will be happy and so they should be. Winning that is quite an achievement and won’t go unrecognised by Pep behind the scenes. I’m sure Peps departure won’t go unrecognised by Emery and Villa either.

I’m really looking forward to it.

Love that post!

 

[TShed]

This reminds me of the last day of Maine Road never been so upset just walking to the ground before the game let alone the rest of the day

Lost that game to the Scummers
This is Our City
So don’t give a fuck about the result tomorrow

Think Monday could be even worse when that bus drives past ffs why oh why ????

 

[CambridgeExileBlue]

Does anyone know when the post match celebrations may end please?

We have a lot to cram in and my son and I will not want to miss any of it.

May need to catch a later train back to Cambridge.
