But they were both 4 for 1p - the good old days/ And them big fuck off lumps of chewing gum (I think they were 1p each)

And ‘gobstoppers!’

I can't be bothered to read through all the posts. Has anyone any idea who the ref is tonight. Is it a ref form the prem or like the one we had against Rotherham 1 from the lower leagues.

I’m on the cup scheme but for some reason I don’t seem to have been charged for a ticket. Can’t find any emails from city. Anyone else had a problem?

I would think he will get the gig irrespective

Mmmm, not so sure. A cup final against another top 6 team, you generally put your strongest available team out. A bit different to our recent LC finals with Caballero and Bravo, who are both senior no 2's and had effectively been promised the domestic cups. Although he's done well, Muric is only in the squad by default. Personally I'd play Ederson. I might think differently if we weren't playing either Spuds/Chelsea, although, of course we have to beat Burton first (and Muric might have a mare and chuck the ball in his own net). If we win it, Muric would get a winner's medal wouldn't he, even if he didn't play in the final?

Pretty sure Pep will go strong on Wednesday.
Expect he will rotate Sane and Raz again on the hour and give Kev another 70 mins.
Stones and Laporte Danillo and Delph back 4. May rest David Silva or rotate with Bernado or Foden with Ferna and Gundo the same. Kun in front of Jesus or maybe a front 2.
Muric
Danillo Eric Stones Delph
Gundogan
Foden KDB Barbados
Sterling Kun

Bit unfair playing a whole country against them isn't it?
