Thanks for the warm welcome lads. This is probably the best club forum I've seen, both in terms of numbers of members and general level of sanity.
I will defo come back from time to time to say hello, although will be careful not to outstay my welcome, being a Chav c*nt :)
I do think our two clubs have more in common with each other than with the other big English clubs. The way we are run, the unity within the club, and, very importantly, the colour!
Anthony Taylor: Seems I inadvertently picked the worst ref comparison it's possible to pick on a City forum. It all makes sense now - Taylor is a Utd fan, he takes great joy in fucking over Chelsea, but ultimate joy in fucking over City. Apologies lads. Should've done my homework. I just hate Anthony Taylor.
City 1-3 Us, 2016 Prem: I remember that game well, although I must admit I didn't recall who the ref was. As above, it all makes sense now. David Luiz got away with murder, probably shouldn't have been on the pitch at the end, and probably wishes he wasn't on the pitch at the end due to Aguero's slightly mistimed tackle, which resulted in a fair bit of handbags at the end. To say we rode our luck that day might just be the understatement of the year. City missed a hat-full, with Kev hitting the bar from from six yards out. Gary Cahill opened the scoring with one of the most creative OGs you'll see before we did, tbf, score three very decent counter attacking goals. It was, in the final analysis, daylight robbery at the Etihad.
Pep: He's the best manager of his generation. He's a trailblazer, a formula maker. As such he sometimes gets it wrong, but I'd say those times are far outweighed by the times he not only gets it right, but progresses the tactical aspects of the game to an extent that he's copied by everyone. I personally love him, and am aware that our own TT is the most 'Guardiolista' of the current German managers. TT has been a Pep fanboy for years, studying every Barca game, and probably every City game too. Pep will win the CL with City imho.
