If any of our players touch the trophy on the walk out, they should be sacked on the spot.

More merging than the M25 ;-)

Obsessive , let it flow today of all days

Getting really restless now. Will be setting off for the screening soon.

Think Pep will throw a curveball with his selection:

Ederson
Cancelo Laprote Garcia Mendy
Fernandihno Rodri Gundogan
Sterling Jesus Mahrez

City 1 Chelsea 4

I'm never wrong!

;)

What's this "throw a curveball" crap? What language is that from? Are there no English phrases that will do, instead of something I imagine is from a US version of rounders? Is there nothing from rugby? Tennis? Cricket?
I hate faux Americanisms. They have bugger all to do with our culture.
Rant over.

We dont do things the easy way , Gillingham , Bournemouth 3-3 (3-0 up a thalf time) , Bradford away , Balckburn hit the post four times and we win 4-1 , QPR , and som any more , this will not be straight forward anf that ref is a total twat , we are going through the wringer , but it will be worth every minute , PRIDE OF MANCHESTER .

I have mixed feelings all day. Confident to despair within the same 10 seconds lol. Oh to be a city fan.

CAS verdict really worried me tbh, waiting to hear the good news while every media outlet had us hung, drawn & quartered. Today is happy nervous energy. We have a good chance. It’s now in the lap of the gods.

The only niggling doubt I have about this game Is 93.20 & Gillingham. We had to suffer badly to get the result. I fear the same today.

My only niggling doubt is the ref.
I will be gutted to lose if it is all fair and square.
I just expect to be done over by some shocking officiating.

Is team news 1 hour or 1hour 45 before kick off?

 

[Centurions]

All platforms?
So will it work on my sky box if I don't pay for it? Thought I'd have to watch on YouTube and was worried about the glitching

Is this definite? Last I read it was only free on YouTube / the BT app, but to watch the proper broadcast on Sky you had to subscribe?

Well I'm going off the following which seems to be clear?

TNT Sports is not available in your region

www.bt.com

I've looked on Sky's TV listings via the box too and there's no indication you can't.

I'm going to be disappointed if not.

Edit: bugger, I've just re-read the bit on Sky. Virgin is free but it looks like you need a sub for the Sky platform.

1 hour 15mins so 18:45 mate

If you are sky ring up and put bt sport on and put it on to cancel in thirty days , be twenty five quid but if you want to watch it without fiddling about

I hope not. Where can I find a dipper bus to brick just in case ;)
