Community Shield 2019 - date confirmed as Sunday 4th August, 3pm ko

[bladdered]

Quite looking forward to this now. Anyone know why the date has not been confirmed yet? Suggests it's either 3 or 4 August when searched online. Always on the Sunday as far as I can remember so not sure why this would change. Scouse friendly fixtures? Anyway booked the train for the Sunday so a day on the tiles if it ain't.

We should boycott this.

I'm praying for the Saturday as I've got a Christening on the sunday, which I would be in the doghouse for weeks if I ducked

When does the AFCON run?

They could be without Salah , Mane , Matip and Keita

FA Wembley website said August 4th so booked trains and hotel. Now showing 3/4 August. They've found another way to fuck us up. May not bother attending if a Saturday and enjoy a Sunday day/night in London instead. Balls to them and the dippers!!!

Say hello to Mr Goater .
Providing you don't disappear in a triangle mind !!

Not bothering, price will be stupid, opposition are ****s and travel will be shite as it's a sunday.


If all prices are less than £40 which is unlikely may change my mind.


Should be on saturday too

I'll meet you for a pint then pal. Only possible reason I could see would be if Sky went after the Saturday night TV audience...now that the world beaters are involved.

Couldn't think of anything worse than travelling to the capital to spend a day with a loud of stinking scouse wankers who will be there to cause trouble, I don't know many who are going for the exact same reason.

Tickets were £20 last season even Cat 1 tickets were only £45.

If you don't go you are not City. Grow a pair.

Were they? I have slept since then tbf.

Well then I may consider going, still it's a sunday and the opposition are annoying

Will wait for the fixtures to come out may have some early aways that will be a priority over this

 

[Cheadle_hulmeBlue]

can't be bothered with it. I'm not going all the way down to london for a glorified friendly.

It's not a friendly which is exactly why I will be going to this.

 

[BosnianBlue]

I guess dippers will treat this like World Cup Final

This one will really set a marker for the season

Nothing better than watching City at Wembley...love it! Hope the tickets go on sale early without the usual restrictions like with Vinny's. Offer 6 plus to everyone from day one.
