It would start the season off on a brilliant note....save a fortune whilst boiling piss.Why should we refuse to play it?
We are still Champions of England (& the World if I remember correctly) so let’s show off. Show ‘em all.
Boycotting or refusing would just start the season off on a bad note and set the media dogs on us again. (Not that they ever stop but let’s not feed them).

FA website says Saturday, so seems certain.

Oh dear....you're trying too hard !!Save a fortune for who?
My only thought was how old are you?Any thoughts on City withdrawing from the CS.
The game should be held at the home of the Champions as winners of English footballs elite tournament.
It's only at Wembley to pay off the incompetent FAs debts for a wrongly located ground.
What have the FA ever done for City or us fans.
We'd be better holding internal game twixt the academy teams followed by one twixt the first team squad.
Free to all season ticket holders etc then £10 adults/£5 u 18s open sale.
Make it an annual pre season 'open day festival'.
Thoughts ??
Twixt, an archaic term for between first used in the 14th century.
Begads man, between would have been fine

I’m guessing that would have been discussed before the FA stated as fact, it’s a Saturday.

Hope so as we've already booked non refundable digs for the Saturday night.I’m guessing that would have been discussed before the FA stated as fact, it’s a Saturday.

The 2012 Community Shield when we beat Chelsea at Villa Park was the last one on Sky. It was then on BT Sport until 2020 and has been on ITV from 2021 onwards.I wouldn't bank on it. It's normally on Sky and they love their Super Sundays.

It'd be nice to win this (albeit irrelevant trophy) to get the season off to a good start.

All pre season games are meaningless. It’s why they’re called friendlies.
Pretty much every manager in every sport since time began have thought they were worth bothering with in preparation for the real stuff though.
