They were being dick heads and weren’t letting City on the tube.

Still no excuse for throwing fists

City won it against Watford.

Last season as 2018, lol. Only in May if we won FA Cup again, it would be 2 years.

 

[M12Blue]

So we didn’t lose to tottingham in the champions league?

For a team that’s won the European cup / CL on penalty kicks a number of times, you’d think they would know scoring more penalties on a penalty shoot out means you WIN

I wouldn’t do it mate, but at the same time if I decided to purposely refuse people entry onto the tube, I’d expect repercussions.

Lets beat them up then

 

[Abattoir Blue]

It’s great to have City back, there’s barely been a day all Summer without a game in though

Those 4 days in the middle of July were tough.

Arsenal, not City (so he says, and he should know)

Last stream I watched with him on, he was raving about Spanish Dave and followed it up with "It's not just because I'm a City fan either Arlo"

Enjoyed the concourse for the first time at Wembley yesterday.
The lack of clowns near the 544 section was a refreshing change.

Always nice to beat them, but not sure it was particularly deserved (although in some ways that makes it sweeter). We were by far the better team in the first half, but thought we were poor in the second half and they looked much more threatening. Suggests it will be a very close title race again. Looking forward to it.

We tired in second half. The way City train (with the ball) possibly means it tales a bit longer to get to full fitness. Also, Liverpool are horrible to play against at the best of times. Also, I wouldn't be surprised when we rock up at Anfield to see both Rodri and Fern in midfield. Rodri looks like he will be a fine successor to Fern but we missed Fern's dynamism at times yesterday.

I wouldn't read too much into the game but we know enough about both teams already to expect there to be a battle for the title.

Im sure there was a lot more to it than that aswell, always the victims springs to mind

Blue as a kid

I thought we were the better team. Salah is dangerous but that apart, we created far more chances from open play until our fitness levels dropped off. I thought Sterling was brilliant.

Whilst I don’t condone such actions at least it wasn’t a pre meditated attack by thousands of people on the innocent few or I hope it wasn’t.

They made 6 changes in that 2nd half. I really wouldn’t read too much into it. We were leggy and they seemed to be much fresher.

I don’t think they get within 10 points of us this season. Genuinely don’t. Last season they had the benefit of a lot of luck, and unless VAR is deliberately manufactured then they will lose that edge.

I don’t dispute they are a good team, or good at what they do, but I think we are much better.

Lol, well he certainly changes his tune when it suits him then

Ah but the result is always negotiable with these people. After the result, ie City win on penalties, there's a whole load of baggage to factor into the equation that puts Dipperdom ahead of anyone.

 

[Franknorgrovesnephew]

But the Dipper Echo says Flopp has found pep out with that second half display haha

So if we don't score in the first half Klippity has produced another masterclass! The Echo takes its place in the RDAHMeedya hierarchy!

I like this because they think that Pep has one way of playing; wrong.

 

[kinky's boots]

Sat in a tiny pub in cornwall surrounded by plastic scousers who couldnt find liverpool on a map if they tried.

Oh my god the nonsense they were coMing out with.
United will always hold a place in my heart for most despised but these fuckers are running them a a close second.

Weird, odd, cult

Ha- I was in a big pub in Cornwall surrounded by dippers, strangely none of them with a scouse accent- the only blue there and it was magnificent :)
