England vs. Turkey at the Etihad

[Blue Smarties]

Tempted to go to this and cheer on Raheem. Be arsed with any **** booing him at the Etihad. Reckon I'll be thrown out by the 5' for slapping someone.

About time they started playing games at stadiums other than Wembley. Might allow people outside of London to feel connected to the team that represents their country.

Couldn't agree more.

There are plenty of decent, modern stadia around the country that are more than capable of holding an England international.

Germany has been doing it for years.

Will City, or the FA be selling the tickets for this one?

As I understand it Bobby "Stan Flashman" Charlton has a few he could knock you out.

I went to that, or was it the Japan game. Six fuckin quid for a programme that had shite all in it! It was a stern reminder that the FArce only concern themselves with maximising revenue at the fans' expense!

I suspect that Joe will be rested while the RagDipperMeedya preferred goalie gets a game, and the team will no doubt be stuffed with Rags and Dippers.

Aye. Fucking sullying our dressing room. No doubt ;-)

Probably go to this if it isn't daft pricing. I love England, used to go down with my Dad and brother regularly when the new Wembley first opened. Might be pissed off watching reds play on our ground though.

I was in Majorca when we played Iceland at CoMS, great memories - I was only 11. Surprised it's been this long since we have had a game at our ground.

We went to that as well. I felt dirty cheering a team with Rooney & Terry in it. Never again is right.

Agree with this. I can't get my head around wishing shit on players when they play us and then cheering the same players on to be world beaters when they play for England and then back again when they play for their clubs. Apart from the fact that it can make you feel dirty, it makes you fickle and insincere.
Best avoided.

When Shrek was good before Ferguson coached it out of him.

That Iceland goalie was shit. The lad we had was far better. ;-)

So many City connections there. Vassell, Hargreaves, Bridge, Lampard, Sven, Arason. Was McManaman also playing?

 

[goalmole]

Aye. Fucking sullying our dressing room. No doubt ;-)

Never thought of that. We could always put a tent up in the car park for them.
