what happened with city against Wednesday for a long period Wednesday were 1-0 up did your players just not turn up for the first half?.
We are expecting a tough game against you, you will probably do what Wednesday did for the first 20 mins but we will not make the same mistake twice, Pellegrini has learned his lessons after Sunday...we hope

We will play the same system as we do every week we don't change the system the reason being it works we rarely conceded its a 4,2,3,1 formation
..........................dimi.........................
freind.....ayala...........gibson.......omeruo
............. leadbitter....clayton......................
reach........vossen/bamford.........adomah
kike/bamford

leadbitter and clayton main job is to protect that back 4 while the wingers and cam supports kike or bamford upfront its a system that keeps it tight so i dont believe we will change it even if shef wed had success doing it another way.
I thought Adam Clayton got an injury recently ?

No he just got a red card at Barnsley so will miss the next game against reading
OK thanks, thought I'd read a report that he'd had an injury.

One from our academy, he didn't renew his contract at City after being on loan at Leeds, couldn't blame him really as he wasn't going to get a game here, tend to look for him, and a few others, to see how they are doing.

"looking at that forum they seem to hate us lol"

Ha ha - I must admit that back in the mid-late 90's 'Boro were amongst my top 3 hated sides, with a rivalry on the pitch being trumped by events off it whenever we met. As DD said though, a lot of it went both ways though I seem to recall the 1990's spats coming about originally as a result of the league game at Maine Road in 1995 against a newly promoted 'Boro. A mob of their fans turned up at The Clarence at about ten to three when most City fans had already cleared off to the ground. After a bit of fun and games in there they made their way over to The Albert and, according to a 'Boro fan of all people writing in one of their fanzines who was down here as a guest of a couple of City fans, the landlord got a right kicking.

From then on over the next few years it was pretty much tit-for-tat but since we got up under Royle in 2000-01 a lot of the animosity has diminished and we've played them plenty of times in the meantime. Of course, with them bringing a big following coupled with the added edge of it being a cup tie, the potential for trouble will be higher than if it was a bog standard league game.
 
What did you all think of Adam Johnson? I got the impression city fans did not seem to like him when he at the club or at least he was not liked as much as James milner.
