The staggering thing about that list is how few are Rags.
 
So the latest clutching at straws is that we will stumble when the busy Christmas period arrives. Dont any of them realize the squad depth we now have and that all the other teams also have to play a congested schedule?

We need fortune to be on our side re: squad depth. If Stones or Delph get injured, we wouldn't look like we have much depth at all.

What he fails to acknowledge is the average age of the team/squad has been reduced from near 29 to 25.

Why does the Goatfeeder just think that the Christmas period is going to be hard for only City, is it not the same for all teams, also he states that City have tough matches v Rags and Spuds, I look at it the other way ,that they have really tough games against City. Pundits spout shite about what happens if Stones or Otamendi ,or Siva or KDB or Ku or Jesus get injured, without thinking that any team would be weaker should they lose 2 or 3 regular players. Last year was it not about Christmas time when Chelsea started their exceptional run, Xmas did not seem to disturb their form. Take no notice, I would have had more respect for what he said if if had actually been able to deliver when in at the pointy end, ie, in his managerial job

Posts were removed that werent just a case of name calling,they were sexist and mysoginistc in nature,certainly not the type of comment you would tolerate if it was someone you care about,not that that should make a difference.

Now,with respect,if anyone has further issues with moderation either pm a member of admin or the boss himself,thank you.

Must admit it always puzzles me why blokes are fair game to any sort of untold abuse. Especially on the media thread, Justified too. Ive read those comments on Rudd and I'm scratching my head why it breaks the coc. Yet the other stuff is fine.

Edit. Its just been explained.

From FI’s pm reply to me, those that were taken down were out of order. Those left up didn’t break the CoC. Explaining this so he doesn’t have to repeat himself since I already asked.
