Is that you Bob?

Rainy days and Mondays get me down!

What about all the other days of the week it rains in Mid Wales, you lot must be permanently down ...!

hes also not thick as fck, he’ll have seen plenty go & end up disappointed & that he is getting plenty of game time. I’m certain he’ll be told his targets & expectations regularly.

I heard a blue slagging off pep for putting him on with 2 mins to go & I have wondered if that can be strategic for the team whilst resting him but maybe he could get bonuses. Maybe things kick in at certain intervals, 100 games etc

just watched his interview & he called pep a genius & he’s really happy.

I'm certain that some managers use late subs to help players achieve bonus targets. Expect the chairmen just love that!

Correct and he was burned out pretty young as was Michael Owen who played over 100 games before he was 21. Most of the football reporters at SKY (and some of the pundits) appear to be total morons who don't have a clue what they are talking about.

Overplay a young player and you risk wrecking him. See Trevor Francis and many others.

Oh he does but he at least admits he still watches us now having publicly vowed to never watch us again
Heres a piece where he said he ‘loathes’ our owners

The Manchester City fan who couldn't savour their 2012 title win

The Guardian only employs blues if they are of the weird, self loathing type. See also Simon Hattenstone

Was it Sir Marcus?


Just askin'

Could have been for the inte

Brilliant, even 'titsout Jackie' gets a mention.

I better never heard it in such a posh accent

 

[KS55]

I'm not insinuating anything.

However, I always like to look into the background of people, who seem to be continually at odds with City, wondering why, and for what reason?

Harris was educated at Manchester Grammar School and revived a B.A. in Politics from the University of York in 2004.

Harris began his career with the family's regional publication, the Jewish Telegraph,

Oh there's more, eh @Prestwich_Blue ?

 

[KS55]

Colin Schindler’s shameful anti-Arab dog whistle piece when he denounced his City fan status following the takeover. And then came crawling back when we started to win stuff

Have you a ref for the Schindler piece?

 

[BringBackSwales]

The fucking tone of Tyler commentating on the dippers v his tone commentating on us. A half with ZERO shots on target, and not a word of criticism, double standards doesn’t come in the slightest bit close

Just caught the end of the Football roundup on Granada. More than half the item was spent on Monday and Pep defending him. The game was brushed off in cursory fashion. By contrast Bingo Klopp's eulogy showed the demented one as being reasonable saying the title's wide open. As I type they've shoehorned Gerry Marsden in and that magical night in Istanbul. Never seen Meacock the Hutt so animated!

No agenda natch!

BBC Breakfast got several references on Gerry Marsden in their show this morning nearly all of them showing the mass of red scarves on the Kop and the dirge they film every bloody match.

I have nothing against Gerry who was part of my childhood and it struck me that many of the those singing his praises knew very little about him as his flame only flared relatively briefly.

RIP Gerry. I remember you for your cheerfulness singing corny songs not just as one of the many singers of a song from a 1945 musical.
