You didn’t miss much Centurion.Probably the reason I thought we were playing today (Wednesday) and missed the first half...
True story sadly :(

50 minutes of adverts thenApologies if already posted but Sky Sports have an hour long programme on Sunday at 7:30 "Drink it in, the rise of Man City" its in Sky sport PL HD.
Is everyone ready for the onslaught over the next 4 days?
Is that the script of a Klopp interview?Listening to the media akways reminds me of the sketch in Monty Python's the meaning of life where Michael Palin is a priest grovelling before God....

Wtf was this cretin Dennis watching last night? Atleti 'didn't quite park the bus'?!
They were 5-3-2 with their forward players closer to the back line than the half way line. Whenever we got anywhere near the final third they scrambled back into a 5-5-0 . Even when they did get forward and lost the ball in a challenge their players first thought was to turn and run back into their defensive position rather than try and win the ball back.Wtf was this cretin Dennis watching last night? Atleti 'didn't quite park the bus'?!
Us Blues certainly know a 'parked bus' when we see one, Ian old son.. for the past decade and more, 95% of teams visiting our gaff bring one and a similar number also park it when we play at theirs.
The only difference between your average Premiership team doing so and last night's performance from Atleti is one of scale. Premiership sides are more of an 'Early Doors' level of blockade/disruption ('Those temporary traffic lights at the top end of Piper Street, past McVitie's up to the bank on Bird Hall Lane..'), whereas last night Atleti treated us to a full-scale 'Operation Brock' and 'Operation Stack' on the M20 heading to the Channel ports.
As for the second leg, if we can get the first goal I think we will win and progress to the semi-final. Sadly, I also think that Atleti will ramp up the behaviours we began to see from them in the second half.. bad fouls, assaults on players, conning the officials and so on. I just hope we get through it unscathed.
