So is Keown on BT , the champions of England on the BRITISH Telecom channel and all they keep going on about is Leipzig .

Same with Townsend and the commentator on Bein Sport. RBL need to do this, do that, too attack City, blah, blah, blah.

Erm sure that Jake wanker presenting has just asked ‘where is the aggressive Leipzig we expected. It has to be better’ and then ‘the home fans are trying their best to get their team into it’ or something similar. He’s desperate for this ‘really good’ Leipzig to get back into it.

The five stages of commentating on city games when we are winning.
denial that city are any good, fondly recalling the last time we were beaten.
anger that the opposition are not trying hard enough.
bargaining - all it takes is for city to lose concentration once.
depression - long silences, comments about money and how much the subs/defenders cost.
acceptance - full time.

Worse than that, he was moaning that it was City, 1-0 up, away from home, in the first half, who needed to take more risks. Why doesn't he just come out and say it: "Hope City overcommit and concede another counter attack goal, that's how you beat City you see".

Where's VAR when it's needed. Climbing and some.

Ian Dennis tried the money angle and she hit back.

A friend of mine who owns quite a large business and is well clued up reckons the Glazers have been buying land around Old Toilet for some years now but don’t want to get into the development of the area. They will just keep hold of valuable land until it reaches its peak price. I’m only the messenger here, I’ve no knowledge whatsoever.

Did someone sell them the bridge over the ship canal?

Tomorrow will be about the fallen giants in the Thursday Night Has Beens Cup , with the Ragsvbying for a quadruple , top four , Carabao Cup finalist , secnond rate european trophy and FA Cup Quarter finalists , not bad for a billion spend over 5 years.
Scum

I could be wrong, but I thought The Rags bought the freight handling site between the stadium and heading up towards the Trafford Centre a few years back, quoting security concerns. Didn't want a site adjacent to them where "terrorists" could launch RPGs.

I can just see the mibs getting off the train from Euston and marching down Market St with their RPG's.
