Definitely seeing a pattern emerging as to how we are being reffed.
Joelinton was allowed a free rein to kick our youngsters all night but never saw a yellow.
its now getting Pep's goat up as well

On the plus side, not paid for 1 game…..


Now give me my League Cup Scheme points City ;-)

You’ve never heard of stalybridge Celtic?

Disappointing that Pep didn't counteract Newcastles early subs and we were so fucking lethargic in that second half. I suspect Pep doesn't give a fuck with our fixture congestion.

Saves us putting out a kids team in the 1/4 final due to club world cup commitments

Spot on

Dec 16th Palace Home
W/C 18th Dec. Carebo Cup QF‘s
Dec 23rd Brentford Home. Cancelled coz we will be abroad
Club World Cup Final 22nd Dec/ 3rd place play off likely 20th or 21st Dec

Dec 26th Everton Away

Brentford exited tonight but don’t like the look of shoehorning that fixture in around 30th October.

Too many players started who aren't really good enough to be City players. They're squad players whom everyone needs... but not enough to help us win difficult matches.

Positives. Bobb was classy and we got minutes in the legs of the squad.

Grealish will have to start taking his man on if he wants to start. Doku doing what he does and much more.

 

[kenbelly]

thought Bobb and Rico did well tonight in a much changed team, and Doku just offers more at the moment to Jack. I’m sure jack will come good again but he has serious competition now which will be good for him.

Chris Kavanagh - unknown​

Another referee for whom there is huge conjecture as to who he supports, with the whistler having been born in Manchester.
The fact that he has taken charge of eight United and seven City games means that despite the speculation, he does not follow one of the big teams. Suggestions that he supports Stalybridge Celtic have not been confirmed.




The ref is from Ashton. Do i even need to suggest the obvious? Also who the fuck are Stalybridge Celtics.

A team in Stalybridge tbf

Phillips and Gomez simply aren’t good enough for us.

Not sure what Gomez did wrong ? Thought he was fine first half, then he was put at LB again (didn't do a lot wrong there either for me), but he really isn't a LB.

 

[incred]

Gomez, Phillips and Grealish not good enough.
