His thoughts on the empty seats are wild. There is a man without kids, who doesn't drink complaining about others not attending. Bad that.

he's got kids. Nice bloke and down to earth. Friends with a lot of people I know including sponsoring them for various things.

But the video was a strange one

Sorry, clearly doesn't take his kids to games then. I see him everywhere and on his own. He doesn't have the expense as many others, or the convenience of work flexibility. He's a top guy, just got that one horribly wrong.

Don't want to revive a now-dead debate but… this isn't a handball??

Is that published online somewhere? (to prove it's not been MANipulated?)

We had two brain farts against Forest and got away with it. We had two in the Etihad Derby and gave the rags an undeserved win. Moral of the tale don't fart about at the back.

Or anywhere else on the pitch if you choose to play with a slow midfield. My only complaint from Sunday was that we kept making unforced errors which has been the story of the season. Fortunately they weren't punished on this occasion.

Just thought I'd mention the Phil and Gundo pre-match warm up - I was three rows from the front so had a great view. They were volleying the ball 25/30 yards to each other - taking it on the chest or left foot/right foot, juggling. They must have volleyed the ball to each other seven or eight times without the ball touching the floor. Phil received the ball on the volley, flicked it onto the back of his neck, rolled it onto his right shoulder then down his left shoulder then casually sends the ball back to Gundo. The routine only finished due to a change of drill. I'm 64 - seen a lot of our football to say the least but Phil and Gundo's incredible skill in the warm up blew my mind.

Certainly an improvement on Valeri Bojinov injuring himself in the warm-up at Villa Park many years ago.
