Just leaving now really looking forward to this one and a night out in Southampton tonight. Come on blues loud and proud.

Just don’t commit any silly fouls near the area

To be fair mate most fans don’t. I think it’s predominantly used in the matchday forum by “fans” who tend not to go to the games.

I reckon you are probably right mate, just doesn’t sit well with me at all..

Game we should win but to be honest it would not come as a major shock if we drew or even lost this one.....Saints a good outfit and manager. Keep the run going you BLUEBOYS and lets see if we can keep winning, winning, winning.......

My train arrives in time for a few pints in Yates before going to the ground - I guess that will be a main meeting place for CITY fans?

Owe them one for the dross earlier in the season…

3-0, El cid to boss the game, couple for Foden

El Cid? Which Spanish player are you referring to? My guess is Rodri but not sure...just realised that with Merlin & Torres gone, Rodri appears to be the only regular left unless you count Laporte as being Spanish.

Ye they did. But a reduced capacity as city took the whole of the North Stand for home fans
We actually got fined by the league
Saints claimed they could have filled their allocation as they were going to the fa cup final the week after

Irony was that after moaning about the reduced allocation they couldn’t even sell that.

 

[Zin 'messiah' Zimmer]

Indeed Rodders

El Cid was born Rodrigo
