Training Today 19th March

[Neil McNab's Tash]

Brief report lads, all present and correct.

Came out at 11 after the press conference, split into 2 groups and did the usual 1 touch circles.

Tevez, Bellers, Barry and Toure all sat out the session after, this was a 3 touch short sided game which was played on a really small pitch, normal width but the goals were on the edge of the 18 yard box and the outside edge of the centre circle in the same half. Zab, got clattered by Ade and Micah, who decided to nut a post at one point and got nailed by RSC in another tussle.

No injury news, all present and correct.

The Doc was again working on his ball skills, but i can't see the progress that my colleague DH has mentioned, his second touch is still a tackle!

The session finished around 12 as they we all going to Eastlands to get involved in a Sport Relief charity run this afternoon.

OMG you dont know who the doc is?? hahahaha

me neither

 

[Tricky_Trev]

At the risk of sounding like a fool, does he not mean the club doctor? Maybe he came out for a little kick about with the lads? Or maybe he's playing left back against Fulham? I've never heard of a city player being nicknamed "the doc" before, but having said that, i don't go to watch the training sessions everyday, so i'm sure there are plenty of nicknames i'm not aware of!

Working on playing with the ball, second touch still a tackle, a ridiculous nickname... has to be de Jong!

I was thinking Onouha. In fact, I'm sure I've heard Ned being reffered to as "Doc" somewhere.

 

[Bojinov The Bull]

Im just going to hazard a guess.....the doctor??

 

[Wrighty Wrexham]

Ned is 'Chief' isn't he?

 

[Bojinov The Bull]

I thought De Jong was 'Crazy Ass Killa'

 

[Wrighty Wrexham]

So it seems you haven't been much notice of the training reports as the doc has featured in quite a few.Shame on you all.

Yes it it the club/team's doctor who isn't exactly blessed with football skills but occasionally tries keep ups or other simple ball skills.

Thanks NLF, it seems that some of the lads don't take all that you write in!

Sorry if this is a letdown - but the Doc is just short for the Doctor(club) - his ball skills ain't great - but he's pretty nifty with a bandage tho - and I should know lol
