There’s a couple of random ones dotted about but I’ve already got one for me and my wife and you’re not allowed to buy more than 1 per person.

Mules or goats?

Sorry, goats.

They might join the protest and lie down in the road pretending to be traffic calming measures

A zebra pants crossing?

Chris Sutton on BBC Football predicts 4-1 to "the best team in the country and by far the best team in Manchester."

Micah?

For my mental health I so deeply, deeply want us to hammer the sh1t out of these barstewards on Sunday after the week we have had.

Come on City. CTID (which at this rate could be sooner rather than later).

Hippies adding to the likely travel chaos

IMO there’s nothing hippy about wanting your grandchildren to have a planet with some remaining wildlife, and a weather system that functions sufficient for some of mankind to remain on it.
It’s more a case of sensible people who believe the actual science vs the rulers of a capitalist system that requires ever greater use of carbon fuels to feed the growth it needs to keep it’s pyramid scheme ticking over.

Oh, and in the spirit of keeping this thread on track; I recon that we’re effectively adopting to a new style of play. So I think this break will have benefitted us.
We’ll be less clunky in this one, keep a grip the tempo of the game (so that it doesn’t descend to their kick & run level) and that we’ll give them a controlled footballing lesson.
2-0 to City and a display that makes that look a let off I hope.

 

[SWPISHOME]

HARK NOW HERE THE CITY SING.....

 

[waspish]

Rags have decent record at our place but I Think we will win because we have an out an out goal scorer which we haven’t when they have beaten us! We seem to make plenty of chances and they hit us on the break get 1 or two chances and score!


4-2

I disagree with the break part, I always think we look at our sharpest when we play a lot of games on the bounce, we tend to look more sluggish when we have a break for some reason

I agree wholeheartedly that us looking clunky after an international break been the general pattern down the years.

I just think that with us having a number of new players and now playing, what is to us, a radically different system after a short preseason, that we’ll have had a bit more time to read the new script, run the new scenarios through minds in mental preparation, reflect on what’s worked well so far and what’s not etc.

But don’t put money on it because I’m just guessing my best like all the other guessers on here ;-)

The Nordic Meat Shield is going to have a field day against Martinez the midget. I think he'll score eight headers.

 

[jimharri]

Nerves beginning to kick in today. I hate Derby days. And the fact that we'll be red hot favourites is irrelevant in that regard. Of all the teams I don't want to lose to (that's all of them), they're still top of the list, though the cultists have narrowed the gap considerably in the last 5 or 6 years. I just want Sunday to be over, with the three points safely pocketed.

Easier said than done, for me anyway. I'm a born worrier (not warrior, worrier)!

Its a derby anything can happen. Thats why they do my head in.

Exactly, how on earth did we lose at home to them 2-3 when leading comfortably? Almost as bad a bogey side as Tottenham. Please let us start on the front foot and score three without reply early doors.

Can't wait for work to finish today! Come on City!
