I think the Rangnick era has parallels to our Phil Neil era, crap.

"Phil Neal managed City through ten League games, but only two (West Bromwich Albion & Bradford City, both 3-2) ended in victory. At one point, with supporters showing dissatisfaction at performances on the pitch Neal admitted: “They say Steve Coppell showed courage to leave. It takes more courage to stay!”

I'm expecting United to get a point at Liverpool.

Especially so, after being humiliated at home.

I'll go as far as to say City will be six points clear before Everton go to Klanfield.

I think you should temper expectations. There’s nothing more vulnerable to City and Liverpool than a team that’s trying to press but isn’t very good at it. That’s when you get massively one sided fixtures like our destruction of United or the Leeds 7-0.

Rangnick won’t change his tactics and Liverpool will pick them off like fish in a barrel IMO.

Just been made aware of this new fan movement, now correct me if I wrong, but Pheonix??? It's and eagle and also once we adopted it the beswick buzzard ;-)





Really don't get why they keep starting fans groups when they are 7th and potentially gonna get a european place, it isn't like they are in oldhams position or derbys.

If it is a glazers out group then understandable that they are pissed off with the swamp falling to bits and the club heavilly in debt then fair fucks to them, but if it is because (and I suspect so) they are not top anymore well..
They have had 3 decent managers and at best 30 years where they were top dogs, they really need to get over themselves on this, the statement says return to their traditions, well their traditions are to be mid table.with the odd cup or title so...

What a brilliant way to bring the fans together, start yet another protest group.
They are fast becoming the Peoples Front of Judea and all the many other factions.

I think in fairness to Neal he wasn't actively recruited to the role as some sort of 'Godfather of football coaching' as Wreck-It apparently was.. He also didn't try to blag some kind of nebulous consulting gig afterwards.

Finally, whilst his little spell in charge wasn't exactly stellar, in terms of £'s jizzed up the wall vs. outcomes I don't think his couple of months are comparable to the train wreck that our numpty neighbours have entertainingly created.
