Tbf the club should probably take Wayne to task. This all came about years ago, why's he suddenly raking up old history again.... Well I know the answer to get people to listen to his dull as dishwater podcast.
Great, great player all the charisma of a flannel.

Be interesting how the narrative pans out next week or so. I've already steeled myself for a couple of narrow defeats maybe a battling point in one of the two upcoming games. Our squad is going to be so stretched. As long as the effort is there and we don't get pumped there's no need to lose it.

Also worth noting the impact it'll have on younger blues. Now we've moved and the general gloom around the club has lifted both my lads are hounding me like mad to go every opportunity we can. Moving with the times is key for that generation to make their own memories and history 💪

The whole thing was incredulous. Never seen anything like it before, not in an allegedly apolitical sporting environment. The levels of cronyism and sycophancy was breathtaking. I didn't think it could stoop much lower than Qatar. Ground work has been set for this to be the Munich Olympics V2.0.

I couldn't take my eyes of that shite last night. It was incredulous the amount of sycophancy on show for that big fat sweaty ugly retarded criminal (president).
It's one of the most bizarre two hours of TV I've ever witnessed

It'll depend on whose the highest bidder once castore deal expires but I'd have Hummel back. I don't see us ever getting the three stripes with that lot across the park which is a shame. My other choice would be puma they do some nice stuff for city 👍

7 which leaves us on 28 points at the turn, 11 points better than last year. Will take that. Win Saturday, point off the arse at home, nowt at Chelsea. Win one, lose one of the games either side of Xmas day.

Bold! that centre midfield very thread bare and lightweight in terms of physicality and ball winning.
Take a point now.

Is Harrison actually a number 6/Ball winning midfielder? In my head I had him as slightly more advanced? One things for certain though these players certainly know how to kill a good vibe. Gary speed bench, toffee lady back, Xmas tree up in the plaza, giant pigs in blankets. 1-4 FFS 🤦♂️😂

You won't be able to get near that tomorrow unless your in early as it'll be a very popular photo/selfie 😂

Kinell that sounds boss, was gonna eat elsewhere tomorrow but this might tempt me in early with the lad. Guinness and a giant pig in blanket sounds just the ticket before giving the horse punchers a good kicking 💪

No worries, will keep my eyes peeled. I'm a non ST holder but local so go a few games and would rather the kids pester me for something decent rather than utter tat 👌😂

Having had a go of a drone once or twice with mixed results there's no way a mere mortal like me could fly that through the inside of the stadium without a) smashing the drone Into a million pieces and b) damaging the decor of our lovely shiny new stadium 😂🤯

Any plans for a pop shop maybe one match day or do the numbers not work? There's a place in the ten streets and frankly by comparison the gear is shite.

Indeed. I must admit when the squads came out I thought if we can dig in there's not much on the bench👍 I don't watch you week on week out but it feels like a right wing back as good as dorgu is needed, also Bruno Casimeiro needs breaking up as a two. Not enough power and pace, maybe even height.

Plagueball shouts are a bit harsh given the context. Think Amorim is a bit of a tactical outlier atm. Majority of the PL have gone more direct and physical. It's not a method he's comfortable with, being totally wedded to that daft formation and tika taka. Feels like you need to buy in some power 👍
