Re: other matches this weekend

There was a good discussion on here at the weekend about teams lying down for city barely trying a leg at giving them a game. Incredible quotes from corpse Moyes about their game this weekend - "It would be difficult stopping their Under 14's winning the title, I think!" "I've said t...

Re: Mikel Arteta, success or failure? - Merged thread.

About time Arteta was given a new long-term contract IMO. He thoroughly deserves it for what he's done especially over the last few seasons. The culture at the club is back to what it used to be, all the players respect him and he is starting to bring in players with untapped potential that are now...

Re: Mikel Arteta, success or failure? - Merged thread.

Lads, this thread has become absolutely cringe inducing. :oops: :oops: Can people please stop acting like scum and wet sham fans, posting stats as if they are the equivalent of trophies? It's embarrassing. Everyone is entitled to their opinion but let's not resort to that low level of justification...

Re: other matches this weekend

Well, the scousers did their bit in all fairness and although it's highly unlikely, we've just got to hope that the scum don't lose tonight. I'm sure that we all expect them to get comfortably beaten, but stranger things have happened. As good as City are, they're still human and they'll be feeling ...

Re: Manure A Sun May 12th KO 430pm

I agree, some of the negativity is way over the top at times but I think it stems from the fact that it has been a great season on reflection, and yet it’s likely we’ll just fail by just a couple of points. (Newcastle away :banghead: ) However, there are so many positives to take at the moment, and...

Re: other matches this weekend

I've been thinking about that recently IW8. There seems to be an overriding lack of animosity towards City, almost an acceptance that they're in a league of their own and therefore entitled to win the league and everything else in fact. The one team with the obvious historic rivalry is Utd, but even...

Re: Manure A Sun May 12th KO 430pm

My fear is we have been light on goals in the run in. That brain fart from Raya vs Spurs, plus not putting another one or two past United has given an opportunity for City to tonk a woeful West Ham while we toil against Everton. Seriously. If City draw with Spurs this is still not over. City will t...

Re: Manure A Sun May 12th KO 430pm

I think we can be a bit hard on Saka. The guy is amazing and it's easy to lose our shit when he has an off day. He seems to be brilliant or total pants, there's not an 'ok' level to him really. I was certainly shouting for him to be subbed on the hour yesterday, he had an awful game......but let's ...

Re: other matches this weekend

We seriously need Liverpool to avoid defeat tonight so that the scum still have a chance of 4th place and have to give it their best shot against City. They're apparently up against it financially and desperately need CL money, but they know that a draw or win against City puts us in a position to w...

Re: Manure A Sun May 12th KO 430pm

Poor performance, to say the least, but got the 3 points, which I suppose is all that matters. Utd have been dreadful all season, but we played a shadow team yesterday and made very heavy work of it. If ever there was evidence that Partey ought to have gone last summer, then that was it, although th...

Re: Bournemouth H Sat 3rd May KO 1230

Honestly we should be winning this fairly comfortably - I'm going for a 3-1 win The manure game is the one that worries me - I have spent most of the last two seasons rubbishing them that sods law suggests fate might end up giving me a kick in the bollix :roll: This is what I said above.

Re: Forum Issues - Crap Basically

Anyhow, had a chat with Rob last night and there is nothing at the forum end that is causing this intermittent slow loading. I find it comes and goes every few weeks. It can be fine for weeks on end and then one or two days it'll just slow down badly. It could be any number of things, but one thing...

Re: Mikel Arteta, success or failure? - Merged thread.

Not worried about LB, or the defence in general. I’m not blown away by our full backs, but hopefully Timber will establish himself and we need to spend big money elsewhere. I’d go after a better keeper than we have and I’d definitely give Kelleher a shot, but it’s gonna be Raya as we all know. The t...
