  1. Good news that. I think Arsenal play Spurs the weekend of the West Ham game so could see that being the 4:30 game with us getting the 2pm game.
  2. Anyone have any idea when the Fulham and West Ham games may be scheduled for. I could see Fulham being the classic 12:30 Saturday job.
  3. You know what, he may have been one of the worst there yesterday, but the thousands who sang their songs aren't much better.
  4. Blues are our dads, our mams, our siblings, our husbands/wives, our kids, our best mates etc. My dads a Blue, my mams a Red. They're both in their 90s and watch the derby games with another couple in their 90s who are Red and Blue. They despair at the way things have changed between the fans. The rivalry has gone toxic over the last twenty years, but the Mancs (both to be honest) and Chelsea are on a different level with nearly every club like Luton, Newcastle or Villa ready to sing the ditties in the name of banter. My mate clocked a lad on the Kop doing the Munich years ago and nearly everyone applauded him. The stewards just looked away because 99% of people realise that's not "banter". The decent Mancs need to speak up. Imagine that cunt is a policeman. What a fucking beaut. Words fail me.
  5. The one silver lining from losing to those shithouses is that City's schedule, even for such a huge squad is not going to be nice for them. We have some amount of top players coming back at the right time. Jota is going to be so important and will be the difference if he stays fit. We would have beaten both set of Mancs if he was playing - he would have had a hat trick today. Btw, as much as I'm gutted to lose today, if that game is played 100 times, we win 92-93 times imo. We were so wasteful and I don't believe we will be like that again. We let them off the hook at Anfield. Next time, hopefully is redemption with a capital R. The criticism I've seen of Harvey and others is wrong and unfair. Plenty of others didn't turn up today and not one of our lads should be getting abuse today. We're having a boss season and those lads have been a huge part of it.
  6. Haha good one about Newcastle! When they were going for the title with Keegan, I was gutted for them. Especially for that old boy who used to be at the games. They have a twattier fanbase now, but I guess that is across the board. To be fair, Everton were very good in the 60s.
  7. Everton is a much bigger club imo. They have turned into a bunch of small time losers and Newcastle may become another City down the line, but in terms of history, no comparison. Newcastle fans are nauseating twats. Imagine them, with any type of success.
  8. We have lads coming back at just the right time. It will be huge. All top players. We literally have come through a storm and the lads who stepped in have been incredible and shown they belong at this level. Fingers crossed a narky draw between them and we beat Brighton at the end of the month with a bit to spare. You would certainly feel that and Sheffield United are games to work the goal difference - I rate Brighton to be fair. 3 points over City with a much better goal difference would be brilliant and two points over Arsenal with the goal difference non-existant would be a great space going into the Mancs. The Euro draws for each team couldn't have been scripted better imo. Very tough games for Arsenal and City to navigate. We got a nice looking side of the draw. Btw, I agree about West Ham and Villa staying in Europe. An injury to a key player or two, or the simple fact of resting players for a semi-final could make all the difference. With Villa, they won't rest players unless they have top 4 (or5) boxed off so hopefully they do okay in the coming weeks.
  9. Maybe Atalanta/Sporting Lisbon or Benfica next round. Obviously decent enough team to be fair. Let West Ham get AC, Villareal or Leverkusen. Milan in Dublin would be nice. Proper European royalty final. Leverkusen as well would be nice.
  10. Freiburg would be nice enough in the next round I reckon. Yeah they aren't what they used to, but I think they could cause Arsenal a world of problems. Simeone and his gang of shithouses have nous and experience, especially at the business end of the Champions League. City would get through with a good bit to spare - they could smash them to be fair as you say.
