  1. I’m in Wembley and have moved to red wine. One Magners was enough
  2. Careful that’s subversively rational
  3. No signs at all? To start with we kept the ball more which I think was overdue if we were going to progress as a team. Watford away, West Ham, Forest away. Then the Southampton game, 4 games ago, was the best performance by a City team I’ve seen in a good while, regardless of how we played tactically and similarities to NPs. Certainly the most convincing performance against an ex Prem team given our record has been appalling against them in recent times. Look last few games are concerning, I’m not glossing over the big issues we have. I just don’t think it’s been nothing but decline since he took over .
  4. Context was a bit different though - Tinnion had a year and a bit of mediocre results. Manning has had 5? Months and had some signs of progress at least, albeit others where we’ve gone backwards. That said I do remember saying to my wife that I hoped we’d get humiliated once it was clear we were going to lose that Swansea game, as it might force hands. Sure enough…..
  5. Flashback to another Swansea game involving Tinnion….
  6. Lost the players trust? Well that’s not what James thinks in the article: For all the conspiracy theories about lost dressing rooms and a disenchanted squad, as we understand that is abundantly not true. edit -Apols previous post says much the same
  7. Went to an Exeter Torquay game years ago and the home fans response to Torquay was effectively we don’t care enough to hate you! Defo Argyle Exeter over everything.
  8. Think we’re forgetting just how bad the England team was pre Bazball….
  9. See also those daft across the nose things in the 90s
  10. With that tache he Reminds me of a ww2 fighter pilot who forgot to Breelcream
  11. It’s a squad game. Don’t think he was ever bought as a replacement.
  12. Hopefully the unbelievers will soon be convinced
  13. Loved him to bits but Cole, Akinbiyi, Abraham even Kodja scored more goals at Championship level for us and surely were simply better players?
  14. Life’s rich tapestry / everyone’s entitled to their opinion. No really they are. But the 27 likes and rising for the post suggest to me the silent majority are nodding sagely at their screens once again.
  15. I’m not convinced he’s some sort of number 10; he’s not super creative or a regular scorer. But a bit deeper and he’s a monster.
  16. MM love your optimism - see also the ‘best we’ve ever played’ thread. But I think there’s the tiniest chance of rose tinted glasses on both threads
  17. Watching ‘online’ and he was immaculate. Including
  18. He actually does a bit of research, is articulate and doesn’t unnecessarily hype the merely good. Low bar but he easily clears it.
  19. Never confused. He is mind.
  20. Thought on a few occasions he looked very rusty but boy did I like the positive intent! Not knocking George to be clear.
