  1. There’s too much football. Full stop. There is no longer the exotic element of unknown players from far off climes dazzling at the tournament. Most of the world’s best players are in the Prem or the top divisions in Europe. It’s become a borefest.
  2. When did he get ‘ first team experience ‘ or have I missed something ?
  3. Not really a Manning fan are you WSM?
  4. He’s mastering the art of disappearing completely.
  5. Especially if he is here for Manning.
  6. Then we sign the Synt and he does an O’Dowda.
  7. Rightly or wrongly SS never did the business for us and not many were crying in their Bovril when he was sold.
  8. Definitely training there. He looks like Benerous.
  9. Wasn’t there talk of 4 million quid for Pack? Most people thought it was an unbelievable offer that was much too good to turn down added to the diminishing returns on the player’s effectiveness.
  10. It must be terrible , lacking quality in your back box , just ask Irene .
  11. As I have written previously, IMHO, this being City, the coach will be supported with shiny new players in the summer, a whole preseason to get his methods across to the players and then the same old shite. He will probably not be here for next season’s January transfer window. The people at the helm thought they could improve the results with a bloke who has done nothing concrete in his career so far and is supposed to tell players like King and James how to play the game ? It says a lot when LM declared that the win against West Ham was the best of his career so far. #tinpot. Manning was on a hiding to nothing from the outset. If we genuinely wanted top six then we bring in a top six coach not an unproven rookie. We also bring in players of the caliber ,no disrespect to the youngsters signed who are clearly here to grow with the club and Uncle Steve’s nest egg. The players would have run through brick walls for the staff deemed not good enough by our esteemed owner. I don’t see that anymore. I am thoroughly disenchanted with the club at the moment.
  12. Is that similar to the common pangolin ?
  13. Luckily we have a respected coach who can get them up and firing for every match and not just the glamour, shop window, matches on telly.
  14. Hang on, he was contracted to Oxford so we would have had to pay compensation to them and improve the wages that Manning and his staff were on so not like employing an out of work guy. Easy? Easier than trying to persuade someone with an established record of success to come here I am certain.
  15. Those of us blinded by the success of the club sense what is going to happen. The owners will stand by Manning , spending money on the players he wants in the summer. He will have a full preseason to work with them followed by more of the same old shite that we get served up season after season and we will change coach before Christmas probably bringing in Naismith as the new head coach. Rinse and repeat.
