Chatting with my lad midweek he and his partner when to the Nutmeg an Indian restaurant in Clifton Village. He said it was excellent with a great variety of set menu’s to select from.

We’re thinking of going there ourselves - has anyone else been there?

Yes Nutmeg is awesome!

Start in the whetherspoons at the bottom of North St and work your way up through the pubs until you get to the ground

Plenty of places for beers and food before and after the game.

I think he may go with a back 4 with Tanner, McCrorie either/ Or RB / RCB and Roberts and Pring same the other side.

We’ll soon find out. I would like to see JKL get an opportunity though.

No Dickie or Vyner today according to the Evening Post Twitter page….

Not ideal at all but fortunately we have full backs who can play centre half so hopefully we’ll be ok. 

The market is a joke. Been driving for nearly 20 years. No points . Maximum no claims discount and my yearly premium went up £400. Go figure.

So I’m assuming someone with a perfectly legal firestick will still be able to watch all the games? 

Yes for sure

Vyner and Dickie have become a very decent CB combination, the best pairing at City for several seasons. Based on that it’s no surprise that Vyner gets into many posters top 5.

Yep and I understand why he would do, just not for me based on the reasons above. I also think Tanner is a better defender.

Surprised so many are putting Vyner in their top 5 - he is making so many mistakes especially recently, giving the ball away in our area (think Vardy and the Blackburn miss last night).

He certainly has good moments ie the goal saving tackle but he also makes a risky - uncontrolled - pass most games!

Agreed. That’s why he wasn’t in my top 5. Has still been a big part of what our defence has achieved this season . Cut out the (at least 1 per game) misplaced Hollywood hospital passes and he makes my top 5.

1) Dickie

2) Max

3) Knight

4) Tanner

5) James

Yeah, didn't realise you've still got Huddersfield and Stoke to play, you're going to have a big say in this relegation battle.

Can't pretend I'm confident about the Stoke game but it's certainly a huge game for both sides.

Huddersfield v Birmingham in the penultimate game of the season, I feel pretty confident at least one of those two are going now.

Hope we can do the both of them and you can win a few. Proper club Wednesday

It's all too bloody stressful.

We could do you another favour on Saturday as well. You confident of getting a result Vs Stoke?

Went straight down the tunnel at full time

I agree. 
I think in recent weeks Mehmeti has been our most influential player. 
Of course, not everything he tries will come off, but that’s the life of a winger - you are tasked with being positive and trying to create/score. 
He’s had a number of involvements in goals (not assists and goals but also in build up to chances and goals). He carries a threat running with the ball and allows us to get ‘up the field’. 
He’s a threat. It won’t always come off, but when it’s does it’s great. 
I’d much rather have a winger like him, who tries things but often fails, than a winger who doesn’t try anything and just checks back to the full back all the time. 
I believe in Mehmeti. I’m sticking by him. 

Well said.

I think at the time they may have been referring to Sykes?

Well I hope they’re both ok.

The Evil Post suggested he had cramp

Thanks. I was half watching and half doing something else and heard that he “hurt himself” playing a pass so wasn’t sure if his quad went again. 

Hope Twine will be ok and the sub was just precautionary..

Thanks but I can’t be arsed - too fiddly. I’ll tune into RB as usual.

Oh cmon!

I thought of that but it’s not just my phone tho. I have an I-watch and an iPad - alerts come up on them as well.

Then change the notification settings on each individual device buddy

I take it no red button Sky ?

Firestick , £50 a year. Works out to around £1 a game if you include cup games.

The answer is very simple. I would choose the one who wants to stay.

Can someone who has access to the piercy chap from the post please request he asks LM at the next presser whether he plans on keeping Matty James beyond this season considering how integral he is to how we play. If not , no worries. Cheers 

Very good at LCB today. I think he’ll be a real star there if LM persists with that sort of formation. Another gem unearthed.

I like MJ, but certainly don’t buy into the hype in this thread. 

Keeps the ball moving, granted. But I don’t see enough of him playing the incisive or “killer” pass.
 

Favours the safe option far too much for me (though you could argue that’s the tactics we set up with I suppose also). 
 

His role in the team isn’t to be the one looking to make “the killer pass” thought, is it? 

If you’re unable to see what MJ role is and what he brings to the team I dunno what to say

I know Dickie is probably cream of the crop regarding POTY but Max has to be in the conversation.
