Tiree Posted January 26, 2019 Report Share Posted January 26, 2019 No not the same old, tedious thread of a earlier this season when some so called supporters said our winning was boring, I refer to Man City. It doesn't matter which of the 4 comps they play in, some lifelong Man City fans say the only thing left of real interest is to guess their 'goals scored' . Some got both Burton games wrong, 9 then just 1, but today's 5 v Burnley was probably even - money with the bookies! Would we get bored with winning every match where the only entertainment was the sweepstake on how many goals we score? Or are we getting that way?

Negan Posted January 26, 2019 Report Share Posted January 26, 2019 No I'd be quite happy watching us win every game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ralphindevon Posted January 26, 2019 Report Share Posted January 26, 2019 It doesn't seem that long ago Man City were in the 3rd tier, so certainly for the older fans I'm sure it isn't at all boring Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm good mates with a couple of staunch MCFC fans and I can assure you they find it anything but boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fpcity Posted January 26, 2019 Report Share Posted January 26, 2019 I kind of agree. I find Barcelona boring to watch with the tippy tappy football which Pep has introduced in the past 10 years. Maybe it's because I grew up watching 90's, early 2000's football which seemed more exciting with teams like Man Utd, arsenal, Chelsea playing fast attacking powerful football down the wings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Offside Posted January 26, 2019 Report Share Posted January 26, 2019 I imagine many of their fans are still pinching themselves after spending so long in the shadow of Man Utd and, in the not too distant past, suffering the ignominy of relegation to the 3rd tier and having to play against the likes of the fewers. They also still have the aim of winning the Champions’ League and probably also matching other achievements like the treble. I don’t think I’d be bored, although I know what the OP means - today’s game (and many of their matches) must feel like a formality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slacker Posted January 26, 2019 Report Share Posted January 26, 2019 Well I loved league one under Cotts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
INCRED Posted January 26, 2019 Report Share Posted January 26, 2019 It's boring because the teams they play against don't give it a go and put them under pressure very much like we did in the cup games. Palace have had a go and got a result. Better than sitting back and rolling over to inevitable defeat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cider-manc Posted January 26, 2019 Report Share Posted January 26, 2019 I went to this game today and i will say.... It was really boring. No atmosphere at all. It was like being at a golf tournament where the crowd politely clap good play. They were just waiting to score... And after they scored most seemed to lose interest as they knew it was done deal. On top of that i was sat next to a guy complaining they were giving away possession too much in a game where they were having 85% possession. They don't half play Brilliant football mind.
