I'm not quite 55 yet although not far off! So any City fan (I'm a season ticket holder myself) is welcome then really? Like a lot of parents I am off this week with the school holidays and can make it hence the question. Given it is the school holidays there might be a really good attendance for this.

I guess that if you retired aged 48 like a couple of former coppers I know you’d meet the criteria. Guests are welcome but they’d pay a few more quid for the lunch and obviously the Senior Reds need to know in advance to allow for the numbers.

Not at all but it’s better to go along with someone you know. That way it’s easier to find a table. The first time I went along with a mate of mine (sadly no long with us) and we sat with a bunch of his mates who he’d known for years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid in the Riot Posted August 15, 2019 Report Share Posted August 15, 2019 Be interested to know what LJ says about the Nketiah deal, what happened etc and whether the Leeds move was the player's or club's decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbored Posted August 15, 2019 Report Share Posted August 15, 2019 As usual LJ kept us all spellbound with his vernacular. He’s such an articulate and fascinating guy, I could listen to him all day. Webster - sees his departure as a great loss to the club and losing a player of such quality can have a demoralising effect on the squad. He and MA had tried to bring in one of two other CBs but the deals fell through. He sees this as an opportunity for TM to ‘step up’ particularly as Bailey Wright is now missing with a thigh injury. Could be out a few weeks. Not good news for Dasilva either. His injury is worse than first thought and will be out for several months. He was asked about Vyner but said that Zac had not impressed much last season at Rotherham and felt that he needed more competitive football - hence his loan to Aberdeen. City have a recall option In January but now appreciates the loan as a ‘mistake’ - hindsight is a wonderful thing...... He was asked about Messengo and said it was thru contacts in France that City got involved. When he signed for us both Leicester and Chelsea wanted to know how we got him.....that blows the cons theory out of the water.... I asked him about Citys ‘style’ and asked him to explain to us what it is and wow! what a question.......He must have chatted for 10mins about it and i’ll freely admit he lost me after a few mins. Shame Spudski wasn’t there........Much of it was about box to box and how he’s happy with that but we fall short around the opposition box. All fascinating stuff............ He was also asked about a tall centre forward and he said that again City had been after a couple but the deals had collapsed. Brian Tinnion - says the article was ‘click bait’ and essentially po-pooed it. Saying it wasn’t accurate and that he and BT work closely together but wouldn’t be surprised if PL clubs were after him as he does such a good job. LJ was great value today. We all agreed just how impressive he was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
