It's his personal choice to follow what the club are advising. The club state: "We encourage you to use face coverings when moving around internal areas. Feel free to wear face coverings in your seat" 1 Quote Link to comment

Personally I would. COYR Quote Link to comment

Cider_boy Posted August 7, 2021 Report Share Posted August 7, 2021 Going for 2-0 today. Hopefully, as a newly promoted side it will take Blackpool a few games to get up to speed, it can be a big step up from L1 for some. I'd forgotten how much my mood an a Saturday evening depends on the result. Several games before the end of last season it stopped happening, when our loss was almost a foregone conclusion, but we weren't going to go down. But now there is the hope again, please City, don't crush it today! Quote Link to comment
Sturny Posted August 7, 2021 Report Share Posted August 7, 2021 2-1 Wiemann and Wells Quote Link to comment
Swede Posted August 7, 2021 Report Share Posted August 7, 2021 If there was but one positive from the debacle that was last season it's that expectations will be cosiderably lowered. There are no easy games in this league and we have to compete. Now with a proper manager on board and a lot o the dead wood cleared we should see the start of the turnaround. 2:0 City. Martin & Wells. 1 Quote Link to comment

wendyredredrobin Posted August 7, 2021 Report Share Posted August 7, 2021 Teams announced in a few minutes. I have to say that I don't have a clue as to what the starting 11 is likely to be or the formation, so the teamsheet will be an interesting one. Quote Link to comment

For some reason, I am expecting the friendlies to be a bit of a red herring and that the formation and team we use in the first game is one we will have been using in training but not in matches. This could, of course, be me talking nonsense. 1 Quote Link to comment

WolfOfWestStreet Posted August 7, 2021 Report Share Posted August 7, 2021 1 hour ago, Abraham Romanovich said: Have I missed something here, our Hungarian midfield maestro who played against France, Germany and Portugal and performed very well, is not considered for the starting X1 or even on the bench. If that is correct the only conclusion one can make assuming his fitness, is that he will soon be on his way in the very near future. Every cloud and all that so if Nagy leaves we can expect a new signing fairly soon. Maestro's a reach but fair point Quote Link to comment

He had to force his way in last year and did so. I would have picked him but the fact is we were not good enough in midfield last season so understand the rationale for three new faces there. Weirdly, given our limited transfer business, Bentley and Vyner are the only two players starting that were regularly playing in our abysmal second half of last season. Shows how bad our injury crisis was that five starters are players at the club last season who Pearson could barely work with. Quote Link to comment
old_eastender Posted August 7, 2021 Report Share Posted August 7, 2021 With no Wells starting, worried about where the goals are coming from (COD has dismal scoring record), and Martin has looked sluggish in pre-season games... but who knows. 3 Quote Link to comment
