Lanterne Rouge Posted January 23, 2022 Report Share Posted January 23, 2022 During the game all bets are off IMO - with exceptions though. Wilbs and Benik being two cases in point. Both of those reactions showed how classy City fans can be and made me proud. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loved it when Wilbs came on as a sub for Bolton at the gate and got booked and the home fans booed the ref 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swede Posted January 23, 2022 Report Share Posted January 23, 2022 Flint was an icon here and had cult status, much more than any other player in that double winning squad. When he came back the first time with Boro I think he underestimated the impact he had on all of us as a player. I didn't think he handled it that well then and he certainly didn't yesterday. He won trophies with us and scored at Wembley. He should have stood on the half way line and clapped the same way as Marlon did. Respect works both ways. Afobe and Wilbs he isn't which is such a shame considering all of the wonderful memories he gave us as fans. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had 52% of possession and 58% of the territory. They dominated the ball for the majority Something entirely different to dominating the game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southport Red Posted January 23, 2022 Report Share Posted January 23, 2022 6 hours ago, Dr Balls said: I agree that this isn’t “we must have Pack back” but if he were available on a free and depending on who else was available within our (not likely to be very big) budget this summer, a midfielder with 7 seasons experience at this level, who rarely seems to get injured, who also lives locally and obviously still likes the club, would at least be worth a look. I also think that his manner and professionalism would suit Pearson’s person requirements but it’s really up to Nige as to who he wants and why. It reminds me of the re-sign Cole Skuse campaign on here when he was at Ipswich. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think 3-2 flattered them, it's a shame we conceded that late goal as I though 3-1 was probably a more accurate reflection of the game as a whole. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohhhshauntaylor Posted January 23, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2022 My point on his being OOC in the summer was more to highlight the potential. we have no real £££. Chances are King, Bakinson, Morton all depart. I don’t think Pack is the man for the future, but on a free, with great experience, a good injury record (even working with Andy Rolls) and being local- we could do a lot worse than having him as back up to James.

Looked better than he was because he had Korey Smith along side him. Perhaps you’d like to ask Pep Guardiola what he thought of Marlon when he played for us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best managers get things wrong "It was important to me to leave an organisation in the strongest possible shape and I believe I have done so," Sir Alex said that when he retired from man utd manager...... How's that gone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
