Can we forget what previous managers did or didn’t do? Irrelevant - certainly in this instance.

The point is that it’s surely not asking too much of a manager to acknowledge those who’ve travelled a long way to support the team. He never does it. Even place like Middlesbrough where it’s a hell of a long way and the away end isn’t full of morons. 

perhaps he is shy dave

I was wondering about the coaches and assistants during the last game. There seemed to be a lot of people on the bench talking. Too many chefs and all that. It was a bit crowded and maybe Simmo felt his role was changed after Fleming arrived. Main thing is his health , and wellbeing. He will end up at Ipswich tomorrow. 

My thoughts exactly, all on the GRAVY train !!

Nice One COYR

On Saturday with plenty of time to think, due to getting stuffed, I wonder how we can continue to give visiting teams such a great time.

Our singing section is tucked in a corner with virtually no noise until the game starts. Such a limited range of songs and few that others can understand and join in with. We sing the Dasilva song whether is is good or bad because its one of the few that we have.

At the other end !!. We give them a full end behind a goal. Why don't the away fans at the gate get tucked into a top corner somewhere like we do?

I started watching City in 1970. The East End then has some pride and character. The song leaders where at the back in the middle and the singing spread out wide to both sides. The noise then would put our current volume to shame. We had a song for each player which didn't need to be a musical master piece. Everyone could hear it and join in. We had real hostility when one of ours was wronged.

We briefly heard the far end of the Dolman on Saturday but it soon died out.

For Goodness sake. Lets move the singing section to the middle of the East End. Get some simple and decent songs and belt them out and finally lets move the away fans as far away from the pitch as we can.

Lets also turn the pre match music down so that at least the fans can be heard.

Come on, the team needs help and the noise and encouragement just has to be better

 

Agree with that

First game today due to ilness since the famous Fulham game last Feb. I'll tell you, waiting for an ENT appointment in Somerset is longer than waiting for a City home win 

always good to read @Olé 's write up of the match, not being there I can only go on his regular good reports

Is it your contention that with all the intense practice required you could have been as good as Messi?

I used to practice to be as good as Alec Eisenstrager but could not get the accent right

I posted my honest opinion on Jacki. GrahamC summed him up far better than I did.

Dont worry RR, in ten years time, the kids who are 8 now will be frothing about another wonder we had - Lee Tomlin ( and for what it's worth I was a big Tomlin fan but even I couldn't help the problems he had with LJ)

Good addition to the back room, seems like a match for NP as assistant COYR

RIP Fellow Red as they said 66 is no age, but this evil disease has no care about that

Got to be Wigan - finest pies in the EFL

Give him time. He will build a squad, an environment and and backroom to be proud of. There'll be bumps in the road and a few poor performances but stick with it. 

Yours is the result I look for first when our matches finish and it gives me a massive sense of joy when you win.

All the best.

Thanks for the re-assurance KF, for years we have waited the 'right' manager. I believe we have a true pro at the helm now and for the fans to give him time, my generation gave Alan Dicks time and we were rewarded well, even though for a few short years.

Steve, do you think you will ever see Premier League FOOTBALL at AG, in your lifetime?

And be honest...

 

NO

Having briefly worked for this bloke I can think of more appropriate words to describe him. 
 

 

Major,when I lived in Spain I believe he was an Estate Agent or similar in the Marbella area. Nuff said !

Looking more positive for me, it will take time but at least we have a real skipper at the helm.
