But for continued mirth; do we have to wait until August, or will they muck up a transfer during the Summer months?

Let’s hope they chase ( can’t think of his name ) that Peterborough striker again and bulls that up again

With Bird's contract are we entitled to any loan bonus now he has helped them get promotion?

Is it just me , didn’t think he was anything special from what I saw today , mind you didn’t that’s the only time I have seen him so perhaps others who have seen more of him can enlighten me

If that was pushing for the playoffs, someone left the handbrake on, it was still in gear and very uphill.

Great to finally have a manager who has a plan on the pitch. Last 10 matches have been promotion chasing quality, if only he’d come in last summer….

At least they have correctly identified where we need more quality - attack. 

Let's see who they bring in.

And bring them in early

Think Conway is underrated by many on here.

Easy to forget he's only 21.

Yes he should remember he’s only 21 , why not sign a contract stay here and improve , personally can’t see him going any higher than us and getting as many minutes as he does here , 

I suppose he could possibly go to a prem club and get better coaching but won’t get as many minutes

I won’t lose any sleep if that’s the case to be honest.

Personally think he’s ok but no better than that , Wants what his mate scotty got but I’m afraid different gulf in class , really needs to sign the contract get his head down and go for bigger things in 18 months , nowhere near anything special yet but has the qualities to improve

If a lion dominates a mouse is that something to celebrate?

The quality of the opposition, and their particular circumstances at the time we play them, always has to be to be taken into account. 

Try telling Leeds that , they only had relegation threatened qpr

I was surprised how few Tickets Leeds fans were given the top tier looked full but not exactly packed and only a couple of hundred in the bottom tier , loads of empty seats in the bottom tier , as we well know Leeds would deffo have sold every ticket they were given

Brighton have had an on the beach feel to them for a while and obviously Man City have been ruthless.

Mind you Brighton could have had a consolation penalty.

Our support Home.and Away this year, with the usual caveats of location at times applying, has been pretty good.

I would up pretty good to very good especially away , if we take 2,000 to Stoke that would be excellent - 

Dont forget if your going to Stoke 

Bristol 20 deg cent 

Stoke -1 deg cent

All but sold out now, too late for them to put any of the Atyeo on sale I'd imagine.

Let's hope as many ST holders turn up for this one, over 22k home fans after the inconsistent season we've had is very impressive!

Personally I think the support ( wether it be quiet or noisy at home ) has been pretty decent seeing the rather unpopular change of manager and the huge inconsistency in performances this season , as for away support think this season it has been superb I think if o remember correctly before Xmas we sold out at many of the games , also taking 9,000 to West Ham and 2,200 to Forest and not just turning up in numbered but making a right racket so well done to all those who travel away regularly , Wouldn’t surprise me if we take 1500 to Stoke for a nothing game aswell , for anyone who’s never been then before dress as if it’s deepest winter always bloody freezing when I’ve been there which is about 5 times

Man United spent roughly £90 million less on wages last season than City, so no, not exactly.

The money Man City have spent is the key factor behind their success, look at where the club was 20 years ago compared to where it is now. That rise is due to finances and very little else.

Of course, they've spent well (even if they've seemingly broken every rule in the book with FFP), but let's not pretend they'd be challenging if they didn't have the biggest budget in the league.

They may have posted profits, but they've also got over 100 charges against them for financial fair play, which is hardly a good look

Big crowd

Game we should win

End of the season

Wurzels afterwards

It's a guaranteed 0-0/0-1 match isn't it?

Yep you know your city like me ,

my first city match was along time ago ,1973

palace not won in 19 games come to Ashton gate - yep you guessed it 1-0 palace Alan Whittle for them

Rotherham and Stoke are two favourable fixtures in our race for 11th I agree!

Oh wait, wrong City...

On paper 4 points minimum for city - but as you say it’s city so probably 1 at best 

am I right in saying Rotherham haven’t won away all season - I’ll leave it there

Better rest Joe Williams for this one then and Pringy has a habit of collecting cards too.

Awarding a penalty every other game gives us a fighting chance of getting one too.

Our last ref was really good - gave us a last min (questionable) penalty and even did the washing up before she went home.

at a certain piece in your thread but I won’t say what bit , as I will get told off by the forum police

No one in your league will want to play you - properly at least. Prem oppo will be on lucrative pre season tours, or will demand a big fee, or send squad playets/u21s.

Decent L1 teams are probably the best we'll end up with.

What someone like promotion chasing Bristol Rovers

Crikey. I'm really looking forward to the end of this season. I can't even contemplate the thought of pre-season friendlies yet

I’m the same , look forward to the summer break —————- for 2 weeks then can’t wait for the season to start again

Do what? What would have impressed you in any manager having to take over a Pearson (basket) case 6 months ago? The summer will go well because the club (ie owners & senior, respected managers will back Liam) so you have no reason to have a bad feeling. And what the hell do you mean by regression? Since when, since Cotts or since Johnson? There has been zero regression since Pearson lef; the players are happier, the cup run, we beat or draw with top teams, we smash poor teams etc etc - sometimes the negativity of you (and others) posts is simply baffling. What regression can you possibly mean?

Was Pearson that bad in your eyes

Give it a crack two are clearly different Youngs arm was in justifiable natural position and hes really close to the ball with no time to react Bissaka was weird running round with his arms out like Jesus Christ!! 

Give it a crack ? Wtf does that mean , thought I was pretty streetwise but never heard that before 

With the upturn in results over the recent weeks and some slightly better displays ( much better yesterday ) are some fans starting to see a future under manning . 
I have always maintained under both managers with a fully fit squad ( which isn’t often with city ) there is a team in there somewhere - The consistency of performances is my biggest concern when good we’re more than decent but when we’re poor we’re piss poor
