Loosey Boy

Posted the same earlier on the Millwall allocation thread - looks like we’ve had a few more allocated

Was chatting to a Rotherham fan on the train last night on my way back - they left with 20 mins to go as they were so poor……

Bournemouth press reporting that they will sign some new players this week - sense this could be the week where AS future is known - let’s hope he’s in our midfield at Millwall on Saturday ?

Let’s be honest, it was never likely to be a thrills and spills type of game - Preston at home never is……..PNE are always a well drilled, workmanlike team who look to frustrate their opponents…. Having said that, we didn’t play well, looked a tad disjointed - there’s always the danger that this happens on match day one. As many others have said, midfield was where we struggled the most - we definitely lacked Scott’s creativity - if he does go, I’d hope that we replace him (I’m sure we will). Let’s hope that next Sat, our MF is James, Knight and Scott ? Lets also remember that whilst it was the same for both teams, the conditions were hardly conducive to a decent game of football (as referenced by Bell in his post-match interview) On to next Sat against another seasoned, well drilled team at The Den ? COYRs

Have we been given more tickets? Late last week, there were less than 20 left and then yesterday, there was over 100 available.

Think he will play against Oxford on Weds as he’s training again

This time last season after one game (make that two), we had nil points! At least this season, we are off and running after our first game ? Not great today but….in years gone by, we lose that game…..

Agreed - no issues - Digital ST worked as hoped/planned ?

Surprised City haven’t maximised this opportunity to be honest - could have sold another 1,500 homes tickets

What an absolutely brilliant read and insight…….so want him to succeed with us….we are very lucky to have him. Come on City, let’s “crack the code” this season

Love the Barnsley fans view that they should look to play the game at Ashton Gate - as if that would ever happen ?

I hope he does…..we certainly go into this season with a much better, balanced squad. COYRs

Working again now - looks like less than 500 tickets left for City ?

Per tonight’s Sound of the City, Nige’s view is that based on how good Scott has been in pre-season is that he’s now worth £30m ?

Given where this rumour comes from (Givemesport), feels like a re-hash of previous rumours over the past few weeks, since their 2nd bid was rejected. Ever since then, all the other rumours suggest that Wolves have FFP concerns still and so can’t afford Alex. As things stand, can’t see him going there….

Looks like it will be pretty good turnout in the City stands but PNE look like bringing less than 1k - expect a crowd of between 21k and 22k

Do you mean you’d play Conway up front, rather than Cornick?

Against a ‘nasty’ PNE, I’d go with the experience of Wells over TC Bring TC on to cause havoc with his pace in 2nd half…..

Looks like PNE played a strong team too

I would hope that any revised contract would lead to an extended term, even if only for 12 months. There’s got to be a benefit to City with this too. I would also hope that any buy out clause would be at the current £25m level….. Having said all this, still expect him to have left by 1st September…..

Just checked and you can still book trains between London Bridge and S Bermondsey before and after the game - there’s no indication of industrial action

This has got to be a joke - 2 hours before and 2 hours after the game…..how convenient! Just over two weeks before the game too when pretty much everyone will have booked their trains! Me included ? Be interesting to see the Mets plans for this in the lead up to the game……hopefully, be some further comms on the coming days……

I’ve got a code - gladly provide and so please DM me

Be good to know why McCrorie wasn’t involved in either game today

How good was that run to win the pen! ? His first touch and finish for his 2nd goal was outstanding too…..
