How many more bookings can we afford to score again?

He has to wait until the second half starts.

And take Bristol Rob with him for a fag!

QPR are rock bottom of the table with confidence shattered after a humiliating defeat 1-7 defeat a few days ago

You're right, we should be confident City will give them an absolute stuffing.

What do you reckon the score will be tonight?

7 - 7?

You get 25m quid and put out that squad ... I really hope LJ knows something we don't 

Johnson gets paid that much?

Paterson will probably still get the blame if this goes wrong despite not starting. 

Paterson is this season's Pack/Maggers/a n other scapegoat.

On the plus side our discipline is alot better. Will Bolton be fined for their 6 bookings?

All aboard for another rollercoaster marathon season. Since I have just attended my own marriage, my first I hasten to add, i am excusing myself a long winded thread opening; many historical facts have been written of todays opponents and pretty much all other teams in this league so it is time to reflect on other equally interesting subject matters that should become apparent soon, perhaps by match day 2.

A tough opener but as my new wife says, its 'all about the ball' which i guess means the same as 'its 11 v 11'. So come on City, a home win if you please.

Is she still looking for the other one Hav?

Sorry, I mentioned the "win" word! 

How many points can we get from this if we win, will it take is above Surrey with a game in hand?

Using the "Middlesex" roller again?

Gloshead 

A win at Boro will get us to 7th and then  its down to the last 3 games!

How's  Baker doing , does he look like an injury waiting to happen?

Cardiff  1- 1

No it's not a blame the ref post, but what the hell is going on at the moment? Do they have any regular training sessions, as in - reviewing decisions from the last month in a "what would you do in this situation?" like in training sessions in other occupations. In the Bolton game we could have had a penalty against the goal keeper, in todays match Maggers quite rightly was jumping for the ball and the referee gives a free kick to the goal keeper! Flint and Diedieu are regularly wrestled in the box but that goes unseen. Todays referee seemed very reluctant to hand out any cards in the first half and only managed a yellow for Pennington and another for a simulated dive, a rarity in itself. He then proceeded to book 3 city players for fairly minor offences. To me it doesn't matter how many laws there are in the game if they are all going to be interpreted at the whim of individual officials. Surely referees aren't so fragile that they can't compare their decisions with other referees?

Magnússon for Paterson in a straight swap at scapegoat. 

Pack's moved up in the world!

I really hope that Kent's been told that he primarily plays on the left in front of Joe and not to go wandering wherever he likes. He's got to learn that he's part of a team and not take up the  other player's positions.

It was not an easy return last night. Every time we go away from home for a night game one or more sections of motorway are closed due to men not working. Got home from Manchester round about 02:40 and about 01:15 last night. 

 The trains aren't very obliging after 10 o'clock either!

Point being? I had a great view in HD on the box thanks, probably a better view than those there 

Just interested. It's great watching them on tv but getting home after a night match away is worth a medal! The tv pictures didn't show that corner of the ground. I applaud all those that made it up there to support the team.

How many of us were at Pride park?
