My favourite season watching City out of many, thought we were going to have a really good season in our return to the Championship, but typical City we blew it! Looked like we had 2 good players signed up & the club pushed the self destruct button. Oh well at least we’re consistent in that!

There was a Murphy on the Irish under 21 bench the other week but didn’t come on, no idea if it was him or somebody else.

I think it’s more that his fitness level sounds like it’s akin to someone starting couch to 5k from the sounds of it! Not an injury but just seems way below fitness level currently 

Yes that would make sense so fitness side not medical 

So is he suggesting that Murphy is injured when saying ask the medical team, very little information but sounds more than a niggle?

100%.

Francois is 21 yet doesn’t have a squad number, Taylor-Clarke had one last season but doesn’t this.

Fairly clear where they both stand.

Would agree with you regarding Francois, but hasn’t Taylor-Clarke recently returned from long term injury? I guess things will become clearer in the near future.

We nearly got Dale Banton but he had a dodgy knee.

That’s a name from the past, I was still at school!

I'm so excited about this game that my sphincter has put in a transfer request.

Sounds like you need some Imodium sir, if it’s close later in the game I feel things could get a bit messy!

Just tried mobile phone & processed straight away! Almost 2 hours later, took me 2 hours on the phone to get Freight Rover final tickets, we have come so far not.

Get as far as checkout then says error, used different cards as well, tried ringing customer service as tells you to do , complete shambles sadly not unexpected!

Apparently having a crash course on how to cheep ‘yes’ ready to be announced as the new head coach.

Typical City always on the cheep, in saying that I fancy a flutter on us flying up the table(bird) to promotion!

Disgusting , Lansdown’s get the **** out of our club!

 Summons up what is wrong with this country, the rich thinking they know best!

As SL once said: “It’s my club and I’ll do what I want” or words to that effect. That’s exactly what he did and let’s see at 5pm to see whether he’s right or wrong. 

Playing devil’s advocate myself, it’s not beyond the realms that we get thrashed today and Nige gets sacked as a result. That would really show how ******* clueless and inept he really is. 

That’s when he lost couldn’t believe he came out with that! We certainly appear to be drifting eventually we will  hit something & sink back to league 1. We managed to get up quickly last time. Right that’s me miserable & we haven’t even kicked off yet! COYR

Jesus you are a horrible lot.  I've enjoyed it so far  I've added Israel to the bank.

Don’t often agree with you mate but what a miserable bunch. I Iove it it’s hilarious , for me it just highlights the arrogance of the British! It’s just easy fun, chill people

I'm presuming the reason we've not had the same sort of "Anis' first day" vid like we often get is because there's a number of new faces as yet not announced in the same video. 

Let’s hope so

This is very hard to write but my beautiful partner was hit by a van as she walked to the hairdresser in Downend on Friday  morning & sadly died of her unserviceable injuries Friday evening thankfully I was by her side.

Her ward was turned into a Covid ward early on & she was terrified that she would pass it onto me, I am a community nurse pretty sure we both got Covid but it was very early on & so before testing. We spent weeks living in different bedrooms so don’t go there re: PM.

I miss her everyday & we had so many plans, luckily I have lots of support around me.

Hi all thought I will give you an update, obviously my beautiful lady died(killed) & then for good measure my mum died unexpectedly as well.  But I’m posting to say you can get through it. It has been a shit year I’m getting through it & now back to work.  So those going through dark times keep going you will get through it. X COYR

Sorry to add to the gloom not only did my cousins,die in January my fiancé got killed in January her mother was diagnosed with breast cancer & then my mother was diagnosis with breast cancer.as well! 
Life can b shit but we can get through it, x

Sadly, Mrs Red (Andrea) passed away peacefully in the early hours of Friday morning with me and our 3 boys surrounding her with the love that she always respected.  We are broken but we made a promise to her that we would stay strong as a unit and somehow get through this.

We have spent a very emotional weekend talking, reminiscing, crying and laughing because before the cancer, life had been beautiful.  We will get through this, I am determined of that.  It is what she would have wanted.

My thoughts are with you recently lost my partner who was hit by a van while walking along the pavement to the hairdressers.

There is nothing anyone can say x

Ohhhh, flipping heck…I live in Downend, and heard about this last week.  So sorry for your loss, I can’t imagine what you’re going through.

DM open if I can be of any help.

Very kind  of you, like I said lots of support but feel totally overwhelmed with everything.

The last decent home grown was Marvin Harriott wasn’t it?

Think we signed him on a free from someone possibly a London club?

Sorry Dorset most definitely in the West Country/South West /Wessex
