Soooooo I meant to dip in and out of this over the season but with everything City related I forgot… Anyone have any highlights so far this season? I see cup finals are now being played, any trophies for the bedroom trophy shelf? Turns out the full sized goals weren’t the disaster my oldest thought they’d be. Downside is that they don’t seem to want to play any more - not sure how to handle it. It’s been a step up in a league that’s full of amazingly talented players, so was always going to be up against. Amazing natural ability which would be a shame to waste, but short of forcing them I’m not sure what I can do? Youngest has now finished the last 7 a side season they’ll play in. That can’t come soon enough as they’ve all outgrown those pitches. One thing I would point out is that I’ve seen zero poor behaviour on the touchlines this season - is this an outlier?

Be careful what you wish for though. /s

Personally think we’ll lose the two Easter games but then finish strongly. Put me down for a 15 point return from that lot.

Give it to Tinnion so I can boo the *** for 90 minutes while he has flashbacks to how comfy the dug out is at Swansea.

Probably should have kept his figurative mouth shut imo. He knew exactly what he’s doing. But hey, we freed up the wages to sign Mannings dressing room nark and a lad so shite he could get a game in Belgium.

Until he’s undermined by unhelpful comments publicly from the barely functional chairman, or secretly by the snake to his hierarchy. No manager is onto a winner when they have that shit show above them.

Cheers mate, appreciate it

Out of interest what do you call tangible improvement? I’ve lumped on to December and I’ll be honest I haven’t really considered what I’d call acceptable at this point. Being entertained I guess, which is subjective.

Good luck to all of you!

Yeah. That is the words of someone who knows they’re in jeopardy. Going by Tinnion trying to justify his position in the week, I wonder if big Steve has dropped a grenade.

The ultimate irony if 3 of the main clubs the “be careful what you wish for” crowd use as examples get back into the prem.

I said give him till December… You’re making it very hard for me Liam.

It’s the lack of critical thinking that normally goes hand in hand with it. “things have been worse” implys that this is fine.

Anyone have an idea when they usually announce if the P&R is running for matches?

Thing is, you can’t rule it out. There’s been some excellent results amongst the utter dross. Fingers crossed for today.

Sky reporting a Yank consortium are close to buying them. Which makes the timing of flogging the training ground very suspect. Given that they were the ultimate plastic club on their rise, I wonder what they’ll be like in league 2.

They used to? Which I find myself saying a lot lately. They used to have decent & well priced food and drink The rewards scheme used to be good The stewards used to know what they were doing

C. Jon Lansdown

Well that’s probably wise in all fairness. Big Jon announcing this would be putting fuel on the fire

Not my bag these days, but between 2001 and 2011 when it was, I can think of at least 4 fan led movements to improve the atmosphere on a matchday. 3 of those were actively sabotaged by the club. The one that did take off worked well (although bizarrely opposed by the then chairman of the supports club) . So I don’t think we necessarily have a fan problem when it comes to atmosphere…the current configuration and utilisation of seats makes getting something going and then growing difficult, if not impossible.

Because in the hierarchy of professional football, no one gives a **** about the fans!
