    It has an R-0 rating of about 2.0, meaning about 1 in 5 people that come into contact with someone with the virus will catch it. Flu is more like 1 in 8 people.

    I though the R-0 rating was the average number of people who would catch the virus from a single person? i.e. a R-0 of two means one person will on average infect two more - I'm not sure how that translates into what you've written, unless you're somehow using the average number of people someone comes in contact with?

  2. Remember a great game against Wolves a few years ago in the p*ssing wind and rain around Jan/Feb time I think it was - poor first half including a random cross ballooned over Basso in the wind and we were 0-2 down at half time. Dele Adebola came on at half time and absolutely ripped Wolves a new one, they couldn't handle him at all - finished 2-2. Certainly not a beautiful game of football by any stretch of the imagination but one that's stuck in my mind since! What a difference in attitude that was...

    I can't believe this forum, or perhaps I should.  If we had been 3-0 down at half time and come back to get a 3-3 draw, people would have been hailing a fantastic point.  The fact is we were playing a very good side who had the same number of players as us, and we scored three goals each.  It doesn't matter what order they were scored in.  They scored three and we scored three.  It was a good point.  Of course it's disappointing, having been in the lead, but it's still a good point.  Those who say they would have been happy with a point before the game should be happy.  We got a point.

    Nah, I disagree. For one game in isolation maybe but a season is obviously much more than that - and supporting a club you pay more attention than just to individual results, the pattern is just as important. We've been guilty of this all season, and if the goals had been the reverse (them 3-0 up, then us drawing) then it would be far more encouraging. How do you think the players will feel after this, and going in to the next game as a result - if we're 2-0 up next game?

    Of course it makes a difference what order they were scored in. I'm looking for a sign of improvement of us maybe being more tactically aware and the games being managed better, not just the number at the end.

    Now take your pills and settle down love it'll look better in the morning . We play 46 games , if people don't think we'll have a blip then they're deluded. It's football it happens. 

    And those people didn't say it wasn't a blip... You've just made that assumption. People are just commenting on the game on a discussion forum, no need to be so condescending it doesn't make you sound smart.

    You got to love our lot, a couple of below par performances and look at all the negative ******* on here . Oh he should bury that or that's not good enough blah blah most on here probably couldn't trap a bag of cement mind. Get a grip for **** sake. 

    Well he should have scored it - it's a discussion forum and people are discussing the game. The second anyone says anything realistic (not even that negative) about 10 people spring out the woodwork with this nonsense every time. People are allowed to point out things city have done badly / could have done better without thinking we're sh*t and being "negative *******" you know... Sounds like you need to get a grip to me.
