Over 16k turning up to watch City pretty much treat the game like a pre-season friendly.... Had a ticket myself. Decided not to go. Glad it didn't bother. Will certainly never contemplate a City cup game again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LondonBristolian Posted October 25, 2016 Report Share Posted October 25, 2016 The thing is the team was looking jaded and Abraham clearly needed to rest. And I think we have to try players like Moore and Engvall at some point. My only two real issues are: 1) I'd have liked us to have started Tomlin, though I've no idea how fit he is. 2) I don't think rotating the keepers was a good plan. Not seen the game so no idea if a factor but I think ROD and FF play in different ways and mixing it up creates uncertainty in the defence and I don't think there's a real argument for it given LJ has seen a fair amount of ROD this season. If h'd tried Lucic out I'd be more sympathetic but switching keepers seems a bit unnecesary as it is. EDIT: And as I wrote that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should add - I've no issue with what they've done, so long as they let fans know about it in advance. Bang on. Let the fans believe that we are going to give it a go only to find out when they have turned up that there are 9 changes. Sneaky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then it's all just opinions isn't it! Of course, I really was genuinely interested if you had been to those games. Like you say, its all about opinions, maybe I'm a bit of an old romantic, but I still prefer the chance of great nights out over the 'sensible' option of winning league games. I have no idea of your league position when you beat Liverpool in 92(?), and I suspect most of you wouldn't know without looking it up, but I bet you cant look at the Tinnion goal without a tear in your eye.
