Our cunning plan is being executed perfectly

- then BOSH!!!

Gutted I can't be there tonight. Although it is relatively quick to get from London to Manchester, it would result in me taking time off today and tomorrow as I would struggle to get back this evening. Similarly, I have to use two half days to come to the second leg. I hope to hear you lads making a lot of noise!

Exactly. First time today that I actually feel a bit jealous of all those who will be there.

There in spirit   COYR!

Got to say she has the look of somebody that has been promised a big night out, and has just realised it is a bag of crisps at the service station.

Jealous of you all, have a cracking time.

 I'm scared enough as it is, and I'm only going to be watching from the pub! COYRs

I would imagine 95% of our own fans think we will get stuffed.

 

I’m amongst the naive 5% then. Or deluded.

Passion and belief. All you need 

And if it comes in we’re £1000 up!

30 minutes away.

Etihad Stadium, here we come!

COYR!

No,we park the Metro Bus.

The Superbendybus

If anyone has travelled with a spare ticket then let me know!

Mate of mine has a ticket in the home end and is happy to buy again.

Having beer and food at the moment, but could collect by the ground in exchange for cash.

[Coppello]

Interesting stat from Sky Sports News. We're the top scorers in the tournament with the semi-finalists scoring the following:

Bristol City - 16

Chelsea - 9

Arsenal - 4

Manchester City - 3

It doesn't affect the result of this game but it is a telling sign to the lazy journalists who are claiming that we will park the bus.

@El Hombrecito has one at the stadium he's trying to get rid of. And @BigAlToby&Liam

I’ve got one. Want it?

[chipdawg]

Such an unproductive day at work waiting for this. Don't care if we lose so long as we give them hell and have something to play for back at AG. Reckon we could get a draw though and do it playing well

It said Albie. Or something to that effect. 

I think It’s Aaron Wilbraham’s.

I think this mostly because Aaron Wilbraham was driving it.

Eh? Man C have got to the semis having scored a total of 3 goals?

They weren't kidding about this competition being fixed clearly.

Obviously, assuming this transaction is successful - anyone want a ticket for the home end?

Face value. FORTY TWO QUID!!!!

No idea how he managed to spend that much, but no robbery, that was the price.

[spudski]

The pubs are full of City. Fans flown in from other countries for this. Place is buzzing...3 whisky in...and a fiver at 28-1 for a City win all of a sudden seems good value :laugh: coyrs
