Jerseybean Posted January 15 Report Share Posted January 15 Quiz question to get things started. Which seven football clubs in the Scottish and English senior divisions have names which include North, South, East or West in their title? A clue, we played one of them last time out and this thread is about another! Answer at the end. The game is live on the BBC, https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/67926557 Let’s milk the first game as everybody, but the team’s coach driver, seemed to get in on the act!

The 38-year-old oversaw Hull City's 1-1 draw with fellow EFL Championship side Birmingham City in the FA Cup third round, and has officiated four Premier League games so far this season. England also has two showpiece finals under his belt, refereeing the 2016/17 EFL League Two Play-Off final between Blackpool and Exeter City, which Blackpool won 2-1, and the 2018/19 FA Youth Cup final which Liverpool won, by beating Manchester City on penalties. England will be assisted by James Mainwaring and Alex James. Mainwaring is a highly experienced assistant, who has ample experience in the Premier League and across UEFA European competitions. He has run the line at 17 Premier League matches this season. James, meanwhile, worked with Mainwaring in the FA Cup third round match between Middlesbrough and Aston Villa - a game which Villa won 1-0 - and is a regular assistant referee in the EFL. He has worked on 20 Championship matches this season. Stephen Martin will undertake fourth official duties for Tuesday's replay. The official from Staffordshire took charge of Maidstone United's 1-0 win over Stevenage in the FA Cup third round and has also refereed eleven Championship matches this campaign. The Video Assistant Referee will not be in operation but Goal Line Technology will.

Yozzarian Posted January 15 Report Share Posted January 15 (edited) I'd be lying if I said that the Preston result hadn't stolen some of the wind from my sails before this match. It's the hope that kills you when it comes to City; I'm happy with us storming a league season and I can get my head around/get used to us being shit all year, what I struggle with is the yo-yoing between 'we might make a run for the play-offs' one minute and 'get used to ending 15th come the end of the year so results don't tank my mood,' the next. This said, I'll be there and cheering with everyone else. Edited January 15 by Yozzarian 1 Quote Link to comment

Kid in the Riot Posted January 15 Report Share Posted January 15 Not going up, and not going down. So a big cup win, followed by a decent run, would at least keep the season interesting for a bit longer. They'll be a big TV audience too so let's hope tomorrow is a great occasion for the club. 17 Quote Link to comment
1960maaan Posted January 15 Report Share Posted January 15 I'm in a funny place with this game, even after Cardiff I came home hopeful for the season. Watford raised hope again then we get Brum & Millwall. Went to West Ham for the day out and we play well, just to fade away at Preston. I really hope we turn up tomorrow, play like we can and put them under pressure. Good team, but hit by injuries and players whining that they have to play instead of going on holiday. Good time to play them in theory. Quote Link to comment
bcfc01 Posted January 15 Report Share Posted January 15 Looking forward to the game, but a bit apprehensive. We need a good start and can't let them start like they did last game, we could be out of the game in 20 minutes. Shame about their holiday, hopefully in their heads they are on the beach anyway.

ENOUGH Posted January 16 Report Share Posted January 16 Of course hope we win but, seem to be a goalscorer short of a "11 pack" and remain prone to defensive "lapses" make some noise and get at them and we have a chance. Fair chance it could go to penalties Quote Link to comment

CyderInACan Posted January 16 Report Share Posted January 16 (edited) Capacity crown in BS3 under the lights - the Gate should be bouncing, I just hope we don't concede an early goal and it goes flat. Alternatively an early goal for us would get our tails up and who knows what could happen from thereon in! Let's show everyone what we're about. Big night too for the pubs of BS3, don't forget! And those with parking spaces rented out ha ha Edited January 16 by CyderInACan Quote Link to comment

A few good wins strung together, and it gets all our hopes up and then out of the blue we experience the odd dismal play and result. The Preston result was very disappointing, and I thought bugger who cares about the Hammers replay. But guess what we City supporters are used to the inconsistent results. I will be cheering on at around 0400am my time in OZ. My gut feel is though a Hammers win 2-1 but my heart is obviously a reverse of that and at least a good cup run this season for us which would bring some great morale all round.

Great post JB, do you remember Alf Garnett / Warren Mitchell who was a great actor, and I will always remember him as one of the great Hammers supporters. You got to admit 'IM FOREVER BLOWING BUBBLES" is a classic. Let's hope the Hammers fans tonight will be kept quiet. 1 Quote Link to comment
