Granted it was an early kick off, but the Anecdote was busy for ages after the Sunderland game. gets busy before matches and at half time too. But granted, it’s not the same as the typical ‘match day’ pubs. also bearing in mind a fan village costs money to get the contractors in each time to...

one thing to consider is that Nike and adidas do ‘replica’ and ‘stadium’ shirts and ‘match’ shirts, I.e the ones the players will actually wear versus the typical fan. And I believe the player shirts are meant to be as light as possible. Whereas what our players will wear is essentially what’s...

For me his best commentary was Gazza’s goal in euro 96. Simple and just accompanied a piece of brilliance.

It’s the consistency I didn’t like - let Luton get away with stuff we didn’t.

That would be bad - terrible quality issues at Castore. they’ve just got to sign with whoever does Southampton and bristols and whoever else have Hummel. Might cost money but it’s a huge opportunity missed if not. Also, sounds like the chequerboard or 2-tone designs will be in again next year -...

There’s an older video from last season where the dude says how he likes working with us on designs as he comes up with stuff and we push it more in terms of being more radical

Agree with that. And for the fourth it was almost as if we were saying to their player “go on then shoot”. We did get lucky though with them hitting the post and bar.

Also poor decision making, poor passes in final third, and clearly the lack of real investment in squad over last couple of windows is showing, there’s no depth and the big injuries to key players have really shown now.

We’re too nice I think - not enough grit in midfield - one thing Norwich did not or would not have liked was being kicked about a bit. missed opportunity today - Norwich didn’t look all that I didn’t think - seemed to lose belief at half time and let them play.

I thought Kane has actually been pretty decent when he’s played last few games, certainly offered more than Dabo has recently. But I do think Burroughs looks a better bet. But we’ve got the new boy Cuffy. A shame I think, plus my lad really likes him so he’ll be a bit sad.

Gutted for him that injury. He needed a game like this though to start finding his feet in the ‘first’ team. we don’t have much luck with serious injuries to either key or exciting players.

Same on the Apprentice. someone who is 23 and working in recruitment (for example) for 2 years and suddenly they’re an expert? No you’re fucking not….

Put Gyökeres into Google translate as Hungarian and it sounds “yurkeresh” Silent G is right.

Used to piss me off with George Boateng. When he played for us, seemed every commentator used to pronounce it as it was spelt. As soon as he was at villa or Middlesbrough, his name was pronounced correctly as Bwateng. Im a bit of a stickler for pronouncing names correctly as people get mine...

Generally if it’s an ACL they hold the back of the thigh above the knee - something about not wanting the leg to bend?

What an absolute fucking shitshow. So presumably then when the players need new kit, which they will on a reasonably regular basis, what happens then? Presumably clubs like Cambridge and at Albans city who have Hummel kits don’t appear to use elite sports as their shops are still alright? And...

Doesn’t feel right to me this. so out of the blue - who is this geezer? What the hell does he want with coventry city? Fair enough if the ‘local businessman’ was someone we’d heard of and knew was actually interested in football and/or a fan. The fact he also said about sisu did well bringing...

I know we’re galaxies apart in terms of resources and revenues generated, but Man City don’t own their ground, the council do. The club operate it and own the lease. so the model can work, providing the agreements work for all parties in terms of money.

Plenty of stuff you could do if money were no object…. Replace the blue cladding on outside of ground with white. The dark blue tinted windows would still work well and hark back to our original colours. Finish the cbs arena branding on the roof. Cover any concrete bits inside the bowl with...

I didn’t think it was that bad a performance. First half frustrating as it was in terms of giving the ball away we did go close a few times. second half hit woodwork, but didn’t carve out any clear cut chances that we should have scored. I think you could tell Preston have had more match time -...
