I have been using the mobile ticketing for my season ticket this season. From my experience it has been pretty good, bar the two week gap prior to the Norwich game. For some reason the ticket disappeared from my Google Wallet and when I tried to download again it wouldn't work. Had to go to the...

Comfortably the worst performance of the season against a Millwall team who were garbage. A huge opportunity missed.

Having taken the time to digest the PSR ruling, it is clear the rules currently discriminate against the likes of Leicester, Forest, Everton. This is all about club ownership, and the big 6 not wanting to be threatened and potentially lose out on lucrative CL money. For what it's worth, the...

Brilliant performance after two disappointing results.

Having had time to reflect, that was another very good City performance. We're taking time to move the ball quicker, but when we do it is working a treat. A tactical switch at HT, pushing Pereira forward created more overloads and 80% possession eventually tires the opposition out and...

Great performance - blew Plymouth away in the 2nd half, when we were far more ruthless. We could've gone into HT level or even behind, but for a combination of casualness and poor finishing. Last 30 mins was dull but fully understand why - game was won, a raft of substitutions and then slow the...

That result and performance is the mark of champions.

From first whistle to last, we were far too casual all over the pitch. Moved the ball too slowly and started with the goalkeeper passing out to an under pressure RP and lucky not to concede. It didn't get any better.

Great performance, a good result, and crucially another victory ticked off. 14 down, 16 to go. My take on the season so far as follows......... Plan A is possession-based football. Plan B is do Plan A better - yesterday, we moved the ball quicker in the 2nd half, started breaking the lines...

This will have a long term negative effect on Everton, similar to when we went into administration 20 years ago. The financial scrutiny they are now under will prohibit them going near the FFP line again, seriously wrecking their ambitions to spend big and put players on big wages. They might...

We’ve become a bit ponderous in attack in the last few matches - in the final third, we’re going sideways and low risk, rather thank as we did against Preston where we sliced through them down the middle with incisive passing.

Very good performance, could’ve scored more. We’re intimidating teams before we’ve even started.

When Preston finally decided to press us, you can tell we're getting better at dealing with that as we knocked it around really well. Teams will really fear coming to the KP as it looks like press and get picked off or sit deep and have the legs run off you.

What is odd is that we've long since accepted that players & managers make mistakes that lead to goals, sendings off etc, but referees are not allowed to so we have to have VAR. Surely human error is and should be part of football, so if players can make errors, so should referees?

I thought there were encouraging signs yesterday, especially in the 1st half. Coventry stepped up the pressure in the 2nd half and we didn't cope well with it, conceding and then looking like conceding more. That said, we hung on, regained composure and started pressing them back. A big...
