    2023/24 Season Predictions

    Sorry guys, I can't handle the doom and gloom. I've tried to go with it but I'm afraid the negativity, cynicism and criticism are too much for me. Not everyone but enough to create an air. I'm of fragile temperament and can take myself to the dark side easily. I don't need the path marking, and...

    2023/24 Season Predictions

    I don't do predictions. Well, I do but only as farce. I have absolutely no ****ing idea of how this season will go. There are far too many factors that I/we know **** all about. So, OK, Enzo's trousers to fall down away at Plymouth.

    Speculation The hysterical and annoying, but traditional, totally unfounded summer 2023 rumours thread - it's started already!

    It was... potentially. I saw it as a pun though I could be mistaken.

    How's the squad shaping up?

    You get a 'like' for that alone.

    Tch, he used the imperfect subjunctive form when, in Danish, the pluperfect was clearly the more correct.

    Yes, Veste gets some stick, unfairly imho, for basically not being a different kind of player. Given that though I honestly don't get why he hasn't jumped (an unfortunate choice of word given the criticism he gets) The Fulham offer particularly seemed decent - but then, what do I know of it...

    How's the squad shaping up?

    I'd not fret too much. Next to no one is 'ready'. I read Mark Robbins saying the same of Cov. Pre-season now extends into the first 3 or 4 games of the season, and has done for some time. I remember Wenger saying something like it towards the end of his Arsenal time. A smart team might look to...

    Are they still tweets?

    Have twitter taken a leaf out of Prince's book (exPrince? xPrince? - is the latter some kind of stat?) And how is X pronounced? The social media site formerly known as twitter? Tweets are now supposedly xeets? Or are they? How do you say that? Will anyone even try? Tweet is etched into the...

    How to Watch City this season

    I'll take your word for that. Small keyboards, spellcheckers, typos, crap spelling... the source of much amusement.

    How to Watch City this season

    Well, hopefully not a shit stream (I might well have to find out) and commentators are always inane at worst but, yes, if it gives me an option then I might well take - to watch us.

    How to Watch City this season

    I wouldn't pay it either. That said, I wouldn't pay it for a Prem match either, nor even the CL final. Not unless we were in it. In my case, I'm not paying a tenner to watch a championship match, I'm paying it to watch us.

    How to Watch City this season

    There's that and there's having the choice. For example, if I try to listen I get a 'rights restricted' message. It's not like anyone is exercising those rights though, I don't have another option to listen. And tele? Sure, I could install a sattelite dish and buy a subscription that includes...
