Thanks to Pep, nearly every team plays it”out from the back”. Unfortunately this doesn’t seem to be happening. Playing out from the back with City seems to involve the goalie passing to the full back or central defender, the ball is then passed back to the goalie for the routine to start again. Whoever has the ball when the music stops. i.e. the opposing forward has got fed up waiting and realises the ball is going nowhere, he then pressurises the defender into kicking the ball somewhere upfield which is what the goalie could have done the first place. I thought the idea of playing out from the back was to make progression upfield via the wings or midfield, with accurate passing. It pains me to say that one team who do not play this way, are Forest. They are direct and much more effective than many other slow build teams.

I think this was a bit of a “Hollywood” appointment, based on his 4 match.run win, 2 of which were against City! We needed an experienced manager not a learner who’s trying to learn at our . How can you take off the most exciting and creative player on the pitch and the only player actually travelling towards the opposition goal. So disappointing. Appointment made by someone only seeing a famous name and not looking at whether they have the know how to manage a team in the relegation zone.

Proud of that fact are you? I wouldn’t have missed the Pearson and Ranieri years and the Cup win for anything. I certainly wouldn’t be thinking how great I was that I’d missed it if I was a true supporter. It’s bad now but we just keep hoping against hope that we’ll get a win soon.

You could try a self imposed ban….

Grayson had more than 1 good season.

Would swap Savage and Impey for Parker and/or Grayson or Gary Mills.

Agree with not retiring shirts. The number 9 shirt is an iconic shirt and should pass on to another. Shirts 1 to 11 should remain. Some shirt numbers are ridiculous and don’t mean anything at all except might be someone’s favourite.

Most teams’ fans sang YNWA and Hey Jude well into the 80s but I think after Hillsborpugh, YNWA became some sort of Anthem especially for Liverpool fans..

Easier said than done for most fans. Yes the running of the club at the moment is abysmal and embarrassing, but it’s the players on the pitch who we go to see and give our support to. The management and many years ago, directors who never seemed to put any money into the club, were always seen as the enemy. I have no intention of boycotting the team I love and don’t feel guilty in doing so, when told on here it’s what I should be doing.

We’d be Wayne Rooney’s Leicester City for a short while. Doubt he would bring Coleen to the Christmas party! We’d get a lot of publicity though🤭

For the 1st booking it wasn’t even a foul. He never connected with the player.

Forest win. My love for City far outweighs my hate for Forest.

I sense a dislike for Vardy who is our “captain”. Which several mangers are you referring to. Thought we all wanted Rodgers and Cooper out

They weren’t 3rd when punished. Why is it taking so long over a number of years to punish Man City? Chelsea got round the rules by giving 8 year contracts so costs spread over that time.

Not necessarily City winning again but anyone outside the top 6

They still haven’t got over us winning the league. I think we all saw the comment about not wanting “another Leicester “ and they’ll make sure it doesn’t ever happen again.

Would leave out Maguire, toss up between Walsh and Elliott, would probably have to reluctantly leave out Walshie as in this era, he’d be suspended for most of the season. Huth seems to be a shoe in.

You’re just what we want, negativity seeps from every pore🤨

We have too many players who are so inconsistent. Wilf can be brilliant one week then awful for 3. Same with Faes and Mav. Only player who shows any consistency is Mads. Vardy when given the service is pretty reliable. When I watch Ipswich and Everton, they have several players who are pretty solid. Ipswich attack with some pace and Everton are fairly solid defensively. Although these teams are at the bottom, they do have some possible match winners in defence and attack. We need to find this consistency.

Was Ward at fault with any of the goals?

Unfortunately, there doesn’t seem to be many parking spaces in easy to exit areas outside your own turnstile.

This happens at the majority of stadiums so don’t think it only applies to City fans. I remember standing on the Pop side in the 60s and unable to understand why the Main stand used to start emptying before the end. I was only a teenager and wouldn’t have been concerned about trains, buses or traffic as me and my friends used to walk back into town, stopping for a bag of chips at Aylestone Rd. Chippy, then taking a leisurely stroll to Humberstone Gate where the buses ran every 20 mins. It will continue to happen so can some of you stop banging on about it.

He’s never got over Rodgers choosing to come to City from his beloved Celtic. Even said at the time that Celtic’s reserve team was bigger than City’s 1st team. Loves the sound of his own voice and doesn’t like to be challenged.

Wilf was outstanding second half on Tuesday because he wasn’t asked to play up front and made a lot of vital blocks and clearances.

Having watched Saints and Ipswich today, we seem some way behind them with attacking intent. Need to play the best form of defence which is attacking.
