oz was my hero

Yes but those fans would love it cos their gerrin it forward. I despair.

Have read a few pages and missed a lot. Whats pissing me off this season is not the football but the so called fans. Football has evolved . We have what I think is the best coach /manager in the league. Some of the football is brilliant., look at some of the movement and intricate passes to open things up from the back instead of boot it. Its well managed . The game is no longer about 11 pissed up thugs running around like headless chicken's for 90 minutes. People moaning about last night. ITS BORING. Get a ****ing grip. We're top of the league, top goal scorers, least conceded. That's game management. The game was done . Never in doubt. Why run yourselves into the ground for the same 3 points. If that's the football you crave , **** off down the M69 and watch them struggle for play offs and listen to Robins saying they are all tired.

I don't know as I don't pay much attention to these things,but where has all the money gone? Didn't we receive £40m in parachute payments ? What tv money do we get in the championship? Barnes and Maddison money? 7 players off our books we no longer have to find wages for. I may be very wrong , but surely we shouldn't need to sell one of our top players ?

The guy also told me macia left because he could no longer work for rudkin and this guy left when Rogers and congerton became impossible, he moved to a Portuguese team. Seemed to have really annoyed him as he was not only a scout but city fan. Was his dream job when he got it.

That should have said perez not pereira in the first bit. 🙄

Watched the wednesday cov game today. Cov were nowhere near the level as they were last Saturday. Wednesday were bloody awful. Teams seem to raise their game against us. I know we didn't play well last weekend but if cov played like they did today we would have dominated that game and an easy win.

How much of our recruitment is down to him ? After speaking to an ex scout of ours last season it seems quite a lot. Ryan Bennett was definitely on him and scouts had identified a young player that is now playing champions league football. Perez was apparently another Rudkin signing that scouts didn't identify. Even if that's not 100% of truth since he became Dof these players have arrived. Schwarzer Kramaric Huth Fuchs Okazaki Kante Benalouane Inler Gray Amartey Iverson Zieler Hernandez Musa Kapustka Slimani Mendy Ndidi Maguire Iborra Jakipovic Iheanacho Silva Diabate Evans Maddison Pereira Ward ghezzal benkovic Soyuncu Justin Perez Hirst Tielemans Praet Castagne Fofana Daka Soumare Bertrand Vestergaard Faes Kristiansen Souttar Winks Coady Hermansen Mavidididi Cannon That's not including players for the academy and loans. Some turnover since December 14. Some good signings, but christ there is some shit in there. Would say there's 15 terrible ones in that list. 5 that just didn't suit us. Out of 50. others have not made an impact. 7 walked out the door for nothing. Not good business which ever way you look at it.

If someone won Danny ward in a raffle they wouldn't turn up to collect him. Unfortunately we are stuck with him until his contract expires.

This half of the season is down to the mentality of the players. The system is good, tactics are good. Surely the players must have that feeling of nothing but champions is shit. We have a manager who the players have bought into and is brilliant at analysing opponents. Sets up right , changes things when needed mid game. Only complacency could derail us. Can't see enzo allowing that.

I do think Faes is underrated by some of our fans. Last season he had Dan the donkey next to him. Also had full backs in castagne,that could leave more holes than a M16, very young and weak Thomas and a raw kristienson. Combine that with an out of form Ndidi and a half arsed tielemans in front of him. You could have put , any of Adams,stam,butcher in there and they would have looked poorer than they really are.

Rotate as much as possible. Injuries to key players and January could look very different. We need strong sides against cov and ipswitch. Already 4 players down, no idea when vardy is back. Praet is made of tissue. Casadei and yunus did OK today but don't want both starting at cov. Would also like to see ricci miss this one and winks have a rest, but who would play his role ?

I thought that was the case about general sale, lad was telling me he bought a ticket yesterday for todays game and all you have to do is register for a number. No membership required.

Same as us , over 35 and didn't get one.

Just got back and happy with that. Solid professional performance . Could have been more. Win Monday and its been an excellent Xmas period.

Absolute scumbag, hope he has a visit from some other boys in blue.

Anyone know the pubs for tomorrow?

A bit off topic, swansea tickets will be on sale shortly I presume, If either team wins their cup tied it will be rearranged for midweek I imagine. Will it be the same shambles as Villa last season where I was only offered a voucher to spend in the club shop as my kid couldn't go ?

Never really been interested in stats. They can be misleading. 1 team rattles the post and hits the bar but haven't had a shot on target, while the other side had 20 shots of which 19 the keeper dropped his hat on.

Can't stand these mobile tickets. Leeds at home scanned my phone to get my little one in with success. My ticket wouldn't scan. Had to go to ticket office and leave my kid inside as they wouldn't let her out. At the ticket office , told them one worked , one didn't. Was asked where my daughter was as neither ticket had scanned. When I said she was in the ground the response was, she can't be neither have scanned. Am now at slightly simmering point. Was then told I needed to get her out and bring her round to the office. Was then at a boiling point, walked back round to turnstile where a nice lady steward with actual brain cells was near the gate. Told her the situation , she called my little one over looked at my phone and let me in. Missed 20 minutes . Wouldn't have happened with paper tickets or card.

Before the season started I thought kel would tear this division a new one. Really thought he would be up for it Especially after his reaction at Leeds end of last season. Unfortunately I think he's checked out.

Would be funny especially if loads joined in, am now singing this round the house laughing 😃

Had the game in the corporate bit tonight as a work Xmas jolly instead of my usual in sk1. What really stood out to me apart from the killer eyes and the disgusting looks when I started to sing and bang on the barrier , ( letters of complaint probably already being written by the regulars). . Times during the game ,sk1,l1and the family stand singing different songs while the usual happy clappers where just smashing cardboard. If only that was a whole end in unison it would have been quite loud. At the end of the game that awful music that's belted out at full tilt was very quiet in the west stand., so I wonder if its done on purpose by the club in certain areas? Anyway back to my zone for the rest of the season .

Casadei hat trick tonight as I have been saying to a work mate I think he's crap. Sods law he'll make me eat my words.

Me also, 50 next year and I'm not going to just stop singing and move from sk1. It's a mindset thing not an age thing.

The same reason they haven't beaten anyone else , because they are completely shit yet they could have put 4 past us
