accessory

He played half a game against the USA in 2018. He did make a couple of saves today to earn the win, but isn't exactly in the Hermansen/Iversen category, let alone the (vintage) Schmeichel one.

Leaders Wednesday held by bottom side Wigan. Don't think there's a dominant side that will boss this league this season.

He had a few moments. But he faded in the second half. Not quite sure he's up for a full 90 minutes yet.

Wasn't Morrison sent off - it was Miguel Vitor. He became part of a select group (including Dion Dublin and more recently, Bade Aluko) to have been red-carded on their league debut for City.

They'd reverted to sh*te even before Maresca left, though.

It does. Judging by Harborough's status as a National League North club, it's reasonable to assume that we (or more likely, a "sevco" club bearing our name) would be in the same division.

They're products of the glorified cesspit that is Seagrave, overseen by Teflon Jon himself. We saw all too vividly today how well that venue has prepared them, both mentally and physically, for the stresses and strains of professional football. Worse still, the toxicity of the "world-leading training ground" has already afflicted those whom we've taken on loan from Premier clubs to, supposedly, raise the standard. There is zero chance whatsoever of improvement while Rudkin and his latest puppet are in charge at the club.

Rudkin actually joined the club in the 1980s as a youth coach. He therefore predates Mandaric by at least 20 years. Pre-King Power, his sphere of influence remained extremely limited, but his incessant toadying to Vichai and Aiyawatt enabled him to move swiftly onwards and upwards. He doesn't speak to the media (unless it's off the record) because he doesn't wish to draw wider public attention to his existence. And as City's slide towards the National League continues, he's not likely to change that habit any time soon..

For all the stitching-up that's gone on at Seagrave during the summer, Martin hasn't helped himself by starting Thomas and Reid. The academy products have been seen to be no more than average. Brace yourself, folks - this will be yet another long winter..

Apart from Joseph, none of the team have turned up so far today. Burns and BDCR are off the pace, but so are the so-called "wonder kids" Alves, Page and Braybrooke. This manager now has options on the bench. He really needs to use them to save this.

They turned it round in the end, though. Meanwhile, Divine Mukasa scored twice for West Ham against Wolves. Think he'll be pretty decent there..

The Plymouth guy decided he would put one on Stolarczyk to send a message. Every team in this league will try to bully us off the park. A referee of any quality would have issued a card for that challenge. And BDCR having a giggle with the perp afterwards, as caught on camera, was NOT a good look.. 😠

Doesn't quite make up for the previous four or five windows, but the powers-that-be (chiefly McCarron) deserve due credit.

Doesn't the laughing gnome (who brought WF to City in the first place as a panic buy to replace Wes Fofana) manage in Saudi these days?

If you REALLY think one of the class of 2021 was or is more toxic to City than Jon Rudkin, then (to paraphrase NP) you must be an ostrich! See the Restore Britain element of the Foxes fanbase have wasted no time toasting his departure. They may dream of the day when we again field an all-white starting 11 - with stands and a directors box to match. But that fantasy is as likely to happen as Rupert Lowe being given the keys to 10 Downing Street.
