    Note taken.

    Unfortunately the reasons for being negative perfectly balance the reasons for being positive, thus you are better advised to not give a **** rather than swaying either way.

    How can you be right about something that's totally unresolved and has been floating around in total uncertainty for the last 3 months?

    Stay impartial, you won't be gutted if it ****s up then.

    lets not forget most of you cocksuckers were still saying it was all fake until the docs and even beyond, so I'm going with the reporter being truthful on this .

    True. In fact one of Man City’s players Kdb is probably worth more than our whole 1st 11.

    Having said that we didn’t even give it a go. The players are fit enough the press and challenge. On technical ability no I agree they are light years ahead. But the tactics was the problem. We just sat back and basically did nothing.

    What I was referring to is Bruce’s subtle ability to use excuses to cover his own arse.

    If we don’t have an answer this week I would be very surprised.

    Its called not being a sheeple or naive :)

    Unfortunately they don't have any excuses cause they've gone to print over last 6 months or so claiming next week is the week. To be honest I kinda admire their ability to dust themselves off, ignore that their claims have been proven wrong 25 weeks in a row or something, but still have the balls to wheel it out again the following week. And the chumps believe it too. Pretty impressive really.

    being right is neither positive or negative

    the only correct position is I don't know ie being right .

    my opinion is that it's going through this week

    Blatantly pulled a Rafa and tried to detract from the debacle. Mind all managers do this. But there is no doubt the takeover uncertainty was a cheap get out of jail attempt. **** off Steve, you can get back in there with Bubba and take what you deserve <laugh>

    Wot?

    That's being positive though as you think it's going through this week.

    No one's got a clue and I bet it doesn't go through this week. We've been floating around like ****s for the last 13 weeks so why should this one be any different?

    Can we continue?

    I just wanted to know why you think it's happening this week, when all the evidence of the last 3 months just suggests this will continue to roll on with no end in sight.

    There's no evidence other than what's reported .. I believe graves and caulken...there's no suggestion it will roll on all summer fro anyone..

    I read graves post as genuine in response to some dickhead that knows nothing and assumes nobody else does.

    that's my opinion


    the right position is I don't know.

    Wrong. Pete Graves has sources "VERY close to the deal. I realise Pete also told us it was imminent on the 22 May and the 3rd June. And I realise he has made these claims over a number of months, using his very close sources. However I believe him this time because he didn't use capitals on the previous occasions. Its definitely 100% imminent <laugh>

    I get your point but imo, the tactics were the same. The execution wasn't there. We were set up to play five at the back, absorb pressure and hit quickly with ASM and Almiron. As we have done so previously. But in the first half yesterday we just couldn't do that. A lack of composure and good decisions when on the ball, coupled with Man City putting on incredible levels of pressure. Its happened to teams before and it will happen again. The tactics didn't change too much in the second half other than Schar coming a bit further forward but we started making better decisions and ASM began to click. Second half definitely better than the first but overall, not a car crash performance by any means. Again, in my opinion.
