I'm watching it on the newest version of Chrome. It's working fine now but it was buffering and I needed to refresh it a few times.
I had no problems today. No buffering and a much improved picture quality on last time.
 
Last season I sang:

:emoticon-0159-musicHe's here, he's there,
He's every ****ing where.
Honeyman! Honeyman!:emoticon-0159-music

This season I'm singing:

:emoticon-0159-musicHe's here, he's there,
He's every ****ing where.
Honeyman! Honeyman!:emoticon-0159-music


Only difference is that this season he seems to have discovered that this is a game played with a ****ing football.

And it's not a game where the winner is the bloke who looks most like a spaniel puppy.



Who knows, maybe there's a footballer hiding underneath that shocking barnet.
 
This league is starting to take shape a bit now.

So far so good.

Kudos to McCann.

Aye, though I can't see Lincoln sustaining a promotion bid and I'd be very surprised if the likes of Sunderland, Portsmouth and Fleetwood don't get their **** together and start climbing the league.

The best way in a league like this is to take it a game at a time and beat what's in front of you. As it stands, Ipswich present possibly the biggest challenge so far. Win there and we'll be sitting pretty.

Ok, may be the wine talking, (most probably), and why not after a cracking City game & result today. Just watching Spurs/Man City, anyone else thinking Man City are a shadow of their former selves, and even our City could give them a good game right now? Only be one team with fire in their belly, UTT.

Ok, Time to go for a refill, now Strictly unavailable.

Would seriously consider taking a point now at Ipswich. Some teams will hurt us more than others and vice versa.

Glass of claret time.


Forza City.

Two more glasses and a nice piece of cheese before you turn in. You will dream of a cup final again !

MK Dons looked like the best team going forward we've played, though their defence was predictably awful. Ipswich are one of those teams like Stoke who look to frustrate and then hit you on the counter. They have players that are very good at this level, Gwion Edwards, Alan Judge, Freddie Sears...they also have a 6ft 9 goalkeeper who isn't bad at all.

6' 9'' keeper ? Put it in the bottom corners, he's got further to get down.
We've been doing well at Portman Road recently so nothing to fear.
 
I think MK Dons looked a pretty dangerous and threatening side and as usual we did well, Think their goal was quite fortunate but thats how it goes at times. It is so nice to see a bit of positivity around the club again, for the first time i think supporting city I always believe we have goals in us and trust us to get back into a game if we go behind. Credit where it's due after last season to picking the squad up, adding those fresh hungry players and getting it all to work - as mentioned previously its ours to throw away I think

Is it just me or does James Scott look like a complete athlete? Tall, strong, quick, good ball control, good in the air and got a cracking shot on him. I know I've sung his praises before but I'd love to see him start more in the league, perhaps not ahead of KLP but ahead of the likes of Adelakun and Mayer at least right now.
 
Scouts from 2 different team where there today to watch greeves, both championship teams, 3rd game for one of the teams
 
Agree very gratifying win and some excellent individual performances. Can't agree with you about making the changes in midfield earlier. The last few minutes of that game after we took off Honeyman and Smallwood demonstrated just how important they are to this team.. Thought they started to walk through our midfield in the last few minutes and needed some last ditch defending to avoid a nerve-racking finish.

Agree Kingston, thought both Slater & Batty were sloppy when they came on and they started to walk through us almost at ease. We got through it though and now it's onto Ipswich.

Some of the of the clips of him in Scotland just before he signed, he did look a lot like Bowen in his style of play.

I know he’s his own man, but there are a lot of similarities.
