It’s tipping with rain.
We haven’t scored at home in past 3 games (bar an OG).
We haven’t kept a clean sheet at home.
Our manager sees a 0-0 as a great result.
In short can’t wait for the game <whistle>

Nor can I - but I can tell you one thing, I won't be getting wet this time.

I've been soaked to the skin over the years supporting my club, team and manager, but sorry not right now.

The club (directors), team and manager all need a shake up. At the moment, we're not even reaching the level of mediocre.

Luxury!
I used to have to leave my cardboard box eight hours before kick off. walk int pouring rain and snow tut ground, cut grass with my teeth for a shilling, pay back shilling to watch the game from top of bob bank roof and then when the game was over, I had to polish roof clean before walking home.

But I didn't have to suffer the crap that's being served up at the moment.

Never mind. C'mon City.
 
Can't believe we're odds on with B365 to win this. <doh>

They've got us @ 10/11 with Reading @ 11/4 against. I'm tempted to back Reading but can't bring myself to do it so looking at the scorer offerings instead.

Flinty and Morro who are both usually around 7/1 or 8/1 for an anytime goal have been brought right in to 5/1. Do they know something we don't?

Masky is a number of things, but certainly not a fool Clingy pal, don’t believe a word of your nonsense, but the polish thing reminds me of a moment of naivety in my past! I was invited to a friends party with a Polish theme...I thought this sounds good, maybe dancing with a few polish girls, could lead to a pleasure for her! When I got there this so called friend, had his motorbike stripped down and gave us all a cloth and said “go ahead and polish pals, thanks for coming!” Arrsehole! :emoticon-0103-cool:

I'm deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeply hurt that you don'r believe me maskey. I have no difficulty in believing your story.
 
Surely MM has to change it round today.

5 at the back doesn’t work as (1) we haven’t got quick CDs to slot in when our WBs go in the attack (2) we haven’t got CDs who can distribute (3) we haven’t got any proper WBs (4) we haven’t got any wingers capable of combining with the WBs (5) a proper midfield to collect/run with the ball and pass forwards (6) we haven’t got a creative CMr or no 10 and (7) we haven’t got any forwards who can score.

So shake up the personnel, go 4-4-2 and see what happens.

What’s the worse that can happen eh? We lose at home again, we don’t score again and we concede again.

Largely agree but want to again campaign for 4231.
