    Both never played football before.

    Both think your leg stops as soon as you smash a ball away

    No your legs don't stop, you stamp down on the player for coming in with such a challenge, I'd expect no less from a Man City player, Sunday League style <ok>

    Only the player knows if there was any intent, Kane was late and Delph caught his ankle, having watched it live & seen the replay numerous times, given the speed of the collision it’s impossible to say imo.

    Yeah, pretty much agree mate. Looked like Kane slipped as he went for the block. Delph followed through and came down on his ankle. As you say only Delph knows if it was intentional.

    Whad’ya think of this one?...

    Agree mate...yesterday was a big treat!
    In fairness there were tickets for £55 (still expensive) but they went quicky...the ones I got were late releases due to city not sell their allocation and the corporate companies who are allowed to sell on tickets were not able to sell theirs (at their outrageous mark ups) so they were returned.

    I have been lucky the past 5 years or so...got higher paid job which was completely secure but with the education cuts getting worse god knows about next year!

    Tbh I get the cost argument re city last night but they never seem to sell out there place...last week they had around 10000 empty seats at their place!

    Just seen the challenge...don't think Delph meant it but no idea how kane committed a terrible tackle in fairness.

    His and Pochettino's reaction was a mix of frustration at the injury (his 3rd in 13 months) and to the treatment Kane had been getting from City who were taking it in turns to foul him.

    How Fernandinho did not get a second yellow is beyond me tbh.

    Funny as **** to see city fans not understanding that they had lost to us...they looked completely non plussed
    <laugh>

    PS really sorry bout your dad mate...feel free to PM if you wanna chat <ok>

    For Grade A matches:
    Arsenal, City, United, Liverpool, West Ham, Chelsea and CL last 16 onwards
    they start at £52 and go up to £98
    Over 65s and juniors are 50% cheaper and young adults 16-18 are 25% cheaper.

    For Grade B matches the prices range from £43 to £95 with the ssme discounts as above.

    For Grade C matches the prices range from £30 to £80 with the same discounts.

    The food is much cheaper...we had pie and veggie burger and chips and a soft drink for £15. It is also good food At wembley a portion of chips and a burger was £12 and was ****!!!
    There are also free drinking fountsins and water bottle refill points.

    I aint defending the prices at all...am guessing that next year we will be only going to B and C games if we are lucky...but at least we are lucky to be both in work and can afford to go.
