Pandur's the best goalkeeper we've had in years, since McGregor at least. Better than Allsop, Darlow, Baxter, Ingram, Long and Marshall.
Does anyone else have the worst luck with midweek fixtures? If I’m free on the Wednesday we play on the Tuesday, and if I’m free on the Tuesday we play on the Wednesday. In fact I don’t think I’ve managed to watch a full uninterrupted 90 minutes since New Year’s Day
As much as I like Pandur, I miss McGregor the mad bastard. Love characters in football especially ones who shagged multiple birds a night had a mistake in him but he was a brilliant keeper.
He's still a young keeper though, and it's surely easier to improve those parts of his game than any other. It's his assuredness I love, he oozes stability. I can't imagine that there are many keepers that our back-line would want instead. First name on the team-sheet for me.
Well said. I’m delighted Pandur has picked up, he had a pretty poor game against Leeds but has been rejuvenated since Rushworth rushed off. CIty’s number one!
Definitely, I was thinking about it earlier and I couldn't think of anyone post McGregor that was as good. If I was the club, I'd be discussing a long term deal with him as with his age and room for development, he could be a #1 for a long time
This really would be a big one to win, however it’s likewise for them, just had a good trip Sunderland now a long journey here, I would be very happy with a point, they also no the importance of it as much as we do. Fingers crossed we can do it, Will he bring fresh legs in or stick with the same side?
Best way. One of the worst things about watching City (for me) is that as soon as we take the lead (if/when obv) I wish the entire game away and want full time immediately. Saturday, for instance, was torture despite them not even threatening much. Apart from the rare cruise control match, I think I enjoy football more in retrospect. Sad but true.
I'm starting to feel like I've stepped back into the 80's on some of these threads. Phrases like 'chuck her' and jokes about corner shops and the like are totally throwing me!
i used to love midweek games, now they just get in the way of whatever series im watching, inconvenient!
Yes here its a 12:45 kickoff. Right at the start of the afternoon wind activity (which i am not going to miss City or no City). I see the first 15 mins and then head to the water. I try to record the game but am never successfull
