    The mud monster centre forward needs more mud. Looking on the bright side, at least it wasn't on Sky.

    Personally, I think anyone reckoning he's the worse since Dolan never saw Mark Hateley set a team up <laugh><laugh>

    Firstly, it is NOT awful. It's a nice kit.

    Secondly... I don't think so <laugh>

    While agree with much of what you say, I don't know which formation you are criticising. He hasn't 'tweaked' the formation with Crowley. He's changed it - from 4-3-3 to 4-4-2. And since we changed we've looked toothless (2 goals in last 3 games, both scored by a midfielder)

    Soon as the match finished I went off and did something to take my mind off it. Which has been my default position for a City defeat since about 1975.

    Sorted out a software issue for a colleague who has being nagging me for a couple of days - then cooked a curry; seeing as you ask.

    No biggie. After we lost the FA Cup final I drove to Paris, setting off at midnight, rather than sit there thinking about how we were two nil up and managed to **** it up.


    So...

    Given that I don't handle defeat well, here's my current thinking.


    We won't get automatic promotion now. That ship's sailed. It's gone. Like the possibility of me getting asked my age in the Supermarket when purchasing alcohol. It ain't gonna be happening again, Ernie. It's gone. No matter if you tuck a skateboard under your arm and neglect to tie up your laces, no one's gonna be fooled anymore.

    We ain't got enough up top. (A bit like Emma Watson or Ariana Grande, but at least they could afford to do something about it if they so chose). K L-P is cutting a frustrated figure at the moment. He has strengths, but we're not playing to them. In actual fact we appear to be playing to his weaknesses.

    If a player is having personal problems then fair enough. I don't wanna know. It's personal ffs. However, I want the manager to manage that situation empathetically and responsibly. That doesn't include using it as an excuse for defeat. That's an utter ****'s trick.

    Whilst your first response may or may not be correct about the kit being awful, your second fully justified my opinion that is.

    We were horrible on the eye in every way today.

    To be fair you have a valid point.

    There's scumwads everywhere, looking at the HDM report on those three it's about the 25 criminals locked up in Hull in January. The very first story is about a wonderful chap, Scott Watson, 31, who was arrested for shoplifting Lego and makeup from Tesco in Bridlington. When police searched him they found a knife in his pocket and a blister pack (I bet it was!) of 22 Pregbalin tablets stuffed up his anus. In complete fairness his address was given as Scarborough , perhaps it's the sea air. :emoticon-0135-makeu

    I would bet he moved to Scarborough from a city miles away, Brid is infested with them.

    Someone asked earlier “who’d we’d prefer to leave, terry or Ehab.
    I never thought I’d want anyone to leave more than Ehab but I now do.
    Although of Ehab left, new owners would surley sack terry

    To me Mike Smith was some sort of genius. He had to be to get a team relegated and leave it in a mess when you look at the players he had at his disposal.

    Talking of Mark Hateley, what happened to superman Angie Rowe?

    That's what clinches it for me. New owners would hopefully mean a fresh, positive outlook for the club because right now, even when we do play well and win games, the relationship between the fans and the club is toxic. New owners, new manager, new start to get the best out of the players.
