Match Day Thread Matty Fernandes Testimonial vs Kevin De Bruyne Farewell Tour, Saturday 10th May, KO 15:00

Sticking to the task well, and Rambo hasn’t had a save to make, but you can’t see us holding out like that for another 45, surely?

 

Listening on 5 Live, and the commentator thinks that Big Les committed three bookable offences, but has only been booked for one. The referee's a homer

 

I’m relatively happy with our defending in that half, but it’s sooooooo frustrating that we have absolutely nothing in terms of an out ball. Whatever their faults as strikers, Stewart or TP at least give Ramsdale something to aim at.

Matty had a little run which nearly set up a chance, most exciting thing of the half.

 

Proper attack vs defence game. As someone said earlier it's like watching a cup tie involving a minnow.

On the one hand we're restricting them quite well and I don't think they've had any proper chances. Can't keep giving KDB free kicks though the second was bollocks.

But on the other we're offering absolutely nothing and what happens when they inevitably score? Well obviously we all know the answer to that but you know what I mean.

The amount of times I've watched us hoof it up to ****ing Sulemana this season will scar me for life. I know he's **** but this is a Tall Paul game imo.

 

Just bumped into someone who said they saw Fraser and Taylor leaving the stadium before KO which is a bit odd.

 

Maybe the not606 ploy of running two parallel match threads is paying off! We now need two more parallel threads for the second half

 

He’s trying for pace on the counter, but to use that we have to actually counter.

 

Ronnie Fraser and Dennis Taylor?

 

Hopefully being called out to sign for their new clubs.

 

Yeah it's not working at all. The players in the main look absolutely petrified when we have the ball and are taking the easy option.

 

I mean I'm not grumbling at 0-0 but it's that score because City don't look that arsed.

There's absolutely no desire from our lot to even try and attack.

 

This may be the first time that I'd be happy if we end up being the last game on MoTD

 

I'm pretty sure who didn't.

 

I’d take another 45 minutes of utter dross and no goals.

I don’t have to sit through it though, granted.

 

Aribo >> Big Les

 

Doku vs Bree should be fun…

 

(For Doku).

 

Welington has a bit of a look of Ryan Bertrand about him. If he played half as well that would be nice.

 

Sitting off them far too much. It's going to cost us

 

I think it’s more that City have upped their game.
