He says it's important we win. A cautious approach , keep Villa at bay for 45 minutes ,gradually take a hold in the game and then score the winner with 5 minutes to go:) I'll take it.
now where have I heard that one, before?
This one could be sheer torture to watch.
Villa games are never high on my list of 'must-see TV'
I dont think I will be able to hold out if he sets his team out like that again. Honestly, I think I will get thrown out of the family stand tomorrow if he does that. A ban would hopefully stop my silly urge to get a season ticket to watch any more of it.
Please, I implore Manchester City, dont fucking do it to me.
I think by 450 tomorrow, I will be heartily glad I can't make it to the spurs game, and will be sat in a bar in Portugal pissed up instead. When it came to booking a short break the other day, I just couldnt see why I would want to go to the spuds game after some of the negative shit we keep seeing against decent sides.
I have never, ever been so bereft of confidence before a run of games.
Fuckin ell John. You're a bundle of joy aren't you? Cue huge sigh of relief from the family stand when they find out ;)
As is our lot as city fans, we go to the match in hope. That is all I have, I am struggling to find any expectation after the way we setup at Arsenal - like I have seen you post, a defeat there would have left us in no worse position, there was simply no excuse for not trying to win the game - just as we have with every other decent side we have come across.
Since about Feb, before every match someone from the club is wheeled out saying we have 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 cup finals left and we are up for the challenge. I have no doubt we have the players to take the points we need, i am just scared to death we will turn out a turgid performance yet again, because we cant keep fucking up our cup finals.
As for the spuds match, as much as it pisses me off, i'll miss not being there, the very reason why I have to renew every year - the bastards have got me by the balls!
