***city v swans official match thread***

[Nigels Tackle]

won't be as easy as the papers are making out this morning
swansea have injuries but they can still pose a threat
a hard fought 3-1 for me
come on city!

[Peter Doherty (AGAIG)]

Patience could be the key today. I reckon they'll be more cautious than they normally are whilst still providing a threat up front. 2-0 to the mighty blues for me.

Ok have virgin and can't seem to find the game on either sky sports or bt . What the fuck is this shit, you pay all this money and its not even shown on a Sunday. Fair enough if its sat but its a Sunday

It's not shown because this was originally a 3pm Saturday kick off and later moved due to Swansea's involvement in the Europe.
BT don't have the rights to show Sunday games.
And Sky are already showing 3 games today. We can't be on every week.

So if they don't have the rights to Sunday games, how come are they doin Spurs V Scum?

Hhaaaa no worries mate! I got my BT package upgraded a couple of weeks ago and thought the same as you. Was suprised to see that it's on there today. There's a couple more decent games on soon including our matches against Gooners and Scousers:o)

Yeah thought they were limited to Saturday 12-45 kick offs!

[Ryan95]

Any decent rivers for todays match?

[AG7]

Take it easy people ... Spurs v Scum was a Sat 12:45 kickoff and had to move to Sunday due to Spurs being in the Europa League ...

We were Sat 3pm ... and yes, you guessed it right, due to Swans being in Europa on Thu had to be moved to a Sunday.

Now that instead of two Sunday games there are three on TV so the kick off times changed to 12:00 - 14:05 and 16:10 ... we simply chose the late slot for our kickoff.

Now lighten up all ... the day we break the goal scoring record in a game is not too far away! It might be 10 today ...

Ok we're brilliant at home but let's not get complacent/ahead of ourselves.

But what's the record & what should we so to break it?

2 teams have scored 9 in Prem league. Rags v Ipswich & Spuds v Wigan. Dippers also got 9 v Palace in 89 i think but that was in old Division 1. Plenty of instances of 10 in a game in old division 1 but none since the 60s.

I truly believe we are capable of doing this. Doubt it will be v Swansea but another spanking like Norwich or Spuds is round the corner

Very nice and although I don't think it will be a big factor in this game it'll be nice to see how Demi and Lescott get on.

[mr_nool]

Had hoped Silva would be back for this one, but we should have enough fire power without him. I hope both Samir and Jesus play as well as against Spurs.

Good - More or less the strongest available team. I personally would've played Kolarov today but hey ho.

COME ON CITY!! Let's make sure we keep the pressure on Arse

we'll keep you updated with the action when you take your time getting back from a halftime pint then.

With other results going well for us it feels very likely we are going to fuck this opportunity again too. We are good enough not to though and at home, so fingers crossed and touch lots of wood that we can get through comfortably today..
