a lunchtime kick off against markuse's stoke at the brittania for the lads today.

live on bt sports so we'll have to endure owen and hoddle for 90 minutes.

martin atkinson is today's man in the middle - could be worse...

no yaya, serge or vk from the old spine but joe and merlin should be back which is great news.

will be a tough game but i'm expecting a 2-1 win with the opener coming off the otter's head from a corner in the 26th minute.

come on city!

let's fuck these cunts up!!!

I'm not looking forward to this , don't really know why but I have a bad feeling , hope I'm wrong !

Come On City !

4-1 to us again

I just couldn't stand being beaten today by a side managed by Agent Clueless and his bunch of Welsh sidekicks.
I'll take a draw right now.

Me too.
This weather isn't gonna make it any easier. Never like The Britannia.

Given this has been a week of me getting things wrong, but didn't Kun say that the knock he got last week was nothing and he was fine?

The famous Brisbane Blues are having their Xmas knees up tonight. Woohoo!

If there was one bunch of Neanderthal cunts you wouldn't want the Merlin in to face, it's these fuckers. Personally I wouldnt start him, I'd wait until Pieters or shawcross get sent off (assuming the ref does his job proper this will moreover than likely happen) then bring him on then.

Yes he did. Makes you wonder if players are being rested/not risked for Europe

I can understand him not playing in midweek, it was a league cup match and he shouldn't be playing them until the semis anyway. But to rest him in the league in order for him to be okay for Gladbach at home? That makes no sense.

With any luck this could be a start for Ian, but that wouldn't really be Pellers style would it?

City XI: Hart, Sagna, Otamendi, Demichelis, Kolarov, De Bruyne, Fernando, Fernandinho, Silva, Sterling, Bony #stokevcity #mcfc

Team should be out any minute...

Really need the win today.

Stoke, wind, The Britannia, horrible.

No delph?

Subs: Caballero, Navas, Kelechi, Delph, Garcia, Clichy, Hunphreys #stokevcity #mcfc

i think hes fucking stupid not starting delph. deserves to be in there

We should have an extra body in centre mid for this. Can't help but think the Ferns will be left exposed. I would have had Delph in there too and left Sterling on the bench.

I was thinking the same.
We can bring Sterling on 2nd half.
Just don't think Sterling and De Brown offer enough getting back. Hopefully they both prove me wrong!
