Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world........

Fantastic film to be honest, often dismissed because of the age.

And the city, I think, had a population of about 20,000 in 1900. Bit of a modern monstrosity today, most populous in Morocco. 3.2 million. 8800 per square Kilometer apparently. Most famous surely today because that little waiter/cleaner bloke in Good Ship Murder comes from there!

Ill be watching, but will be major pissed off if the new lads do not start. I dont want to see Gundo, Silva or that many of the others to be honest.

Isn't Bernardo Silva the captain?

Be interesting to see if we just treat it as a run out for everyone or, as I suspect, something to be won!

Buzzing for this actually. Getting my daughter earlier from after school club so she can watch it. Her tickets for England women's have arrived as well so will give her those and watch the blues smash some random team.

Come on City!!

In fact, the presenter has just mentioned "two giants" getting started today, "Manchester City and Real Madrid"..
Wouldn't call RM giants, myself :lol:

Is it the regulation 5 subs permitted? Or is it treated as a friendly and unlimited subs are allowed :lol:
