Fucking ell. Was hoping for Weiss. Hopefully bring him on.
I wouldn't have playing Robson though. They're just gonna try and kick the fuck out of him! Maybe start with Bellamy instead.

Hopefully get a few early goals so we can take the big boys off.

Absofuclinlutely NO excuse tonight! Les has to start proving he IS the gaffer and this is the ideal opportunity - thereĀ“s never an easy tie but fresh and early in the season we should demonstrate the chasm in class

Loving the line up tonight and can't for this. Streams have been doing my head in this season and this feels like a treat. 8 of our next 11 are televised which is superb for me.

As a side note, I wonder how long before De Jong starts getting twitchy? World cup year. I've been off line all week so if he's injured, fair do's.

Appointing some guy with 2 man city games under his belt as captain is a joke.

I also hope Lescott has a shocker, an OG and sending off would be nice.

Nah, I just can't stand Lescott. He's a giant cunt and not good enough for City's ambition. Does anyone really think you could win the league or even crack the top 4 with Lescott, Richards and Bridge in your backline? Mid table players in my opinion.

Sylvinho's international clearance was not completed in time, so he can't play. He will need a work permit, where as players from Birmingham don't need one for some strange reason

Here's a revolutionary idea for you. How about waiting until he plays for us before slagging him off?
