Why was a flag raised there? Far too tight to call with the naked eye

Lovely move though

Never offside! Get in THE VIKING!

1. "unintelligible language"
2. "ACID QUEEN"
3. "never once fails to turn a football thread into a himseelf thread"
4. "thumbs stalker often resulting in repetitive thumb strain"
5. ignore the cunt. he's on permantent wum mission. only TIDs may know City

You'd need to make a very good psychiatrist in order to guess what next in a eight yrs long line of hatred...

3 points all that matters.

Come on Fulham

2. "ACID QUEEN"
3. "never once fails to turn a football thread into a himseelf thread"
4. "thumbs stalker often resulting in repetitive thumb strain"
5. ignore the cunt. he's on permantent wum mission. only TIDs may know City

Sunderland are a very good side.

Tough game, and a good win.

Got to say Dias was fucking shocking.

Literally 1/10 performance ,he was bullied all game. The defence was all over the show because of him.

Maresca has to sort that defence out it was embarrassing at times.

Wow, been a long time since I’ve been on here. Everyone all right?

Tried to come on sometime ago, but I think the forum or site was down for a bit?

Been impressed with us so far this season, an and I was not convinced that Arsenal were the runaway favourites because there’s too many potential reasons that we could compete.

Was not honestly a fan of the Enzo signing, but I get why, and his potential for being a shit Howze player that we might have needed outside of what we can get from some others with No Bernardo of course. And his experience and maybe he wasn’t really comfortable there because their club is run like shit funny to hear us called a bigger club than them these days give him what I recall not so long ago. But you hear this from players fan ficking tastix.

I think we’ve been underrated, but that’s good.

As for today? Outside of the performance, et cetera. Want to make some comment about Sky Sports reaction to Haaland’s goal that was originally called offside.

Did anyone else notice it?

Regardless fantastic feedback on here. Hope everyone’s doing well. Been an incredible journey with Pat. Wish I had been on here a bit more the last few seasons. Yes, I post on BM. But y’all are the original home for me always. And, I’ve always appreciated everything up in here.

Sometimes I don’t know have as much time to post anyway. But glad to know this is working again

Cheers, Big Ups and Peace-aaahhhh! Come on CITY CTID

And of course, when I come back, I post 5000 words. Ha ha. At least it wasn’t 20,000?

Diaz is well aware of his own lack of pace so he alters the shape of his positioning and body, Guehi has to also then compensate, Anderson is overly aware of the dangers of Diaz’s pace and turning and so the rear centre of the team is on the back foot. It’s not optimised for how the rest of the team are set up to play. It basically results in a slow down and denial of Haalands preferred service.

Shittest thing about it is he’s club captain. Basically undroppable.

If was had Kushanov back there the whole team shape can change plus we get his pinging it ability.
