Look on at the ticket sales for this they are absolutely pathetic.

People need to have a good look in the mirror if they call themselves city fans and choose to sit at home and watch it in their Firestick. They will be the same ones moaning they can’t get a ticket when we are in the premier league.

Two home games in a row, we really should try and cement our position, but tricky they could be. Southampton are flying after a win in the cup.
We can afford to stumble on one of these but prefer we didn't. We have a relatively easy run in compared to our challengers.
We surely have enough for Preston and Southampton will be our last big test, which will rely on tactics and team selection being right.

This game is made for Onyeka. They will be very physical and will sit back waiting to hit us on the break.
not what in saying. Onyenka has been rly good. I have no doubt our chances improve now we have him

I'm just saying we can win games without him that's all. I would like him to start the game too

Hull not a big test? Or Wrexham? Considering we didn't beat either of them and both have a lot to play for.

A tough game given our players out. Hope we can be up for it from the off and settle quickly, don't want a poor first half job.
The mental side is massive now Middlesbrough will be on a real positive we need to keep winning, a loss ups the pressure exponentially.

Looking forward to this, i expect a win and then we have a single digit amount of games left with the gap, at worst, what it is now.

If the last few games are anything to go by against Preston we will be in for a frustrating afternnon. Low block, eleven behind the ball and lots of time wasting trying to get a point. We usually struggle to break them down and have no Rudi to carry the ball so thinking a nervy 1-0 win with a last minute goal. Could be a good game to try Esse at number 10 to provide that spark to break them down

Far from a must win, but a win here would be fantastic.
Yep. Although Preston have been a bogey team, they are in bad form and we are strong at home. A win here going into a tricky Soton game would be lovely.

Southampton have 3 away games in 6 days so that could really help us.

The wife's getting her hair done on Wednesday afternoon. If she's done in time and get get our daughter from nursery, I'm thinking of coming up from Pompey for it.

If there's still tickets left, reckon I'll be able to pay on the gate/ticket office?
