    Match Thread Sunderland - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 23rd Dec

    Finding this hard to call, slightly less difficult than the last 2 but a different challenge. Not sure Beale has been there long enough to get a bounce but I think he's already said he's not going to try and change too much. We're definitely capable of winning, just can't try and be too...

    VAR again being “very thorough” as the commentator says. Fucking hell it deflected off the defender’s face onto his arm, no handball, move on. Why take a minute to decide.

    Things that annoy you

    This is where I am as an uncle to twins who are turning 2 on Christmas Eve. Bought them a top each which will do for birthday and Christmas because they'll have no idea what's going on. The 6 year old on the other hand is getting a few things.

    World Club Cup

    To copy and paste my thoughts, decent game so far. City scored within a minute but Fluminense's commitment to playing out from the back and ability to do it is incredible. Another positive for VAR with semi-automated offside tech. Potential offside before a penalty decision, very tight, took...

    Club World Cup Final - Man City v Fluminense

    Decent game so far. City scored within a minute but Fluminense's commitment to playing out from the back and ability to do it is incredible. Another positive for VAR with semi-automated offside tech. Potential offside before a penalty decision, very tight, took all of 10 seconds to check and...

    Boxing Day sell out? or are any saved for pay on the day?

    Same as the Boro play-off game when they opened these seats up, very last minute but good to see they're trying to sell everything available. Doug's probably given his brother an extra pack of crayons so he doesn't notice the advertising is missing.

    Use of VAR - audio Newcastle Arsenal

    Challenges would bring their own problems, mainly the opportunity to use them tactically. If it's the last minute, the other team is attacking and you still have a challenge then why not use it for something spurious to kill momentum and stop them taking a quick corner, free kick etc. I've no...

    Sunderland Fan In Peace

    My only rivalry with Sunderland is that one of my best mates is a fan. Will be watching the game together tomorrow then going on the annual Christmas pub crawl with some other mates, winner buys the other a drink. Draw and it's a shot each for every goal.

    Brighton fucked around at the back and found out. Nice play from Palace to score though, lovely reverse pass from Hughes.

    Boxing Day

    You'll have to physically give them the cards. I asked the ticket office if it was possible to leave mine to be collected by a friend a few games back and they said this: Unfortunately it is not, as per our season ticket terms and conditions, season tickets are for the named season ticket...

    Another impressive off the pitch signing. It's amazing feeling like we're becoming a proper club.

    Happy Johnnie Jackson Day! 20 fucking years ago, for some reason one of the most memorable atmospheres/moments as a City fan for me.

    Boxing Day

    It looks like it is, but I think the lack of communication makes it somewhat unreasonable. A few people on here have bought tickets for themselves/friends/relatives that are dotted around because that's all that was left...then found out another block has opened a day or two later with no warning.
