Phew thank God for that. Clearly had my leg pulled

If collin If Collins and jds are in I the odds are greatly increased that I will

I am ridiculously optimistic that this can be a comfortable won if we repeat the first half performance against PNE. Suspect I might regret this....

I suspect Bristol might sneak in. So Leeds & Sheffield, followed by Burnley, Sunderland, Sky Blues and Bristol City. But I don't think we will be promoted - Burnley the most likely

Won't every club be using the same ticket managing platform? The cross matching would be easy; wouldn't even need the address. I live near Oxford and assumed had I bought a home end ticket my address would look kosher, but it looks like I would have been caught by a cross matching exercise. I...

Life is not black and white. I will be pleased for City but it will be tinged with sadness. Tinged is the key word here

On Saturday week I will hold two ideas completely in conflict with one another. I want City to win and I don't want Mark Robins to lose. Ultimately the desire for City to win will prevail, but tinged with sadness. Mark Robins got me back into being an active rather than passive City supporter...

Some of those corners from the right by Rudoni are things of beauty. They have a high arc and seem to dip at the end. Goalkeeper's nightmare.

You obviously missed the string of misplaced passes and woeful free kick but hey ho

...also Paterson looked off the pace, but early doors

Eccles had an absolute stinker. A string of badly weighted passes, crap free kick, missed opportunities to keep momentum going. It just got worse and worse. Should have been pulled for Allen a lot lot sooner

I said this on the match thread. The Preston front man gave our central pairing real problems in the second half and a better team may have scored more than once. It was a bit like Leeds and Ipswich but fortunately PNE were not as good

First half was the best performance of the season - much quicker transition from defence to attack which previously had been very laboured. This was mainly, but not exclusively, down to Grimes. Rudoni continues to look so good and Simms scared them witless for the first hour Three 'buts'...

When Rudoni hits those high looping corners, time seems to stand still. They are not the usual 'whipped in' corners but are absolutely murderous for a defence. Can he give Eccles some lessons in dead ball kicking?

...which is why, if he is unfit (which was the context of the comment) and Da Silva plays, it has to be 5 at the back. Four including Da Silva and an uncertain EMC would be suicidal imho

...much as I love EMC, he's not the world's most alert player or good at tracking back

Given that it is all about money, here is one way of looking at it London: (7) Arsenal, Brentford, Chelsea, Crystal Palace, Fulham, Spurs, West Ham Large Cities: (6) Aston Villa, Everton, Liverpool, Manchester City, Manchester United, Newcastle Small Cities: (7) Bournemouth, Brighton...

Oh no, the dreaded manager 'vote of confidence'.....you know what comes next!

Beadle gifted it to us

If we had not scored two very late goals, one highly fortuitously, City would be 13th, and we would be saying that Lampard had done an ok job so far, but nothing to write home about #finemargins
