Alluded to it before, this just doesn’t feel quite right to me and I say that as someone who thinks a trump presidency is bad for the world

Agreed. Looks like Kings trying to get the club on sustainable footing so if we don’t get promoted, we have the ability to sell players for decent money to reinvest in the team/squad. SISU started with this model before the financial crisis but soon stopped reinvesting and moved to the ‘let’s...

Also it’s half a story. For example, do we know what cash he wanted and are there other players out there that we rate higher that might be coming available

Two of my best mates went to grammar school and they both think it made a huge difference in their lives as neither is from wealthy families (one was from a single parent family). I was local comp but lucky it was a decent enough area. I’ve always liked the idea of grammar schools for kids from...

Agreed. All the chances fell to Wright on Friday and if I’m being overly critical he probably should’ve had another goal really. Simms was feeding scraps but he’ll just get on with his job, which is usually occupying both CBs, do the dirty work and hope next time some of the chances come his way.

As you say, the guys just class. Said on another thread that was as complete a performance as I’ve seen from him (and we’ll probably see from any City player this season), yet what’s he doing during the sky interview…saying that Wright should have MoTM award not him Got to keep both during...

Yeah, people really need to watch the first half again, he played some quality balls. Even second half he did some good stuff/dirty work, just tired a bit as game went on. Rudoni was excellent first half but not as effective second, Oxford were making it harder for us and players aren’t fully up...

Binks is really coming along well, great long passing range, similar to Doyle a couple of seasons back. I still think Kitching and Thomas last season (before Kitchings red cards) was the best CB partnership we’ve had recently though. Still reckon it might be but both need deliver at that level...

A shit border policy, Ukraine refugees and people gaming the system (low pay visas and student visas). Crazy that the Tories oversaw system allowing students to bring dependents and people earning £18.5k could also bring spouses I’d imagine the numbers will settle down a bit now but appalling...

Had the match on in the background this morning to see if I’d missed much live. His delivery was so much better last night. As others have said, it’s the best game he’s played in a city shirt and one of the most complete performances I’ve seen from a city player in a long time. Immense Really...

Yeah, the Torp thing is weird. Played some great balls, something like 89% pass completion and worked hard. Also made a last ditch tackle when they broke at 2-2 after their forward had barged Lati over - ignore seen it on tv and it was Eccles !! People don’t see that though, they ignore the...

Im all for workers rights and making sure people aren’t mistreated but some of the below were hardly ‘workhouse rules’ and may actually make the whole service run better https://media.raildeliverygroup.com/news/the-rail-industry-makes-offer-to-aslef-to-drive-up-performance-for-passengers

Current year and likely future for train divers. I’ve actually got no issue with the pay rises themselves but not to put a couple of conditions/pre conditions in is unwise

Or an alternative version…. Labour: our spending plans rely on growth and we shouldn’t have to raise taxes Economy: grows strongly for two quarters and inflation back to normalish leading to BoE rate cut Labour: we’ve inherited a big financial hole we didn’t know about so will have to cut...

Spot on. This happens time and again with players moving to different countries and leagues, especially if there’s a step up in quality and intensity of the league. Might be wrong but pretty sure Henry was the same. You can imagine in any walk of life you move country, start in a new workplace...

Missing sheaf obviously but I see the combination of players picked /formation as the issue in first couple of games Last night having Torp and palmer both playing with a front three inc Taveres meant we were getting overrun. Against Stoke, without Eccles or sheaf nobody screened the defence...

Thought he’s had a really good game

Got to be honest, was wondering why palmer was still on, especially left wing, but decent enough ball for goal

Finish that

Torp puts in a decent corner to be fair
