I’ve no idea if the people who started, or were singing, the “Sh* Sakamoto” song intended it to come out as racist. But it sounded awful to me. The Latibeaudiere chant is awful, playing up to lazy racist tropes. Watch the Linford Christie documentary and see how this sh*t affected him. Seeing...

The video accompanying the “launch”, with obligatory Gary Neville voiceover, is nauseating in the extreme. Honestly, people from Manchester have such self-inflated worth about their overrated city. There’s no real centre to it, appalling train stations, even worse airport and grating accent.

Yeah, I heard “YGSITM” break out around me in 14. Died down pretty quickly, thankfully.

Oxford’s keeper much better than last week!

Is one of the sponsors flashing up on the Norwich boards really saying “Farming Simulator” or have I had too many glasses of wine?

Oh well, there you go

Hoping that Oxford get something out if this tonight, although Sargent/ Sainz will probably enough for a Norwich win.

There used to be a load of teenage girls with Man U scarves attend the games at the height of Ryan Giggs/ David Beckham mania. Although they could have been there for Oggy, who knows 🤷‍♂️

I still think this is the best penalty ever. WARNING: Contains Andy Gray

Whilst they can be misleading, the stats from that game point to an absolute honk fest.

Boro winning, shame. Let’s hope Stoke can keep holding Watford.

Ha ha, I can remember “It’s for Life”! now. That was the game where Allen Boksic ran through us at will, I think? Almost as bad an opening day as the Forest embarrassment a few years before.

“They went woke” “Shit vegan food” “Vegan, climate alarmist insanity” All we need now is a “Pepe The Frog” meme!

Always wear a shirt at Glastonbury on the Thursday. Get more than a few “Sky Blue Armies” shouted at me. Also have decent conversations with fans of similarly sh*t clubs - lovely Oxford fellas a few years back and a tripping Carlisle fan last year, who was surprisingly lucid on his teams’ fortunes.

Re: When I moved to Cheltenham in the 1990s, I went into a chippy and asked for a “chip batch”. Blank looks from behind the counter. They pointed me towards the menu - apparently I should’ve asked for a “Breaded bun with chips”. Assumed this wasn’t the place that did “Faggot and Pea batches”...

I’ve done it a few times (Sheff Wed/ Watford/ Crystal Palace), but the one that sticks out the most was Villa in the FA Cup in 1998. In the Holte End. Sat on my hands when Moldovan scored and then, to let out pent-up emotion, started berating the Villa players with my fellow Holte-enders...

Give everything a good old clean and, as others have said, get rid of the remnants of the W**** signage. I’ve always hated the “brickwork” that surrounds the ground - but don’t suppose that’s coming down soon. Concourses and inside the ground doesn’t look too bad, to be fair.

Dion Dublin, for me, is strangely underrated. Villa move soured the memory for a lot of people, including myself at the time. Imagine having a player like that now - goalscorer, leader and more than capable CD? Robbie Keane seems to have this exalted status based on 13 PL goals and never being...

Stewart Robson, whilst having a worse games per year ratio than Dean Emerson, was one of the best midfielders I’ve seen in my time watching City and doesn’t get mentioned much.
