I turned down a job worth £250 for the day so I could go and watch the City on Saturday, so they had better win or else!!! :slap:

And they could as easily be a Callum Ball as much as a Dominic Samuel.

Unless it's actually Dominic Samuel.
We'd love that!

Yeah, I am this season. Unusual for me...historically I've been one of the positive ones on here. Your point about the team being better than last season...we've got rid of dead wood, I'm happy with that. But there's nothing to say Ricketts won't be another Webster or Vincelot another JoB. I might be wrong but haven't we had more go out than come in/step up? I know we're not done yet but even if we bring a couple more in...a few suspensions/injuries and our squad looks weak.
TM has more experience than SP which will be massive. But we're very lightweight up top...I'm struggling to see where the goals are going to come from. Hopefully this lad from Newcastle will stick a few away.
I think years of disappointment have meant I've realigned my expectations, that's all. If we do well, there'll be more to cheer than commiserate.
Tell you what, you wear a black armband on Saturday and I will see if I can spot you.
Will you have your head bowed too?
Yes of course I think we can win on Saturday easily. Now will someone please remove this white jacket so I can type my own posts.

Are we not allowed to show concern about our result in Saturday now??

We're going to spend our time stalking something unobtainable, before realising it was the villain in control all along?
People saying the squad isn't different to last year...perhaps not but we have a much better manager now. A better structure and a better organisation about us. I feel like the players will give their all for Mowbray. Having said that Wigan will be a tough game. 1-0 either way. I'd just like to see a good performance, something I haven't seen at the Ricoh since...um...yeah.
We were never going to get 8 plus quality players in on our budget. It was always going to be 4-5 signings and then about 3 loans. It is not just about the new faces it is about the existing ones improving. Throw in injuries, suspensions, dips in form and 10-12th will be good progress. Get the momentum going at the right time and we might have an outside chance of play offs.
Wigan? Every game can be won. It is the consistently winning that is the difficult one to achieve. Wigan have had 13 through the door, their pre season has been as inspiring as ours. I predict a patchy game, lots of huff and puff but 0-0.

Our (Wigan's) massive turn around in players (quality out, cheap in) will see us going through a transition period for quite a few months. I think Saturday will be a big wake up call for those Latics fans who think we will be dominant this season, we are no where near that. 1:0 to ccfc but most of you will miss the late winner having fallen asleep watching our insipid tippy tappy style of play. Don't try to count the number of defensive cock ups we make trying to pass the ball about, even Bolton fans don't have enough fingers for that
If you want defensive mistakes...that's the one area we will out perform you!

Of course we can win, we just need to get a couple of lucky bounces and take our chances..... I'm going for 1-0 city
Anything can happen first day of the season. Relegated teams are still recovering from the shock, teams can be especially pumped up that day.
I'd be a lot happier if we had a bit more cutting edge. But I reckon a cheeky 2-1 isn't out of the question.
