What do you reckon to your chances of getting top 4 again next year? Van Dijk might not come back the same player

Wouldn't have a clue Mate. Ireland didn't qualify so I lost interest months ago!

Nice they go to all that trouble.

The 'P's' had both a large scottish and welsh flag flying from their frontage. They certainly know how to back a loser, I'll give them that.

100%. Also after my performance at the euros no doubt City would offer me the job and I would then ban him from attending our games too (not that he makes many of them anyway).

He could still go to Wasps games I wouldn’t want to half the amount of paying customers they have by banning him.
Click to expand...
I’ve seen Wasps play once. European Cup Semi around 2007. I find your assumption of me being one of their fans bizarre. Whenever I want to watch Rugby I head to Twickenham or to see Coventry’s actual Rugby team play at the Butts. When it comes to City I’ve done a good few games.

I can't fathom loving England more than Coventry .
Coventry I follow all over the country, its my hometown, I live it ...

I love England but not in the same way, I think about Coventry every day ..I think about England when we play .

There’s nothing wrong with loving one more than the other or both the same.

If England win it will probably feel a bit like how it feels for a Man Utd fan from Surrey when Man Utd win something. It feels great, you celebrate like mad & party all night but ultimately you're not as closely tied to it as you are with Cov, and you don't 'feel' it quite as much. Thats how I feel anyway.
Click to expand...
I feel as tied in with my country and national teams as I do with my club and city. Nothing wrong at all with feeling the way you feel about it. Same goes for the other way. I don’t get why we all can’t accept either opinion.

The shaking of a hand is a respectable thing to do (well it was until around 15 months ago) whether you like who they work for or not. The applause on the other hand was pathetic, cringeworthy and embarrassing.

Both great players but I was talking about who I’d seen play for us. Admittedly I did forget Strachan which is poor. It probably says a lot that probably the third best Scottish player I’ve seen play for us is Telfer.

113. Hopefully we’ll bump into each other. Got my stag doo for the 4 days afterwards. Hoping for two wins to bookend it.

How the fuck do you keep getting lower tier tickets? I’ve had everything from Cat 1 to Fans First and everytime without fail I’ve been put in the upper tier!
I’m convinced the FA are looking at what tickets to give people and putting those that they consider to be scumbags or potential pitch invaders in the top tier!

Not getting into the club and country thing, I’m bored of it.

It’s hard to describe to anyone that doesn’t know but following England away and at tournaments gives the same buzz that wins away at Villa/Notts County/Man Utd away with City does. I’d encourage anyone that loves their away trips to try it before knocking

Hahahha self depreciative humour at its finest!

Those they consider to be scumbags - I meant anyone that isn’t a sticker collector or doesn’t wear a replica shirts gets shoved in top tier, out of harm’s way!

100% agree about that mate. It is a case of you can’t knock it until your try it. We were in the upper for the first 3 and 109 for Germany all in Cat 3. For one of the games up there someone was a few rows behind us and had Cat 1. It’s literally random which is very unfair imo. Based on that someone could pay 945€ and get top tier for the final!
