I want to be in the middle of DD...........and thats nowt to do with the match

 

Archy and Mr C
It might depend on if Barnsley play 2 up front. Obviously it gives you a better chance of scoring, but Iv'e got my doubts if Barnsley will in fact play 2 upfront because if they do, City could have a lot of joy on the break. I thought Leeds were quite poor, and to be honnest, expected better from them, although the support, Iv'e got to admit was very, very good on the day.
It might depend on the first 20 mins or so, the longer it goes on without a goal, the more Barnsley will fancy their chances, and as it's the F.A. Cup..... anything can happen.
I expect a tough encounter, I remember Forest 4 years ago, came and didi a job on us, but we have a better side now. If your asking me for a prediction.....................3-1.
Mr C..... The player to watch out for is Silva.... on his day, in the top 8 midfiled players in the world, can see passes no- one else can.

 

Good to know. To be fair I'd rather we went with two up top and go for the game. None of our strikers will suit playing up front on their own, and it would mean playing out and out wingers, which we haven't done under flicker yet. Dagnall puts himself about but is too small to be a lone striker, Harewood's best days are behind him, and Scotland is yet to start for us, let alone lead the line. I think we'll go two up top and hope we can cause you trouble.

 

Archy
I live near Rochdale and know all about Dagnall having watched him play there, Perkins as well. Good players both of them. Sounds like you'll be playing 4 4 2 to me. Puts a hell of a strain on your midfield when the game gets stretched, and The Etihad is a big pitch, one of the biggest I think, and it's hard to plug the gaps.

 

Back on for a bit today..... any info ask on here

 

Any info leave in on here, try to get back to you tomoz

 

I'm watching on a big screen in the pub, how many pints do you think i'm going to need to numb the pain?

 

One less than the ones needed for the celebration

 

Typical
After not raining here for a month, the forcast is pissing down Thurs, Fri, and maybe Sat as well

 

Is The Bank of England on Pollard St (a) safe and (b) any good (in that order)? Seems to be half way between ground and Piccadilly.

 

What is your most popular forum, Tevez?

I'm going to be doing a preview of the game for my blog, and would like to connect with City supporters and get their input ahead of Saturday.

Cheers, Andy.

Best forum is Bluemoon, god knows how many members, that is the one most go on. alternatively ManCityfans.net, but not as good in my opinion.I think the guy who runs Bluemoon is called Ric. ok

Erm, not been in that one. Just been on the Manchester Pubs Website and I would probably give it a miss.
Maybe be better trying a few around Picadilly, Oldham St, etc. then get the Metro 3/4 hour before the game

 

Got my pubs sorted in Piccadilly, was hoping to break up the walk, probs won't bother, it looked grim on Google Maps ;-)

Nearer the ground from that direction is the Mitchel Arms at the bottom of the hill 1/4 mile from the ground, thats not too bad.

 

Nice one will check it out.

 

Plankton
Just remembered, The Mitchell Arms might have bouncers on the door. You should be alright if your on your own or just a couple of you. Average boozer handy for the ground. I know a few whov'e been in, and some say it's reasonable. Owned by a former City gangster, so watch yourself, know what I mean.
