      I am looking forward to a normal football week end again, hopefully not many teams will pick up injuries and the battle continues. I wonder what Newcastle players are thinking? I feel a bit sorry for Bruce, everybody and his dog saying he will be sacked to morrow, he must not like the thought of going to work. The guy is not THAT bad considering what he has had to work with/without

        Chuky…I would also add….it was not that long ago when working conditions here were disgraceful…with our own masters, be it Agriculture, Steel, Coal and the memories of babies under travelling Mule frames in cotton mills..less than 100 yrs ago. Then again how far do we all want to go back into slaves…Vikings, Romans? Germans tried twice and failed. We have not always been the aggressors/opportunist. Time changes everything as we are experiencing…..back to football now

            You are right Nine, we should concentrate on what happens on the field. We, as fans cannot change anything, the FA will do as they are told. If you look at the re shaped football in this country it is now in the hands of TV, betting Companies, Alcohol etc and yes Middle East, Russian, Chinese and USA investment, Like it or not, that is the status and it is not going to change any time soon……anything but local benefactors , if there are any in the UK. You have to admire the teams that get by with good management and limited resources

                Good analysis Nine. I do think that petrol stations will be keen to lift there stock levels now knowing they have a healthy price rise/profit. The sun always shines on somebody…never the motorist though!!

                  Utd v City ladies game very entertaining , thought we did well with 10 players for two thirds of the game. We are missing a lot of players, even the sub bench could not be filled but we need to start winning again

                    As long as KDB was not injured not bothered about the game. We have Ederson Jesus possibly Torres out already due to these games

                        Young Blue…there is a danger you put Tuchell on a pedestal which will mean his eventual fall will be harder for you. I am not wishing this on him, I think he is one of the best managers out there, equally I do not put Pep on a pedestal, because I know one day, things will not happen and he will go. It happens, always has, always will. Enjoy though while you can and best of luck for this season

                          Chuky, I am not defending anybody, what I am saying is your lack of facts.
                          I am also sure the working classes of UAE did not bother about my family in a 2up and 2 down, no bathroom and outside loo.and had to live through hard times…it is all relative. That is a problem of society to day, they just do not understand what went before them. I know you do a lot of banter as well, but there are people , still alive, (just) who lived through real bad times and those memories will always be with them. keep the banter going but some of us still remember what is was like.

                              Activist are self serving seekers hoping to latch on to a plumb job to keep them out of the picture. All been done before. Let us see where they are in a couple of years.The M25 lot I would use a JCB to dig them up and dump them somewhere wet

                                Chuky…I have no problems with your opinions but you also need to relate to real facts…I was brought up, lived and worked in the area where the Etihad is positioned, in fact worked just a long par 5 from the ground so I KNOW what has changed and without question for the better, Children’s Parks included!!!!! That is fact, it should not be treated as an illusion

                                    Farage is OK as politicians go, raises a lot of issues but no answers what he would do, then that is typical of all the lot of them, same for newscasters. Disgraceful what Robinson did to a Prime Minister…needs to go back to school and learn respect and good manners If you like or loathe Boris, that was disgraceful treatment of a Prime Minister. He will get his “comeuppance”. at some point and I will cheer

                                      Very true Mak, I would also add Augerro was not really a traditional striker. He was small, won few headers in box but he was incisive in the box. Roamed all over though to fit in with team but I never considered him as a traditional striker as we know but what a player.The pattern has been put down. With the current squad we have seven players capable of scoring 10goals each, some should score 15-20. Laporte, Dias and Stones should chip in as well. It is not happening at the moment but we should get better, well that is my hope I would have concluded the Kane saga much earlier and gone for the short term option

                                        Re Torres After his second he had to come off field with an injury…that is a concern. I like him as a player though

                                          Nothing unusual about selling shares Ed. We sold some to a Chinese media outfit but I think with an ulterior motive to establish themselves in China.
