Roy's View From... Pre-Match View From Man City

[Jolly Buffer]

“They have a number of big, ponderous players by our standards who can cause damage during the game, intentional or not”

Oh it'll be "intentional" alright!

 

[Mesut Özil's Lawnmower]

Good to see a Manchester fan gets it

 

[Harry's Game]

“I watched the Sheffield United game against Cardiff, and they looked good.”

No, no he didn’t watch that game


“but with such a thin squad, this is, by far, the least important fixture remaining.”

Fucking Hell !!


“I’d like to see them make it back to the Prem. Even though they were the red and white side of Sheffield, I felt in the 1980s that they were the city’s underdog club and I had more affinity with them for that reason. Add the fact that they have two of our young players on loan this season and I’d welcome them back up.”

From a real Manchester City fan

 

[Millhousesblade1889]

Actually surprised by this. Not an arrogant fan base unlike the London teams

 

[Northyorksblade]

“They’ll raise their game at Wembley”.

Yup, that’s us alright.

Have we ever? Maybe Hull.

 

[Argentinemanager]

Cheers roy, so are we playing manchester, mostly decent comments apart from him who watched us play cardiff

 

[Houston_Blade]

Someone login and ask them if they know what or where Maine Road is/was. I bet you get tumbleweed.

 

[John Street West Terrace]

Pretty much called it right in most comments

 

[shorehamview]

Feel really sorry for them with such a thin squad

The poor little lambs. They’d better hope their owner manages to find a spare half a billion down the back of the settee so Pep can go spending in summer.

 

[Gaini Blade]

Pretty fair overall, plus can't knock the ones who say they should win.
This makes it even more exciting.
It is tomorrow isn't it dad?

Only if you clean your room, And fetch my slippers.

Pre-Match View From Man City — The View From

"We better go strong for this( I have a non refundable hotel booked for the final )" "We underestimated Southampton in the league cup let's not do that with Sheffield." "I watched the Sheffield United game against Cardiff, and they looked good." "Kind of expecting Sheffield United to make this...

Cheers Roy.

No sign of Wendy infultrators on a Man City forum ?

 

[Boxer Blade]

Play the team that finished against Leicester and we'll lose.

 

[Nade]

“McAtee will suffer in a struggling team. He can only do something (with his physique at this stage) if he and the team have ball possession. Will be interesting to see where his next move is.”

That's actually a very interesting point, and probably a good argument to aim to get Doyle rather than McAtee. He can be seen as a luxury player. Not thought of that before.

Your the best Roy cheers

You are

[FATTYFOULKE]

Thought they were some of the fairest comments I’ve seen in ages and certainly not what I was expecting to read at all. Some had even done their homework on us.

On a side note when you’re a fan of a club like City, I wonder what it would take for them to get the same buzz as we would if for example we got to the fa cup final, never made mind actually winning it?

Can just imagine.. oh we’ve only won the fa cup this year, not even a double. Seriously it must spoil the enjoyment a bit, when the elation other fans get just becomes the norm.

 

[espoo blade]

"This is the biggest event in the club's history for decades".

Decades, read this week.

I'd argue that the match against Bristol was bigger than this match against Manchester.

 

[The Hobott]

Surprisingly over confident, our plan is working. Release the Fleckonater! Muh-ha-ha-hah

Absolutely. We've totally lulled them into a false sense of security by appearing to play mediocre to shit for the last forty games. They are going to feel sooo foolish when the penny drops.

 

[TimofeeVee]

Not our biggest game in the last week massive, and I hope we win.....but if someone had offered a win vs Cardiff and Bristol, or the FA Cup....league every time...!!

 

[CarlMcBlade]

I don’t like being patted on the head like this…fucking Mancs.

 

[GVBlade]

‘They looked good’
from a Man City fan

 

[Old Programme seller]

I’m sure that there’s plenty of City fans that expect to trounce us but these comments are quite level headed I’m not expecting a win just a good account of ourselves to see how much we need to improve for next season (providing we see out promotion)

 

[Davalon]

 

[Edinblade]

Oh shit, because recently me not reading the “view from” before the match has worked wonders, I can’t read this one and I bloody want to. I wish I wasn’t so superstitious, it’s bloody stupid and makes no difference whatsoever. I still won’t read until after we’ve won though

 

[bigblade]

Thanks Roy, as always mate...

Yes, always enjoy playing Manchester. And Bristol. And Notts.

Depends on the forum, I don’t know too many City fans that are up themselves - most are still the same as they were 15 years ago, just with added European travel and the upper hand over Man Utd.

Loads aren’t going because they hate getting ripped off for a day out at Wembley. My next door neighbour for one - he used to run the club lottery at Maine Road.

 

[BigBed]

Cheers Roy, I do think the Citeh fans are the better of to 2 Manc clubs, especially as I don't know any Salford fans!!!

I’m sure a lot of them are ok, I went to school with a few and they were ok, the newer ones aren’t though

 

[originaltrueblade]

The fairest comments all season


Thanks Roy

 

[Rusty view]

Decent comments. Giving us respect.

Clearly none of them are Man City fans
