Match Thread Away vs Oldham 12th dec

I bet DMH's mum is furious. She's going to have to knit some extensions on his gloves.

 

Why oh why do I do this to myself?

Only gone and forked out again to watch on ifollow.

Going to need alcohol this afternoon methinks.

 

Agee totally Idlebantam Paudies comments are modern day footballers views. Thy need to get out there a do it get stuck in . Do it today we could climb up the league with a win .
I’m rather motivated must be after watching Nigella at lunchtime.

Cmon City onwards and upwards.

 

Novak and Evans aren’t the problem or solution. It’s 90% of the tripe that’s behind them which is our issue. Even if Novak or Evans were in the starting XI, it leaves another 9 in our unbalanced dire squad leaving us to predictably fall over. Out of that 9, there’s a case that 4, 5 at an almighty push (and I’m been very kind) that are good enough to be in a League 2 starting XI. That means we have at the very least 4 players (36% of our starting team) every game which shouldn’t be playing at this level.

Add to that injuries and an incapable management team, positive results with this team are a huge uphill battle.

Our management team or players cannot make us hard to beat so I’ve zero hope of getting anything from any of our games until major additions are made in Jan.

 

Who is going to want to join city in january .

 

Me too.My whole being is saying why even bother.Nothing is changing week after week.Cant defend,no goal threat,limp midfield, better when Guthrie is back blah.blah.blah.Yet I know at 2.45 my hand will develop a mind of its own, and unable to do anything about it i will reach out for my wallet take out the card and spend 10 fecking quid on this shower.I will feel dirty and ashamed for a couple of hours but justify it by hoping against all hope that this is the week that they decide to do a half decent impression of a football team and we scrape a 0 0 draw.Being a football fan does strange things to you.And to put the top hat on it I’m tee total so don’t have the alcohol to numb the pain that will inevitably follow as sure as night follows day.

 

That’s the big question for our super duper recruiter (championship manager).

**note - I’ve never been so negative than I am right now about this club. I really hope in 4-5 months I’m on here waxing lyrical about great we are with people reminding me how I’ve changed my tune. However i predict the only thing to be positive about will be avoiding relegation by the skin of our teeth, and I’m not so confident of that right now**

Two Austin Samuel's? Starting with 12 players?

 

Would it make a difference?

 

Copied it from the City website.

All going well at the club isn't it. Can't even get that right.

Samuel is just on the bench

 

Novak rushed back I see

 

Seems as if Stuart's near to putting out his best line up, so let's see how he gets the best from them today.

 

And based on how this season has gone he will limp off after 35mins

 

No. DMH at all. Looks like we’re playing for a draw.

 

No Danny Rowe for Oldham is a big plus.

 

Mum not finished the gloves

 

He's got a note from his mum. She hasn't finished knitting his longer gloves that he needs now Kenny has told him he needs to roll his sleeves up.
