    Oh Boy, they are on an absolute downer. Despite new CEO, Nicky Butt, saying they made mistakes with previous managers there is an element of desperation now with failure to achieve the promtions they were anticipating when they got in L2. Looking at the latest interview Butt appears to have accepted they won't do it this season either so perhaps another change of Manager looming.
    To get a little bit back from Saturday and the fact we have no game this week, strongest team and give them a doing.

    It's seem strange a City match thread as the World Cup gets into swing and off to a good start.

    And even if it's a 'tin pot cup' winning any cup is good for the players and good for the fans as well.

    This Smallwood Gilliead pairing being unbreakable is pissing me off a bit now

    Would have liked to have seen East get a game, other than that looks a decent line up.

    If Young can't get a game tonight then he ain't in Hughes plans. A move would be advantageous for both parties.

    Far to direct for Hughes liking. Running at defenders instead of passing back. Shame as his goal record ain't bad

    Thats Chapman in a nutshell. Moments of championship quality play followed by a pass that i'd be disappointed with on a Thursday night. Has to be better.

    Have you taken in to account their pitch might be a different width to ours?

    Been watching both games but it’s telling my eyes keep going to the World Cup game as everytime I look at my laptop my eyes nearly shut. Both have teams have been crap, but for the goal.

    The midfield needs freshening up imo, and we need Critchow back as Songo’o can’t pass it out of the back which is shocking for a supposed midfielder.

    We look leggy as Jones said as well which is really poor but not surprising as a number of times this season the players have looked knackered late in games. Fitness is something we’ve failed at since Parky left.

    The players and management need to take the next 10 days to take a look at themselves and look to improve.
