3-1.

They just said the fan has been stabilised on the way to hospital. Good to hear.

Next 10 or so hours will be vital. :/ bringing up some not so nice memories for me

 

[Trusty]

City did in the old 2nd division strange that they cannot fill the stadium now though

err i think they are filling it. isn't the Etihad like 50k capacity?

 

[the wopster]

Considering our manager is an ex defender, we literally can’t defend for ****

I thought they were giving tickets to local schools etc.

Need Sir Gareth in, he’d sort that out for you

Did Bruce even defend? Think he spent most of his time attacking. Has a pretty insane goal per game ratio for UTD

Watching Newcastle is like watching old people ****

Too easy for Spurs.

Too easy for Spurs.

We are currently the perfect team to play for anyone that’s on a bad run, we don’t have a clue defensively, we don’t press the ball and don’t know how to attack any more, Bruce’s whole game plan is give it to ASM and hope he produces some magic, hopefully this is the last time we see this dinosaur in the dugout

You know how Mike Ashley and sports direct are for refunds

I agree that Bruce is a poor manager but surely due to the lack of investment he's not done too bad, c'mon your team is really really poor and the phrase "you can't polish a turd" is more than apt.

I'm looking at this and unless your new owners are going to appoint a massive named manager and throw £200m per transfer window it's not going to be success for many a year as you'd need 5 or 6 players every window to build up both a 1st team and some depth as well as investing in both the training and match day facilities.

 

[Maundie]

Shelvey really is a headless chicken

 

[Pigeon_Killer]

Shelvey's a terrible footballer. His first tackle was just him losing his head again and his second was poor positioning.

 

[omnomnom]

Shelveys an absolute moron.

Exactly. What on earth do you want someone to do with Joelinton up front.

 

[BaZ87]

Shelvey lost his head there.

 

[Bigpig]

Worst case here we won the game and they give Bruce more time.

Bruce looks as if he knows his time is up.

 

[omnomnom]

3-2 own goal.

Spurs surely cant bottle this?

 

[montymint]

Shelvey lost his head there.

Unsurprising, he’s a terrible footballer

I hope so.
