RB has ruled out John Terry, Frank Lampard and Daniel Sturridge from our game tomorrow.

 

[Cosimo]

What happens with existing Saturday fixtures when you're in the Europa League, do they get put back to Sundays?

Yes, they do. Have you given up hope already?

 

[Cosimo]

Strong side from City.

Mancini said they are aiming for the Europa League.

 

[Cosimo]

They don't seem to like Mario. Has he upset someone?

 

[Cosimo]

Can we do some defensive training at some point this season?

Don't you get that at weekends?

 

[Cosimo]

Ahh well at least we haven't got the honour of being CL holders going out in the group stages

Well you do have the honour of never having won it and we're not out yet.

 

[Cosimo]

Am chuckling inside at the thought that this could be the arsenal of the next 10 years. Awesome.

Is that just playing badly or not being in Europe?

 

[Cosimo]

Eh? We're still second in the group and what, 5 points off third in the league?

I'm talking about next season onwards and you'll be knocked out in the next round.

 

[Cosimo]

Gone with £20 on Shakhtar and Spartak. Come on!

Good Luck

 

[Cosimo]

Chelsea are gash in the league, are they any good in this champions lark?

We'll win tonight if you are betting. I'll wave to you at half time.

 

[Cosimo]

Draw on Friday?

On the Thursday 20th.

Europa League Final 2013 ticket lottery is now open:

[Cosimo]

Any idea if there is any club allocation?

Far too early for that. This is just the individual lottery.

 

[Cosimo]

Yeah I mean as in, is there actually any at all given to fans of the teams based on what games they've been to see or still too early?

I would expect so but too early for that as well.
