I would had gone with Bubblegum. He is fast and can create a lot of spaces for us tonight.

[stevefromdonny]

sane, silva and delph need to have a bit of time off back for the hammers

Ha ha couldn't see the wood for the trees......

[sheblue]

Sane not even on the bench.

[stevefromdonny]

COME ON CITY Lets get 3pts and a few goals please

[blues2win]

Actually Sane not on the bench. Injured? Would have liked to see Danilo instead of Walker. Maybe against West Ham. Gundogan stronger defensively than Silva.

[nottsblue]

Just need Aguero and Jesus to rip the Saints back three a new one with able support from Sterling and KDB.

Interesting there's no room for Yaya on the bench

[Piccsnumberoneblue]

We always miss Silva

[Sideshow Bob]

cutemancs opposing fan comments included a mention of sane being unfit for this match. no details though.

[london blue 2]

Pep is a joker. The other day I read him saying Silva never misses and game, then he drops him.

Add to that the story that Jesus and aguero won't start together without shark boy.

Wind up merchant is our pep

He likes to keep the other plonkers guessing.

City watch tweeting Sane is injured but not thought to be too serious....

We need him back for the derby!!!

[Saul Goodman]

Solid enough lineup. Surprised Danilo didnt get a start to give Walker a rest

[Justified logic]

All pints are £2.50 in the ground early doors. I think I will.take advantage and might wear two scarves tonight as it's brass monkey weather.

Does anyone ever tie scarves to their wrist anymore or was that an 80s bay city rollers craze?

You old fucler. We used to do that when we were kids on the Kippax!!!

Haha, this might be a notion that's alien to the younger generation. Wrist? Scarf? Wtf? Why would you do that?

And why on earth would there ever be a Bay City Rollers craze?

Bay city rollers fans used to wear their scarves on their wrists like they they were a cult. Mainly girls of course. However I remember when I went to the match in the 80s I used to tie mine on my wrist.

Edit: my city scarf... I have never owned a bay city rollers scarf, however my sister did.

If I could be arsed I'd load a late 70's photo of me festooned with City scarves, or of a mad Tyke from Huddersfield with scarves and my fucking dressing gown! Oh, happy student days...
