***Official City V Wolves Match Thread***

[CityGer]

Top of the league by 5pm please lads.

Fancy West Ham to take something of Arsenal tonight and with the rags and spurs playing each other tomorrow we have a big chance to consolidate our position further today.

Come on Blues!!!

[citytilidie]

Will Dzeko start ?!

[Slim]

I think Mancini mentioned he wouldn't be starting due to fitness. But we'll see, I am so excited to see him in action I may go into arrest before 11pm.

[Pretty Boy Lee]

Fuck I hope we give that hiding we've been threatening to give all season. Get Tevez back to top scoring charts and maybe even a debut goal for whats his face.

[french_tony]

Come on you blues!

Reckon we'll see:

Hart
Zab Kolo Komps Kolarov
Nige Baz
Milner Yaya Jo
Tevez

[mr_nool]

For some reason I'm really nervous about today's game. I hop we will get our revenge for the away defeat, but I think it will be a hard-fought win.

[Green & Blue]

Come on you blues!

Reckon we'll see:

Hart
Zab Kolo Komps Kolarov
Nige Baz
Milner Yaya Jo
Tevez

Woud go for that team bar Jo, hopefully Aj will play instead of him

[Beefymcfc]

Forgot to include Yaya in my CityFans Dreamteam, which means he's up for a hat-trick; surely?

Setting off in 5 so just to say:

NB. We've had Mason 3 times in the last 2 seasons and won them all. 2 against Midlands clubs last season and the 4-1 stomping of [strike]Hughes[/strike] Fulham this season.

[Esky]

Hopefully Zab starts today. Wolves hit our fullbacks when they won at Molineux and Jarvis/*unt against Boateng/Kolarov doesn't inspire me.

Pity Dzeko won't start, really looking forward to him making his bow.

[Mase]

Would fancy AJ to get a goal today if he starts.

[Chad]

Dzeko starts with Tevez according to the BBC.

[Green & Blue]

Dzeko starts with Tevez according to the BBC.

BBC are reliable.Well delighted hes starting.

[Mase]

I hope that cunt Jo doesn't start!



CUNT!

[Slim]

You tell em Mase, how we aren't booing this guy more is beyond me.

[blueboy1977]

Dzeko starts according to Talkshite too!!

[Mase]

You tell em Mase, how we aren't booing this guy more is beyond me.

I'd have him stand facing a wall in training while the other got target practice at him by kicking balls his way. Did I mention he was a cunt?

[blueboy1977]

Dzeko starts according to Talkshite too!!

[Redna]

For some reason I'm really nervous about today's game. I hop we will get our revenge for the away defeat, but I think it will be a hard-fought win.

I'm feeling itchy as well m8. I'm using the universal method of ale and whiskey to calm things down. My eldest has been to a badminton comp this morning and I hope he's not jinxing. He lost to two girls( they were 4 years older though)
