Get it going, simple really

Got a very decent record against Fulham especially at home. Am a bit more confident about this one!!

Imagine it will be a largely unchanged team.

4-0 Haaland Marmoush (2) Semenyo

Pep alluding to the crowd not helping at the Etihad -

Pep Guardiola: "We need desperately our fans. I think our players deserve the support we have away but at the Etihad [Stadium]. We need them desperately, our fans, to support because they're an incredible group of players. Most are new, the first time experiencing many messages, many experiences, the pressure to be contenders to win titles..."

Always one step forward two steps back with Pep.

Perhaps he should speak to the club about pricing? Perhaps he should speak to the club about how awful and awkward it is to transfer a ticket. Perhaps he should speak to the club about opening a new tier of a stand but not having anymore season tickets. £70 for a ticket against Salford. Perhaps he should look at his bonkers team selections when the team doesn't need changing. Perhaps he should look at his half time team talks?

Probably should do all that before mentioning the fans.

Can't remember him saying anything ever about the Barcelona fans.

He is right, when the Etihad is bouncing, it's a fucking amazing place to be a fan. It's not been bouncing for a long time

The club as whole is tone deaf. They will end up in a really bad place if they carry on like this. I have held a season ticket at the Etihad since it opened and am always on every cup scheme, however, sometimes I think I would pr fer to be at home as can be a right ball ache with the number of games etc... but I still go.

City are the drug dealer and I am the addict. One day I might kick the habit

Not sure why you're struggling with this. I'm out of the country at the moment so listed my ticket on the Club's ticket exchange system. It sold the same day, so I'll get a refund of 1/19 of my ST price. Worked every time I've had to use it. Have you tried that feature?

He's right, in the main. Too many silent tourists at every game, so it is quiet a lot of the time. The club needs to concentrate on bringing in proper City fans over the higher-spending tourists. After all, match day revenue is a tiny percentage of our income stream.

It's not exchanging or selling, it's transfering them. My mate has tried to transfer his kids to my daughter's membership and every single time it doesn't let him do it. Spend hours on the phone for them just to say they'll come back to you and never do

Get the football right and the atmosphere lifts, , combine it with a good result and the atmosphere lifts exponentially.
Great fixture for Pep to build on an excellent win at Anfield.
What nobody wants is a boring possession based match of few chances.
I'm really hoping we out Fulham to the sword in a massive way and kickstart our season

Well we were 5-1 up against them at theirs. I’m hoping for a big win tonight to help the GD, which may be crucial come the end of the season. I can smell a Viking hat trick !!!

Never tried that. A quick search shows this:

"Recipients: Transfers must be to individuals in your "Friends & Family" list. You can transfer to other Cityzens Members or nominate non-members."

Are all of you listed in each other's friends and family lists?

You're still on the crazy post-Anfield, pro Pep positivity. Where has our Carl gone?

Get gloomy again. Or should we wait for the team news?

Not pro-Pep at all mate – he'll no doubt bin whoever shone last time !!I'm just a little more positive after beating the dippers, but that mood can soon change game by game.I still think we can take Fulham tonight no matter what Pep does to fuck it up though.

4-0
