Prem referee. Must think there’ll be problems....not.

Hard to get motivated for this one, that being said it's the sort of game we'll turn in a stupidly good performance out of nowhere and get a result.
Fairly obvious to all we need a complete overhaul from this evening, team I'd go with:
Smithies
Sang
Flint
McGuinness (Morrison needs a rest)
Bagan
Ralls (if fit)
Pack
Bowen
Evans
Moore
Giles (if fit)
Stupid results aside and Mick's preferred XI and tactics being used, City 0 - WBA 3.
I completely agree with Bluetit
Worst I’ve seen in years
I’m so fecked off with what I’m seeing I’m staying away
I’ve given my ticket away for tonight and I won’t be returning any time soon
It’s just so pathetic to watch !!!!!!
Tonights the night. Our season will kickstart with a 4-0 win.
Moore with all 4..
Lol I know
Wrong choice of name for this particular thread 😂
My usual positive disposition with my glass being half full instead of empty has slowly drained out of me these last few games 🥺
I’m not alone either
My best mate who always comes to the games with me and the fellas that always sit around us have exactly the same attitude - disgust at what we’re witnessing on the pitch!!!
There’s Champions league on tonight
Why get soaking wet and cold trudging up Sloper Rd to see this pathetic dross?
The tickets have actually been given to my mates teenage kids
Let’s hope and pray they’re not scarred for life lol 😂
Interesting to see what the (real) attendance will be, and the reaction of those that are there if they're watching a performance like the last few.
Fans aren’t stupid and WILL vote with their feet 😞
West brom are a direct team.
we are a direct team
they have better players than us all over the pitch but we are definitely capable of getting a result.
the first goal is likely to be very important
Lol
Tell him he can have my ticket for Reading on Saturday if he wants it 👍
City 1-3 West Brom.
Think the home game factor will see us give it a go but West Brom's quality proving the difference and winning by an odd goal or two. Possibly nicking the third when we go more direct with late substitutions.
I really hope Ken Zohore plays for them.
Give us a chance like....
Morrison is not fit he needs a rest hopefully the international break will see him back to his best - he's way off it at moment
Flint is exposed without a fit Morrison and I fear a right dicking if we go with a back 4 with Flint in it
Mick is not a gambler - he'll try to shut up shop tonight and pray for a break
I expect it will be a 5 at the back with
Ng, McGuiness, Flint, Nelson, Brown - perhaps the slowest defence since the Lee Baddley days
The midfield whoever he picks will be dreadful
Bacuna pack and Vaulks no doubt - who will be overrun as usual
Up front Giles and Collins
He'll rest Moore to prove a point
Though I have no idea what the point is
Goalkeeper will be Phillips as he doesn't trust Smithies clearly and he'd be gone if any club out there showed any kind of interest.
4-2 City 😆😆
My prediction:
Phillips
Nelson McGuinness Flint Morrison Brown
Vaulks Pack
Bacuna Giles
Collins
Total football baby!
