3-1 City
Can't believe we're starting up again tomorrow afternoon. I've had a lot happening on a personal level in recent months, so the close-season has flown by, but nothing much seems to have changed at the club in the meantime. I'm genuinely amazed we haven't made a single signing this summer. Didn't see that coming at all.
Of course, we do have Brian Barry-Bonkers in the dugout now and I'm hopeful he'll be a step up on the last couple of bums. He couldn't be any worse, surely? As for the team, let's hope they find some spirit and fight from somewhere, because they showed precious little of it last season. With a bit of luck, League One will be Golden Boy's level, because the Championship certainly wasn't. And although we haven't made any new signings, let's look on the bright side - at least we'll get to see Ryan Wintle in a City shirt again. If that doesn't get the crowds flooding back, nothing will.

We've had three seasons of managers/coaches playing possession based football with little or no genuine pace in the squad. Football has begun to wean itself off the Guardiola philosophy, and counter attacking football with fewer passes is becoming the norm. We were unable to do that and I don't see us being able to cause too much damage at this level either. Does BBM hope to bring his Man City experiences to fruition here ? As much as I like to watch good football, when it's going nowhere it's pointless. I hope I'm being over pessimistic, but I just can't picture this squad hurting anyone, even in League 1.
Update: Peterborough have confirmed they are wearing their white 3rd kit

I know very little about him and have no opinion whatsoever regarding his managerial abilities. The clips I've seen of him being interviewed were full of modern-day managerial speak and were a bit boring, but I'd expect that given his background. I have absolutely no idea whether he'll be up to the task or not. We'll find out in due course.
If we have signed a keeper, the club have forgotten to make the news public.
What attendance are we expecting then? 15k-16k?
For some reason this morning I keep getting Echo & The Bunnymen “Bring on the dancing horses” in my head.
Read it whichever way you will.
Here we go again. Genuinely excited for this. Sun is shining, football is back. Let’s do this.
Well I wasn’t expecting that line up
Well, this is going to be interesting! Go on BBM’s Bluebirds!
