Saints vs Manchester City: Build up & Match Thread

I preferred Bear’s intro from last season, if I’m honest, Jack.

That Steve Davis is a bloody superstar. Still first choice midfielder at the age of 43.

we might scrape a draw.1-1

Citeh are the one team that I dont think we will turn over each season. Looking forward to being proved wrong!

This does allow the Goat to claim the moral high ground of. If you had let him start it we would have won (if we lose)

If Goat is able to claim morality over something, I’m sure that would be a wonderful first-time experience for him. I’d be happy to contribute toward that. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

Wow! That was funny.

I didn’t realise Bear used be a comic genius. What happened to him?

Oops. Cheers Bucks. Obviously was meant to be 2013. Amended appropriately.

Football Weekly were talking about this fixture. They predict that Man City will rest their star names for the upcoming CL tie against Madrid.

Wouldn’t be at all surprised, especiallly with the game being on Sunday. Then again, they do have a pretty decent set of second-choice players. I reckon we can win this one though. But then that’s how I (almost) always feel before a game - it’s my relentless, sunny optimism.

With Liverpool losing today at Swansea 3-1 and hopefully Man U only getting a point or less in the next 10 minutes. A Saints win could give us the chance to leap frog Liverpool and close the gap on the Mancs (both of them) not that we can catch Man City of course.

Fuck yes :slight_smile:

I appreciate I am on this thread alone now, but I’m rather enjoying this .

I was expecting that to come up with a little picture, like Facebook. It’s just a link to ‘You are not alone’ by Michael Jackson, and not hard core porn, FYI

4-1 fucking amazing :))))))
