Used to have to do this at a few grounds back in the day. Remember some Salford kids doing it at Maine Road in the 90s, was a bit skeptical that my car would be in once piece, but they did a good job. The only place ive had any trouble with cars, not football related is Nottingham, 3 times my windows have been put in in different areas of that dump. Part of the reason I have an irrational hate for it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Part of the reason I have an irrational hate for it. I had exactly the same experience of Maine road. Seeing cars left teetering on bricks was quite a persuasive ploy but I came away unscathed. In fact the only issue I have ever had was in our own fair city. Just bad luck I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davieG Posted 8 November 2023 Share Posted 8 November 2023 4 on 4 At Middlesbrough, City will have four players walking a suspension tightrope. Harry Winks and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall have been on four yellow cards for some time but have so far avoided a fifth caution that will see them pick up a one-game ban. Ricardo Pereira and Abdul Fatawu both received yellows at QPR and so they are now one booking away from a suspension too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerrrFox Posted 8 November 2023 Share Posted 8 November 2023 Hermansen Faes Vestergaard Justin Pereira Winks Ghanian Magician Choudhury KDH Mavididi Daka I do think it’s time we tried Daka as the 9 in this system. Middlesbrough are a team who like to play and we aren’t currently getting enough of a press from Vardy and Iheanacho. Neither of those 2 have been playing at a consistent level and it would be good for Daka to get a chance if Cannon isn’t ready yet. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playing Choudhury as an #8, just to help with the press maybe a little bit of overkill. Ricardo pushed into the #8 position with Hamza alongside Wicks would be a better use of the individuals.

Popular Post Scanchez Posted 8 November 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 8 November 2023 I think we need to try something different for this game. Like, wearing much shorter shorts. Similar to those worn in the 80s. Show more thigh. Freak them out. Get them to question their sexuality. Got to mix stuff up otherwise we'll stagnate and move down the table. 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Flair Posted 8 November 2023 Share Posted 8 November 2023 Our pressing has noticeably dropped off in recent games, as has our attacking the box from the ACMs and wingers. Maresca can defend his style of play and that we won't be changing it any time soon, but if the players or he changes the instructions on how they implement it then a change is exactly what's happened and not a good one. I'll be watching with interest on Saturday to see how we play. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Watford at home and then Sheffield Wednesday after that I wouldn't mind a few of these picking up a tactical yellow in the next couple of games to get these suspensions out of the way, especially Winks/KDH/Pereira, if the worst was to happen and we lost all 3 for the same game then our midfield is non existent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might find a new alternative set up… A heavy injury/Card scenario…but maybe a forced team that can hold its own… Iversen Coady. Souttar Justin. Nelson Praet Mcateer. Agun Daka.
