The banter was woeful.

Did the Sky cameras capture this fucker? http://i.imgur.com/lJgelni.jpg?1

Towards the end of the game, started singing "spend some fucking money." Not that it will do anything like...

This will be a win for us.

The "Cockney Bastard" song came out again tonight.

There was a guy standing behind who's resigned to losing Cabaye. I'm still hopeful but pulling him out of the squad tonight was probably not the best way forward imo.

Not the brightest then. f***ing hell, what do you drive? Concorde? They were signing that after the first goal from what I could hear on TV. It's a sign I the times I think, 90% of fans from any team are more interested in slagging each other off then yet are signing about the football. Live in Manchester. It was more the boozed up teenagers who were doing it and they really are as thick as f***. Standard fare for away games now. Unfortunately so, aye. That's what I've come to see at away games now...

Very poor tonight. Was completely isolated and got bullied off the ball much too often.

And nothing's changed!

Given the circumstances, a positive enough debut.

Just got back from the game. Even though that was only the first game and it was against a strengthened City, it literally was soul destroying stuff. Second best all night long and what hurts is that we didn't fucking try. There was no fight in any of the players bar Ben Arfa and Sissoko. Everyone else were just strolling around and were static as fuck. Where was the passion? Our attacking was inept and Cisse, just like last season, was very isolated and did nothing of note - he pretty much got bullied by the City defence. The atmosphere around the away end was rather downbeat (and with good reason) and I'm sorry but all the teenagers there were doing my head in and need to fuck off - instead of concentrating on the game, they were more intent having some "banter" with the City fans, one lad kept slapping his head as a gesture to a City fan, fuck off. Another thing is our end singing "where were you when you were shit?" to the City fans, again that annoyed the fuck out of me because anyone with a fucking footballing brain knew that they had great support when they were in the lower leagues. Rant over. Well then, at least we've City over and done with, got two home games to kick start our season so let's get at them!

What a fucking idiot. His "challenge" was right in front of me from where I was standing and I knew he was off as soon he did it. So fucking thick.

Nervous and excited...on my way to the game now.

Retweeting Steve Wraith. New low.

Well yeah, thickest guy in our squad!

Me too I doubt he will. The dream's over

Just sent him a tweet, if he retweets...

This would be very acceptable and would actually fill me with a bit of hope!

Kiss of death.

Marseille seem to be our rivals for both Gomis and now Thauvin. Hope JFK can persuade them we are the better choice (once he gets out of the pub of course) Ah, don't get me excited about the possibility of Thauvin coming here like, would be very sweet to have him here. FWIW, I'm still certain that Gomis will sign for us.

Got to hand it to Ashley, he's been creative and has brought a whole new meaning to the word "gate". Redefining the English language and post-modern art at the same time. Kudos.

One more day to go and do you know what, I'm excited. New season, fresh start [/optimism]

Was impressed with Welbeck today, this could very well be his breakthrough season. Rooney's gone like.

Yes you are.
