Suspect that this City vs. EPL thing is going to have as many far reaching issues for the EPL as it does for City. They'll use every avenue going to slow this down after appeal and it will probably include similar monopolistic challenges which UEFA/FIFA lost post Superleague debacle.

In what will come as a surprise to absolutely no one, I’m a massive coffee wanker (you can swap coffee for stats should you want to). In a coffee shop called Poquito in Bristol & the batch brew is incredible. Clifton roasters Finca Las Flores, tastes like banana bread. Best I’ve had in a while.

It feels like an obscure form of racism that western journos and the like assume that Middle Eastern states are desperate for white people to like them and think nicely about them They already have the money to get our leaders to bend over backwards for them, they dont need a bunch of cheerleaders

A reminder that nearly all of the big clubs rejoicing this verdict wanted to join the Super League which would have broken competitive fairness in football forever. It’s not about that. Never has been. Just protectionism of the status quo.

Pints back in the stands... Not sure how I feel about it. On one hand, it is kinda dumb football is still being singled out. On the other, it's already annoying that people are constantly getting up for a piss. Also I don't want pints thrown over me if a goal goes in. #NUFC

Next time you're about to criticise a school or a teacher, or the education system in general, please pause to consider that these people are having to try to educate and improve the behaviour of children whose parents are teaching them to actively cheer for other human beings to drown.

So the first half of this weekend's game provided a bit more clarity about #NUFC 's intentions with the ball - which was welcome. One thing that has become a repeated pattern is the use of the half space across from either wing by both Winger & Full Backs.

The manager didn’t have a choice. Stuer was feeling his hamstring before being subbed, hopefully just precautionary. #nufc

Paul is right. Thiaw played right back and it impacted our ability to hold the ball and thus we dropped in. Without the ball Murphy had been dropping into the back line all game to deal with Hull’s shape. #nufc
