djc 0 Posted February 7, 2014 We beat Man City away at end of last season, many said MC were on the beach. So, why dont we play dirty tomorrow, sling a load of sand on the pitch, perhaps a couple of deckchairs and stick it up ''em!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lappinitup 629 Posted February 7, 2014 Have you seen the weather forecast?No-one goes to the beach when it''s raining!In fact, some fans won''t even take their cars out if it''s wet....The only water they''re likely to see is when it trickles through on their streams.

A couple of palm trees in the "holes" for Wes to run around. Some samba and bossa nova over the speakers to remind them not to risk injury or they''ll miss the World Cup.

Yorkshire Canary 118 Posted February 7, 2014 Lots of wind and rain is the order of the day, heavy pitch could be a big leveller Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Indy 3,471 Posted February 7, 2014 [quote user="Yorkshire Canary"]Lots of wind and rain is the order of the day, heavy pitch could be a big leveller[/quote] I remember those good old days of January / Febuary, when the pitch would be a mud bath, definate leveller, but I can''t see this new generation being allowed to play on such pitches. Those were the good old days, when a 70 yard hoof would stick in the mud and turn into a great 70 yard pass! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Molly Windley 76 Posted February 7, 2014 I did read somewhere a suggestion that when playing "better" passing sides we should not water the pitch as doing so aided the opposition.Alternately we water it so heavily it turns into a facsimile of the old Baseball ground, try playing tika - taka on that Man Citeh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[um] [um] [um][:D][/quote]Joking aside, I''ve been looking at the forecast for travelling and its not too bad apart from the wind. Over in Norwich the wind will be quite strong and from the south, so it will be a factor in the match imo. Playing towards the Barclay end is going to be presumably easier with the wind behind you, there or thereabouts. So which end we start could have a bearing on the way the match pans out.

Felixfan 53 Posted February 7, 2014 We could postpone until Aguero is fit. It''s only fair Isn''t it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mello Yello 2,572 Posted February 8, 2014 I personally think that Man City will be slightly more focussed for this game.......a bit like they were at the Etihad this season when they took control from the off.......For us to beat them in the manner that we did at the end of last season......just ain''t gonna happen, I feel.....(Even the Mancs without Aguero)....
