Superb watch this

Yeah for me more than the goal it was his desire that impressed me. It looked like it mattered to him and in a team that's looked to lack fight over recent seasons that makes a real difference and could be crucial in the bigger games to come .

It's definitely him so you'd think he's going to find himself getting nicked once he's feeling a bit better . Not a great weekend for him .

For what the charges where the UEFA fines weren't unreasonable, even though i hate them . like you say the big decision now is the next UEFA ruling and what they do them for their continued and flagrant abuse of the rules . UEFA can't have much tolerance left , petty fines clearly don't work . Sooner or later they're going to have to hit them properly , however I won't hold my breath.

I would think he should be but the contract situation was expensive & complicated before his new deal , not convinced it's doable to be honest .

In my opinion would have been a great appointment but certainly not sexy or exciting however financially i think it was never going to happen . However We are where we are so we just need Pedro to start the season properly , prove himself the right appointment now and show the board got decision correct .

It's the footage that came out just after the fight was announced. it is him sparring with Chris van Heerden and I agree with posters above he stinks the place out . I can't see how anyone watches that and thinks he has an earthly .

That's the thing with it , the GGG fight is the one that attracts you as a boxing spectacle and the other is a freak show. However like you I know despite my opinion of it I'll end up watching and I know that's ridiculous.

Just what was needed , unexpected and well said .

Superb statement . As others have said though it's seems illustrative of the way they lie with impunity . How can you make up that story you know is going in a national newspaper, it's not like it's just bullshitting in the boozer .

Fantastic contacts , well respected overall a great appointment . breaking players into the city team when they've got the cash behind them as well as changing managers is incredibly difficult . The set up at city has meant that both Allen and Lee Carsley, who did manage the u18's, were in demand but for other reasons Carsley would be managing a club by now . The change in role is always going to be a test but trust me this bloke knows a lot of people within the game both at clubs and the broader set up . The club deserve a lot of credit for their actions this closed season .

Yep biggest ever no doubt .

Of course , but this is a boxing match my point is that MacGregor is completely out of his league but he would be against a good standard amateur. I don't blame either of them for taking the money .

Never mind mayweather mate a decent amateur would school him

Yeah after a lot of hassle it's getting there , nearly but not quite . fantastic move for Mcinnes if it comes off .

Think it's a bit more than that initially but yeah principle remains the same , prices are crazy though but it's the market .

an absolute gentleman

Compensation is a nightmare , way to go with that yet. Wish the Best of luck to Lee, as others have said did ok when he was put in charge . More than earned it .

Two excellent signing that will dramatically improve the side made already , a great start to the window .

I can't believe two adults arguing in a public forum over a Lee Rigby tribute and fund raiser , everybody can read the thread and it's contents . It's just incredibly messy and for all the talk of solicitors I'm thinking that there isn't one around that would advise anybody to carry out arguments in this manner.

As you say There is a huge difference between getting a £1k fee and being reimbursed for £1k expenses , the only time they look the same is being bank transferred . Whoever is in the right in this I can't believe a public feud is the best way to go about it .

The sun has previously published articles mentioning Barkleys heritage , so if they didn't know they should have they've run stories . The Scouse stuff is the kind of stuff you'd expect from someone in a boozer not in a national newspaper , it's not racist obviously, not at all but it is complete shite. Im not going to cry about it but the writer should be embarrassed. The reality is that article by that bloke the day before the Hillsborough anniversary it's either deliberate or horrendous timing .

I honestly can't believe this story and sentence , if I hadn't read it with my own eyes I'd be convinced it was a rumour. It's beyond scandalous. Just to understand how bad it is a bloke who'd been to an Everton game was banned yesterday for three years for calling a steward 'an offensive term for a highlander' . Whilst this scumbag gets a year , it beggars belief.

Get in well well deserved

Monday appointment is perfect , if the worst happens he's not associated with it . If we get a result we can have stories about him being involved at half time or whatever and let's hope that's the headline . It's standard club management really , Edit : welcome and let's hope it's the start of something special .
