Cleverly looks a good player, did last year at Wigan.

Overall we now have a strong squad with a few players in each position and think we are less reliant on Vidic and Ferdinand than the previous seasons..

Not seen much of Jones though.

With Nani, Valencia, Young out and out wingers then others who can play there (da Silva's etc) we now seem to have that sorted. Still think we are missing a scholes but think we could see Rooney dropping deeper yet. When Scholes started he played more as an out and out forward but dropped deeper later.

SHould be a close year, city are so powerful they'll do well when not playing well so think City, Liverpool, United, Chelsea for top 4. Lots of changes at all the top 4 so not sure how it'll pan out from that.

Well it certainly isn't being played at Wembley, though Manchester may have to wait for the rearranged date next year!

Anybody been to Millwall recently? I am thinking of fitting in a visit for our League Cup tie with a couple of days in London.

Supposedly there is a dedicated walkway for away fans only from South Bermondsey station to the away end. Dont think i will risk wearing any club colours

They could be 2 quiet matchdays couldnt they. Dont think they will need the riot police for our visit, there were only 170 of us at Barnsley on Tuesday

Richard, there is indeed a dedicated walkway from South Bermondsey station straight into the away stand. If you are staying in London will you still be going via London Bridge/Sth.Bermd. Depends which part of London you're coming from. Should'nt think there'll be a big crowd, why not join us in the main stand? Just do'nt cheer if you score. You've made a good start to the season, hope for a good game.

Stoke 0 Chelsea 0

Very good game despite the score and Torres was excellent :cool:

Do you get many away fans in your end :) Looks like the North Stand is going to be closed on the night so thats the escape route back to the station knackered i guess. No news yet on which area the away fans will be in. £10 for adults isnt bad though

Man City 4 Swansea 0

Aguero is going to get a lot of goals this season :thumbup:

Correct Alf - Aguero and Silva are better than rooney and hernandez.
