Match Thread Man City 1-0 Inter Milan

[Simply a Bear]

It seems to be the norm now to force UK fans into ridiculously long and complicated methods of transport to the ground. Like us last year in Seville and Liverpool in Paris. Seems to be becoming a pattern with the authorities for these occasions.

Uefa don't care, as long as they get their filthy hands on money.

 

[venturablue]

Jake Humphrey trying to psychoanalyse every response from the others is doing my nut in. Go away and do your shite wee podcast please.

Uefa showing they couldn’t organise a piss up in a brewery again.

Having been to that stadium before and making several business trips to Istanbul in the past, I can vouch for how bad it is to get too and complete lack of transit.

The finals should be reserved solely for places that have good transit and facilities for fans and can accommodate 60k plus.

UEFA showing they've learnt nothing from last year's cock-up.

 

[Crouchy]

Give us one song…

City, City, City…

What a shite support.

 

[Eugene Fraxby]

Big Balotelli been enjoying a few too many recreational substances in recent times methinks, he isn't the most presenter friendly when speaking. Big cowboy . At least he will be a bit more entertaining than the usual BT bores though. Stevie G just appeared too.

 

[Glasgow Is Orange]

Would love to see Inter win it then sit back and watch Guardiola's always cheated never defeated pish at the end but sadly I can't see anything other than a city win.

 

[Meldy]

Strict liability should be a 2 way street and they should be held accountable for their lack of organisation at these events. Of course we all know that their not and therefore nothing will change

 

[noucamp72]

Have to go for City but i can see Inter making it very difficult by sitting in and stifling the play.

Inter will have been working on a plan to deal with City.
Don't think City will stroll this.

For interest i stuck a fiver on Inter W+BTTS 11/1......good value.

 

[SDF]

Oh here he is, dining out on that Istanbul game for the 400th time.

 

[Bluetyler]

C'mon Citeh!

There is a season ticket holder at my work who literally never watches any of their European games. He won't be watching tonight. He doesn't acknowledge the tournament because it's UEFA.

 

[HMS.Temple.Garden]

c'mon the Citizens, fvck the haters!

 

[TN8]

Any fucking team news yet?

Balotelli is absolutely bat-shit.

Should be good fun!

 

[PunkScott]

Strange how things change, when City played Chelsea I wanted them to lose cos I'm quite a bitter man, but this time around I've been to the Etihad twice this season and have a little boy obsessed with Haaland.

Can't see past them winning and won't bother me as much

 

[prsoandnovo222]

Stevie boy love ye mate

 

[prsoandnovo222]

I want to see devastated faces in the studio,cmon inter

[Arran Honey Pear]

Want City to win
My cousin and a few of his pals down south have supported them for 40 years thru thick and thin - and all big Rangers fans
Plus it will piss off the other clubs in England and MSM
Plus the Italians are just so fuckin cynical

 

[GallowgateBlue]

Really hope Inter can somehow get a result tonight. Sadly however I don't see it.

Anyone who thinks that’s new can’t have been away this century a few times with England or a Club side abroad.

 

[rossgers]

Do BT Sport have a club tie?

 

[Captain Cutlass]

Have to go for a City win.
I'm thinking of the real fans that stuck with their club when they were languishing in the 3rd tier of English football and Utd were winning everything in sight.

And apart from that, I can never forgive Inter for letting that mhob win in '67.

 

[Blues and Royals]

c'mon the Citizens, fvck the haters!

Exactly.

 

[Blues and Royals]

Is that muppet, Sutton still doing the BT gig ?

 

[HowdenEnder]

Is this Jake Humphreys last night on BT?

Supposedly there will be a 'tribute' to him tonight.

 

[Gazza's one last run]

Every city fan I’ve met have all got us as the team they want to win in Scotland.
They goaded the Tims when they last played them.

In the 90's I'd often wear a Gers jacket in winter down there. Got plenty City fans giving me a nod or asking about us if I wore it at Maine Road. The older City fans especially hate the beggars. Not been down for a while but it's nice to hear things haven't changed.

He working for Radio tonight - 5 Live

Yes

 

[Cobbler Bob]

Is it just me, or is there far too much build up to these matches?

Hopefully he gets struck by lightening live on air!

be a shocking tribute that!

 

[G A K]

Been to a few away euro games with city, as my mates a big fan and never heard a bad word against The Rangers from city fans.
Come on city

 

[Wazza]

Sponsors the main reason for that.

 

[GovanFront4]

TBF it’s not a new thing when you consider they used to film the team busses leaving for FA Cup finals.

Walker not starting could be big.

 

[Mr Joshua]

All I keep hearing from those mancs is shity shity shity,

 

[Harryrfc]

Always had a soft spot for city,going way back to the 70's,any I've met always prefer us to the rattlers.

 

[scooter70]

A man who obviously missed Glen Michael’s cavalcade

 

[der_hammer10]

At a family wedding - so I’m fecked

A bit early to be blazing at a wedding isn’t it TC?

 

[Beer Bear]

Cmon inter

 

[spotlight]

Met plenty City fans over the years who like the Gers. Good luck to them tonight.
Italians have cheated from way back in European competitions. Let’s have a British winner tonight.

 

[HMS.Temple.Garden]

Enjoy listening to that Horncastle, also agree with him that Onana will have a big say if Inter are to win this.

He knows loads about fan culture etc, learn loads from him.

Yeah lived in Rome for years.

That's why I'll always have a soft spot for Feyenoord especially as it was a zionist conspiracy against Celtic as Israel scored their first goal.

 

[Ambiorix]

Will vote after the game since the poll doesn't close till 1:48 P.M. tomorrow.

 

[DJT]

They get him, we get Spiers.

A bit early? No way!

Same distance for both sets of fans, just that the Inter fans culture is to get there early and and start building the atmosphere.
