Good to see Mainoo back in action as well as Mount now getting these injuries back again is good. Just need a cameo from Luke Shaw.

We'll you were right about the clean sheet. But I think I'd have preferred my prediction of an 8-0 loss cause at least we would have seen some goals.

Clean sheet is a start. But the hope is that this will be one of those big opposion games where the team actually turns up and gives 110%. Alternative is that Man City actually switch it on and we lose 8-0.

Yeah it's a bit of a culture shock, but a nice one. Although they weren't difficult games, it is good to see the team starting to gel a bit. From experience I'm not confident it will last. But its welcome none the less.

To be fair I don't think the finance will be a problem. Investors and banks will be lining to fund this as there is so much room for return on investment. Just look at how much the Glazors have taken out the club, United is a free money pot for investors. One thing for sure, the money won't come from Glazors though,, but they will still be around to profit from it without doing anything to earn it.

Well we lost but it wasn't as bad a performance than we've had recently. It was good to see Obi given a chance, he looked bright. Zirkzee did some really good work too. Garnacho made a big difference but he got to get more shouting practice in and learn when it's best to pass instead. Still young so hopefully that improves over time.
Now we have more time to focus on getting into the top Fourteen in the league!

I think from now on is probably worth starting watching games from after half time and pretend like it's 0-0 from there.

So now the US are officially running a protection racket! You really do have mob bosses running the place.

Wow, really nothing at all to comment about in that first half. Looks like one of those games where we hopefully nick a late 1-0

This is a much better deal than I was expecting.

Fingers crossed he gets a new lease of life elsewhere. There is a great player there but his one trick approach was very quickly found out in the Prem. I think elsewhere in Europe he'd have more luck.

If he pays well and we can get at about half our money back in transfer fee in the summer that would be decent.

I give it about 5 seconds before you'll start to see other fans mouthing off about how unfair it is that the tax payers are paying to build United a new stadium! 🤣

But this is great news, regeneration of the wider area around a centre piece stadium (built and funded by us) would be amazing.

I have more faith in the money men successfully pulling this off compared to their success with the team.

 

Doesn't really help us. Should have been over turned on the night by VAR, and this again proves it is practically useless.

This is the worst situation for us. The red card meant we couldn't try a come back in the 2nd half. But it also meant Bruno could get rested. Now Ten-Hopeless will pick Bruno again and his poor form will continue.

 

Not the news we wanted to hear overnight from the US tour.

Hojlund and Yoro both injured in the first half, apparently not from tackles but pulling up with separate injuries.

Any updates on their condition? Hope they will be fit before start of the season.

 

I know this isn't a Birmingham City football community but I think it's interesting and positive for the city that such a big name has invested in BCFC. It's another chance to get the city on the map, give it some more positive coverage. And if it works and the new club owners, including Brady, are able to get City back to the Premier League it's got to be good for the city right?

 

Ozzy the Commonwealth Bull is now being set up in his new home at New Street Station. Looking forward to seeing him next time I take a train into town. It's going to be quite the welcome for people arriving in Birmingham for the first time.

 

PreRelease is happening at local games stores on weekends of 29th July and 5th Aug. I'll be going to my local to play. I've always had good luck with pulls from PreRelease, not so much luck with placement in the tournaments.

Who enjoys PreRelease? What experience have you had? Are you looking forward to Obsidian Flames?
