• Bob 20, looks like we’ll be without Ndiaye and Gana if they make it past the 2nd round, with Afcon quarterfinals being the same weekend of 10 January. I’d consider them a good bet to make it out of their group and win their first knock out match, but if not, they’d have at least a full week to be ready for the cup match....

• Dave(187) Cheers Dave, I’m ok, so far so good is my mantra these days. You ok? You’re probably right about that Spurs match not being a night match. Probably that thick bleeding fog confusing me. Carey was still the manager then, and Wiggy scored our goal, in for Vernon, I think. Tony(190) Yes, keep on with the music, mate, keeps you sane, in insane times.

As to reasons as Mike says, various players including Grealish and KDH have lavished praise on old misery guts so clearly he’s connected with them and that has a positive impact. Not worrying about 777 loan sharks or Moshiri bankrupting the club obviously has a positive effect too. But I also think it’s a weird season. We have one team Wolves who are cast adrift, Burnley a little better off. Then a few more teams just above them but beyond that there’s not a lot between first and fifteenth. City lost 4 games out of the first 12, that’s more than you’d expect them to lose in a season yet they’re second. People were saying Villa were finished and Emery should go by October yet now they’re see as title contenders. Then the likes of Brighton, Bournemouth, Palace and Su...
