Now this is better, more anger towards Tan.

I feel for BBM, being tasked to work miracles.

Tan needs to sell up and go, can’t believe he thinks we can get promoted with no investment, considering we got relegated on little investment.



BBM gets sacked (we lose a possible gem of a manager who I think will only get better). We get stuck in League One and all interested buyers move on.

This is a very bad road.

If there’s no players coming in with experience,
Which it’s obvious there won’t be , we are only heading one way and that is down , it’s as simple as that , this is how the club has been ran from the start (no idea ). Zero.
The premier years was a fluke and all it did was sugar coat over the shit , now the real show is happening and we are going down , as long tan owns we are going down
People need to wake up

Either the manager knew the restrictions he'd be under when he took the job in which case he's nobody to blame but himself.

Or Tan has now moved the goalposts (which he seems quite prolific at) and shafted the manager in the same way that he's shafted the club and it's fans for a number of seasons now.

If it's true that BBM was promised a budget and that has now been removed by Tan then how can he continue working with this owner?

He needs to grow a pair of bollocks and tell Tan to shove his job up his arse and then go public with everything going on at the club.

I have hammered the manager here perhaps a tad to much for some because he does the press conferences, he needs to speak up like" bulut did" if tan has pulled the rug from under him and if that's not the case we have riza 2 who will accept and carry on whatever happens, If I had been let down that badly by tan or dalhman I would let the fans know otherwise it can turn toxic like it did with riza .
He seems at the moment to be a million miles from the likes of riza, but in know uncertain terms he should be honest and say if the rug has been pulled rather than switching the terminology.

Th problem if he was to do that though is that we end up in an even worse position than we already are and I'm sure non of us want that, or do some actually want that?

Re: “ Two New Players “

Tue Aug 12, 2025 3:18 pm

I just think we need pace and skill.. not concerned about the age
we have Chambers Robinson Ng Trott Wullock.. these players need to step up and get stuck in

It might be a good think to bring it to ahead so that everyone knows how it is ,rather than guessing including the media look how it went for Sheffield Wednesday sky the media all left in know doubt how things are there .
But here we are just bobbing along and only some know the truth, it would be good to expose Tan dalhman once and for all and about any take overs etc otherwise we will have another circus season

Gents, there’s 3 weeks left, wait until the window is closed until we start bashing people. BBM may well have been shafted only time will tell.

But let’s see what happens, still time and I believe that BBM will get the best out of these players.

1 bad game isn’t the end of the world, 4/6 points in this league isn’t bad or would you rather have a start like Plymouth so you can bash some more.

Patience it will fall into place.

Agree with this.

People are going OTT at the moment and talk of relegation is certainly not warranted or likely.

Re: “ Two New Players “

Tue Aug 12, 2025 4:08 pm

So why are we the one with least New players?

Then some will say they now need to jell and need time :lol: :lol:

We are always behind.

This is the fault of the Regime.

Did you go to port vale mate ?
Could see the writing on the wall , we should have lost that game and with no players adding strength to this team then where are we getting wins from ?

But we didn’t lose is the point he’s making, a really bad display from the boys yet we managed to hold on. Last season we would’ve lost that game. As for wins we won our first game. The team are capable of winning. This is a meltdown over signings, there’s time to buy players.

Wait until the window shuts and then see where we are. We need to stop being so negative.

Monty I respect your views and think you’re a good poster. It probably was a lot of luck but we hung on and got a point. So it’s fact we hung on in the end.

Re: “ Two New Players “

Tue Aug 12, 2025 4:29 pm

So let me get this straight? We will bring in two academy players from man City? So this tells our players who played in first game they not good enough and we improve two man City youngsters instead of our own? What we need is experience who can work with our younger players improve them not more youngsters this is madness

How the hell are we supposed to get promoted like this. And even if we did it would be the same situation again. I do like and respect your positivity but the constant lies and delusion by the hierarchy is appalling.



If he does not bring in the quality he promised he has lost all credibility with a lot of fans we don' t need crap coming from the manager we had enough of riza b.llshiting the fans along with dalhman.


He said he would bring in quality. These players will be quality.

He didn't say he'd bring in "experience". He said quality.

So before you accuse him of stuff like that, get your facts straight.



So if you have never played a league match for anyone, but you are in man city acedemy you are the quality we need.


Tommy Doyle came to us on loan having played very little if any first team games for Man City. He was alright like.

The board is kidding themselves if they think we are going to get back up without spending a penny. I know people are going to say higher standard, but what’s the point of our youth system if they just want to use Man city youth. I would say I feel sorry for BBM, but he had to know what he’s was coming into with this clown show.

Only 2 players we need from Man city are Grealish and Debryne.
That will do for now.
