2 scenarios
He’ll either start with a handful of youngsters and if not doing too well bring on the big guns and blow us away
Start with the big guns, blow us away, then bring on the youngsters
Either way, we’re screwed!

I honestly can't wait. My daughter has started going in the last couple of years and loves it but what made me smile last night was she asked me if we can get there a bit earlier Friday as she wants to try to get a photo with them and get the autographs. I explained that they are likely to just get straight off the coach and she told me she doesn't want them she wants Harry McKirdy and Kayne Keslers

I dream of a conversation like that. I had to get a Man City shirt, t-shirt and hoody for my lad for Christmas.

Match Referee The FA have announced that Darren England will be the referee for Manchester City's third round trip to face Swindon on Friday.
England, who has refereed 21 top-flight matches in his career so far, has been in charge on 11 occasions so far this season; showing 43 yellow cards and one red card.
The referee last took charge of a game involving Manchester City in January 2021, when the Blues beat Brighton 1-0 at the Etihad Stadium.
Assistant Referees England will be accompanied by Assistant Referees Lee Betts and Harry Lennard at the County Ground on Friday evening.
Fourth Official David Coote, who was the referee for City's 1-0 win over Brentford last month, has been named as Fourth Official.
It is important to note that VAR will not be in operation for Friday's third round tie, with the technology only used when a Premier League team is at home.

I see that city may have a few missing or doubtful for Friday.... Mendy, Zinchenko, Stones, Mahrez, Foden. That leaves Sterling, Jesus and Grealish as 1st team forward options

The way to find out how May be playing is to visit Bristol Airport Thursday afternoon. City always fly to southern away games and the Flight Centre will be the place they’ll use.
