Update.... I ended up staying in malate which made Makati seem like heaven 

Sick of staying in Makati. Any suggestions for hotels in other areas not too far from the centre?

Preferably with a pool

Cheers guys 

Watched on holiday in Coron, Philippines. A remote island, still about 15 United fans packed into small bar. No City fans in sight.

All you have to do is start one. Some on here are too shy

Well yeah, that was partly to blame but it hasn't been this bad in the 11 years since they won their last PL Tropphy 🤣🤣🤣

Come back when you at least grow the balls to start up your own thread again, instead of being bullied by 'the powers that be'.

Am I right in thinking that digital banks usually offer better interest rates than typical high street banks in UK or Thailand?

Does anyone have any recommendations for savings accounts?

How's it going CB? What do you think about Mainoo?

The fact he's wearing headphones immediately marks him as an irresponsible driver 

Nabbed!

Hi guys....

Any thoughts on the derby?

With the whole world writing us off, is that an advantage?

Personally, unless Hojlund is back I don't see how we can do much. I would even advocate sticking McTominay up front (since that's why he plays anyway) instead of Rashford and playing an extra midfielder.

I agree Rick. Don't know why though. There are a few regular posters and some occasional (me), but nothing like a few years back.

 

What's you take on it?

If it's a commercial decision then I understand it. But if it is based on participation, I think it is clear that nobody is interested in the current threads.

Since nobody actually creates or contributes to posts in this forum anymore (since certain changes were made) I am posting this as a test.

Does anyone miss the club threads?

It seems we have now reached zero participation on this forum.

Wrt Erling. There are always going to be rumours about this and that. Clubs and media trying to unsettle them etc. As Pep said, maybe Real M know more about it than he does!!

 

As for Pep. We have had him for a lot longer than we ever thought we would so yes, it's been great but it'll be a big wrench when he goes. I'm hoping that the professional way in which the whole club is run nowadays, that succession planning has already been well thought out.

Doesn't matter how much succession planning you do when a manager like that leaves. We know that better than anyone.

Correct, we've already got Alvarez to replace him if and when it does ever happen! 

Wow. Is that 3 City fans now on this thread? You'll be approaching your 'real' attendance at the Etihad soon

Yeah. I was getting a tad nervous as the clock was winding down that it was going to be one of those days

Apparently he doesn't like living in Manchester. Already won it all with City so wouldn't be surprised if he moves on in the next year or 2.

I don't think it will affect you too much. The big test will be when Pep leaves.

Ya fanny, did you even watch the match ? He won the ball back to set up Garnacho's 2nd goal & worked tirelessly throughout the match - I remember you said on here that he wouldn't even score 10 goals this season - Well that's his 10th, ya fanny 👍 

Wasn't it Mctominay that won back the ball?

Either way completely agree. Mavedol is so regularly wide of the mark there's no point responding any more.

It is a good job we can attack , cos' we cannot defend . That Dalot needs to go , he just doesn't defend well , he is either playing people onside or too far forward to defend against his winger.

We have lost a lot of goals through his bad defending in the last 2 or 3 seasons.

We can create chances but we sure as hell waste a lot of opportunities. That game should've been killed off.

So, if City get found guilty of cheating, you lot have just made the man responsible for it all, your new CEO 

You lot? There's none of us lot left in this thread, it's been taken over by boretards.

We are giving far too many goals away from corners and free kicks.

I always thought De Gea in his younger days was frightened to come and help his defenders out with a punch ,  but he did improve as he got older.

This keeper appears to be glued to the line . he needs to start showing a bit of authority in the 6 yard box or we will keep conceding , and he will have to go.

Agree with all that

Yes, and he seems about as motivational as a pickled squid...........one of many poor choices for a manager, and of players.

Who says pickled squids aren't motivational????

Heres one for you Rick

 

Congratulations to Manchester United for setting a new record in the UCL . Most conceded goals in the group stage by any English club ever !!! 

The UCL ? Mr anti UEFA is calling it the UCL 😆
