Had a social media break for a few months. Left Twitter and trying this out for City news and views. Update - Now expanding on here to new horizons and following some non city stuff

Made it to half time but need to go now as work in the am.

Seattle defence looks good I hope they can win.

Enjoy the half time show all, I’ll catch up on that on YouTube tomorrow

I went to Seattle once so β€œcome on Seahawks!”

Until I go to bed soon. But I’m looking forward to checking my phone in the morning to see who won!

Shame this result wasn’t last week when I was having pints at Mary D’s. Celebrating with sparkling water tonight!

I didnt see that coming even before
Liverpool went 1-0. I didn’t think we had the fight in us from the start of the second half

ABSOLUTELY BUZZIN

CITY! CITY! CITY!

Good day of sport on tv today. Premier League, Six Nations but the highlight is of course the Curling!

It was abhorrent racism and that would be and should be the end of any other public figure. I kept checking BBC news website and they finally mentioned around 10 hours after he posted it. This should be headline news across the world.

This normalisation cant continue its disgusting

It seems like there is a hundred things a week to make you despise Trump. And flooding the zone is their plan. Sometimes something hits you in the gut though. Today I had it with the Obama video. How can this be just β€œanother Trump outburst?” It didn’t make mainstream news…

I’ve just realised the 5 connection! Yes all the 5’s (a bit slow this morning!!)

I know I didn’t expect us to beat them so comfortably!

Great family day out at the Etihad for @mancity.com women’s team in the WSL. My six year old daughter is already asking what’s the next game she can go to and made a sign with her two fave players - both no. 5 last night!

Heading to the Etihad for city women vs Chelsea with the family. Got tickets for kids fanzone so leaving now.

When I booked I didn’t factor in the men’s game kicking off as soon as this finishes. I’ll need a plan… and it will most likely involve dragging everyone to a pub straight from the game

Went to pick the car up from the pub earlier and as wife and kids were out for the afternoon thought I’d take a spin out.

Ended up stopping in Leigh. It was very productive

Currently no more gears

We’ve been very poor but I think they’ve been near there very best and it’s still 0-0 (just)

Step it up a couple of gears and cut out the silly mistakes and we could still win this comfortably

Was awake thinking about football at 5am this morning…must be derby day

Looks good to me. I agree I think Phil starts. Any other game he’s maybe rested but you gotta start him in the derby!

Freddie also told the throwers to go to the throw zone. I think he means the Oche!

The new bullseye isn’t the worst…however there’s far too much clapping

After anyone speaks there is applause…the more you notice the more annoying it is…

I’m sure their are more important things going on but I wanted to share

How Billionaires Broke The NFL's Most Loyal Fans
YouTube video by More Perfect Union How Billionaires Broke The NFL's Most Loyal Fans

Just watched this on YouTube. Interesting to see what may be coming over here! Personal Seat Licenses (possibly already here with memberships) and smaller stadiums so that the owners can create more demand and bring in β€œhigher value fans”
