In what could be a worse piece of writing than the City website claiming there is a place called "Benidrom", CT has let a vital piece of information out to the world that could give opposing sides a way to defeat City this season. Yes, City's pre-season form is showing that they are going to be as inconsistent as last season .. and the season before.
CT, speaking from the same taped recording used repeatedly in the last couple of years, said : "We've gone from one extreme to another. On Saturday we started off very brightly, played with purpose and moved the ball well but last night the passing was poor and we kept giving the ball away."
(here there is a pause as the City spokesman presses "stop" on the tape player, then play, then rewind, then play again, fast forward, then play)
CT continues "We couldn't penetrate and there were too many people making elementary passing mistakes. It wasn't the heat, we just let our standards slip."
Again the City spokesman fumbles around with the tape recorder and then plays a seemingly new, unreleased track.
CT: ""I'm trying to install good habits into them and one thing we must learn is that when we are losing, I've got to see more application and determination."
This last statement have taken many of me at the BCO by surprise. Is this a clever new tactic? Scare the opposition by making them believe that if they take the lead City will show 'application and determination' ... neh! 'MORE application and determination'.
City fans can only take heart from this last comment.
Or not.
