Any Rumours From The Ground Today?

Sat Jul 31, 2010 6:42 pm

Any sign of Koumas or Bellamy in the stands? Was Jay in the dugout or at the cinema? Perhaps Tony Fernandes gave up the Hungarian Grand Prix for a City team playing their last pre-season game with three friggin' trialists. :D

Not rumour but FACT Kev Mcnaughton WAS carrying an injury at the end of the season, which explained why today he was back to his best, and wasn't 100% in the play-off final.

Seemed a different player today compared to the end of last season.

Honestly - I asked him myself. He looked a little shocked by the question, but answered me straight. It obviously wasn't bad enough to stop him playing, but it certainly hampered him.

You don't go from being Super Kev to the shadow he was in the play-off semi and final without something being wrong ;)

Great guy, came up to the premier club lounge and signed the kidsprogrammes and had his photo taken with my son and daughter and a few other kids.

None of those unfortunately but there was one piece of good news - no fat money grabbing Yorkshire wanker in the posh seats.

There was also a rumour that Gavin Rae is a goal scoring, ball winning "Destroyer" in the middle of the field but that was soon shown to be incorrect.

The only rumour i herd was down the Ninian Park pub, when the landlady said that club officials had told her they were expecting a 15.000 crowd. I hope all that food didn't go to waste!
