   Thanks as ever Paul. Your report was you at your usual best. My only eyebrow-raising moment came with your rosy assessment of Colwill’s first 45 minutes.

   Siopis will surely see Bangura-Williams in his nightmares. If it is any consolation though, that boy will make a plethora of even better players look like eejits in the years to come. (Why incidentally is our UK scouting system so poor that we cannot see such players running out for the likes of Tooting & Mitcham United?)

   Looking at my notepad this morning, I note it says ‘oh no, City are playing out from the back again, and incapable of doing it, are immediately bringing pressure on themselves, when we have a glorious exponent of the goal KICK as our captain’.

   And then I have noted their outstanding second goal resulted from a fruitless attempt at tiki-taka near our right corner flag presenting Millwall with the ball to perform their moment of magic.

   The plusses of the night? Well, in no particular order…
   … the boy Fish (looked possibly a better partner for Goutas, than the shaky Daland); El-Ghazi (finally showing a bit of what impressed us when he wore the claret and blue); and Bagan (again showing he was Footballing Wisdom personified).

   But my award for the City stars of the night, goes to our two Sky interviewees. Chambers is marvellously assured verbally, and our new striker a real revelation… not just in his command of English, but his obvious depth of footballing knowledge.

   Oh and two words on referee David Webb…
   …’quite outstanding’.

   TTFN,
   Dai.
