In the first half city looked like they had been out partying last night but as the old saying goes form is temporary class is permanent 

Looking like the arsenal of old 

The hooped horrors seem keen on these Japanese players one of them looks like Togo 

A good new year to everyone and a happy birthday to all the racehorses who now become a year older today 

Chelsea should kick Lukaku's arse into the reserves for a month he may have cost £97 million but he hasn't delivered the goods when playing 

Let's have it what's been your football highlight of the past twelve months and to make it more fair no winning 55 Is allowed 😉

The difference between AFCON and the Euros was that the Euros wasn't played half-way through a f*cking season!

Who’s gonna be second? Liverpool or Chelsea? (Both my early season tips as champions) Or the thoroughbreds coming up on the rails?

All the experts keep telling us city need a striker 🤣

Maybe we could offload Barasic to Newcastle for a mega fee 

The mans a fool

Scott Wright for me , he is  due a wee run in the starting eleven 

We seem to play our best in an empty stadium 😂😂😂

Three good points today and a jolly good team performance 

Plenty of goals today , just the ticket

Well, that was quite a year.  After all we've been through as a club and as a support, we got our title, as Champions of Scotland, back.  I doubted we'd ever get it, throughout the decade we struggled up the leagues and for the first couple of years back in the top division.

 

May 2021 will live with me forever.  What an outpouring of joy it was to see Tavernier lift that trophy.

 

Since then, it hasn't been straightforward.  We've lost our manager and his backroom staff but we have brought in a new man and from what we've seen, so far, there's nothing to be despondent about.  We are top of the league and we look capable of reclaiming our title.  

 

I'm a happy Bear and I'm looking forward to 2022.  I hope it's a year that brings more joy to us all.  

 

No Surrender.  🟥⬜🟦

That pitch reminds me of playing rugby, against St Aloysius, on their third pitch at Millerston.

If you  want complete verisimilitude, add a few molehills. 

 

 

Good players adapt to any surface
