Sunday 2pm is not a great time to start the season. It is normally quite a subdued atmosphere.

Hopefully 3 points and off and running before the Sunday roast

Jarred Gillett will be the match referee overseeing proceedings in Manchester City's opening match of the 2026/27 Premier League season as Bournemouth visit the Etihad Stadium on Sunday afternoon.

Hopefully we will be singing

City win , utd lose, oh City , you got me singing the blues

I think City will win 2-1. A tough game. But yes City win United lose will get an airing.
