HT 0-0 That will do. Chris needs to earn his salt now.

Relief for 15 minutes. We have kept the City and all their millions to 0-0 in the first half of our first game in the top flight for years. Wonderful achievement. Come on The Albion.

We just need to be calmer in possession. We know City are stronger and will see a lot of the ball but we are causing ourselves problems by giving it away cheaply. Saying that the last 10 minutes was more encouraging

No pace at all. We should have bought a bit more pace.

Shame you didn't tell PW and the recruitment team that weeks ago. They could have done with your help, obviously.

Could be worse, although I'm struggling to see how it could be much better!

Man City are better than us at football, but the lads are showing a lot of heart. I'm not expecting anything but at 0-0 we're obviously still in it.

Solly has been outstanding in the first half as well.

Marvellous stuff so far.
Emotional day for all round and 0-0 at half time against City seems world's away from my trip to Rochdale in the pissing rain many, many years ago.

I don't want to sound like a born again Christian but Jesus is good. Really, really good.

We can't get near him.

That said not a bad half. We do need to get better on the ball though.

They had 9 shots so we could be 9-0 down.....that's how worse it could have been.

City players are hungry. Contesting every ball and giving us no space. Hughton needs to get out the hair dryer.

Can't expect a huge amount from Propper given how little time he's been with the squad.
