Pep Guardiola’s side will change in a carpeted supporters’ bar named after the former Cheltenham defender Jamie Victory, who lived the club’s journey from the Southern League to League Two, and to shower City players will take it in turns to exit on to the touchline and skedaddle down the tunnel in a towel and flip-flops.
