How does cancelling the season help clubs in financial trouble? Surely these clubs would rather restart the season, so as to bring some much needed income in.

Lee Dixon's own goal at Highbury was a bit special :)

So many of our greatest memories of following City are not only connected to the football, but to the sharing of those days with our support. If you think of the Wolves promotion game, the last gasp relegation escapes, 1987 and our trips to Wembley, the play off game at Notts County etc, all...

Covkid - no the film is recent, from last year. It colourized old WW1 footage and used lip readers to translate the Tommy's words captured on film ,which they then dubbed over it. Absolutely brilliant film making, and makes it really come to life. I watched it in Warsaw last Summer, and the...

I really don't get the unbridled hatred some of our fans have towards him. He isn't good enough to play for us right now, but he isn't playing for us, so what's the problem? He was a promising player when he first came into our team in the Championship as a 17 year old, which is why Newcastle...

My first game was as an evening game against Arsenal in August 1972. I remember entering the stadium where the image of the floodlights, the green grass and noise of the crowd immediately won me over. I don't remember the actual game particularly other than it finished 1-1. The 11v11.com site is...

Yes it was played at the end of the film, 'They shall not grow old'. A film I would recommend watching to anyone whose not seen it. I defy anyone watching it to not to be moved to tears.

You don't seriously buy into this fanciful nonsense do you?

Is there really that much in it? Sterling's been a flop this season at Wigan, whereas Grimmer was one of Wycombe's top players as they reached the top of our league. Their subsequent decline has coincided with Grimmer getting injured. Its irrelevant anyway, as Dabo is light years ahead of both.

I'm not sure Scowcroft was ever an out and out striker like Morrell was, and I think before moving to the wing he had mostly played in a deep lying number 10 role (if you know what I mean).

Of course, but that applies to the youth system of any club. Only the best of the best make it through, most fall by the wayside. Doesn't mean we shouldn't get behind those youth players given their chance in the first team though, as those few that do succeed, make it so worthwhile for the club.

We'll have to disagree on him being a fans favourite. In my view he wasn't targeted by our fans because he so obviously gave his all, but that didn't make him a 'favourite'. I do agree that League 1 was probably his more natural level, but he did well there, the season after leaving us being top...

Morrell wasn't awful in my opinion. We signed him as a goalscorer and then proceeded to play him on the right wing. I don't remember him being 'hero worshipped' either. We have certainly had many far worse players.

Never been comfortable with stick given to home grown players, or those that you can see give their all, even if they might be limited. If people hide its a different matter, and I can particularly remember Runar Normann and Julian Gray being the worst examples of that, and fully deserving of...

Not as slow as Kevin MacDonald maybe, but Jose Perdomo also moved at a snails pace. Also remember Darren Currie who must be close to being the slowest winger there's ever been.

Had a look through old programs from our relegation season and think it might be from our home game against Leicester, where we had 9 internationals in the starting XI and another coming off the bench. The team was Hedman (Sweden), Telfer (Scotland), Breen (Ireland), Konjic (Bosnia), Williams...

There were a lot of capped players in our Prem relegation season, but before that did Nilsson, McAllister & Strachan ever play in the same side?

Jim Blyth Roland Nilsson Gary Gillespie Trevor Peake Bobby McDonald Tommy Hutchison George Boateng Steve Hunt Peter Ndlovu David Speedie Cyrille Regis No one recent, so my Non Premier Team would be: Westwood, Dabo, Keough, Turner, Fox, Thompson, Safri, Wise, McSheffrey, Clarke, Wilson
