    FA Youth Cup tonight v Stoke

    Anything below Academy 2 status would show very little ambition. It's great how strong our academy team is despite the facilities they use. The Higgs ( and indeed Ryton) are certainly below average compared to every other academy facility I've seen.

    Best City XI of all-time (Right-back)

    Danny Thomas for me too. Super ice cool under pressure. Would certainly have had a very successful career if he hadn't been crocked. 1970s

    FA Youth Cup tonight v Stoke

    THe long range shot in the first half actually went in. Hit the bar, bounced down 2ft over the line then out again. Lino was hopelessly behind play so no goal declared . City absolutely ruled the game from start to finish - how they only scored once I'll never know. Very impressive. Tony Mobray...

    Butts Park Arena is new home

    Sure I heard on BBC Cov this morning that Rugby Council last night announced their " Local Plan". Earlier this year it was mentioned that one of the club's preferred sites was within the borough and they needed to get their finger out to get it included in the plan otherwise it would pretty much...

    Shef Utd v Cov on Sky

    I bought a HUDL tablet just to use the Mobdro site. Works only on android but you can watch tv stations all over the world including the uk sports channels. Got mates who use it for live Saturday afternoon Prem games that are being screened somewhere in the world. Quality not hd but no dodgy pop...

    When is James Maddison returning?

    What's great about the squad at the moment is the number of game changing sub options we've got. Madders will be another of these until he regains his place in the starting line up.

    You don't know what you're missing!

    In a way, I'm more encouraged by the gradual increase in attendances than a one off full house. Always felt that last year's 28,000 against Gilliingham showed our potential but the reality was a hard core 10,000. Now that hard core base number is slowly rising (in the same way over the years it...

    Adrian Durham is a c@@t

    I doubt it. Newcastle are hardly going risk a young player's development purely because a WUM radio presenter thinks they should. If they recall Armstrong it will be because he's playing so well they think he's ready for a chance.

    Don't worry, think about poor Burton

    Don't really know what's embarrassing about this thread. It starts with praise of a very good win against Burton, and fair play to the bloke who I always found sincere and passionate about the club. He did like to talk about the group and intensity a lot though!

    Don't worry, think about poor Burton

    I bet they played with "intensity". He liked that word too.

    Fleetwood away

    Really don't want to play them in his first game. New manager impact and all that. That would be bloody typical.

    Is it Fred Crappit from Accrington?

    Potential replacement for Armstrong for next week...

    Played against Wanye Rooney's cousin so he must be good. Is that Wanye Test?

    BIGGEST club in the world

    Think the original post is being taken too literally. All he was saying was for him, CCFC are the biggest club in the world, and for what it's worth, me too. You can keep your Man U's and Chelsea's thanks, following a team like City is proper football "supporting" and at the moment it's pretty...

    Crewe - Guess the attendance

    Like you say, simple maths would have told them there would be problems. One poor woman behind a single window with several hundred tickets piled up behind her, serving one customer a minute is not going to shift many by kick off. Why on earth have the other window open for ticket sales when you...

    Queues at ticket office today

    Ta for that. Hope an announcement regarding ticket collection is made as the chances of anyone answering the phone must be non existent.

    Queues at ticket office today

    Can now go so bought tickets online this afternoon but it doesn't explain collection procedure very clearly. Does anyone know do I have to suffer the shop ticket queue during the day or are there options to pick up tickets at the ground before the game? Thought buying online was the sensible...

    Kyle Spence

    I think it's £40,000 per academy year.
