But we’re desperate to get back there, yeah?

And yeah I did totally imagine that. The biggest spender in every PL season - and how they fared - Football365 Think what I was remembering was this article in the Coventry Telegraph, an interview with BR in which he says “When Ron Atkinson took over as manager we backed his judgement with...

Can’t speak for anyone else (obv!) but for me liking a player isn’t purely based on how technically ‘good’ they are or even if they ‘put a shift in’ (hi Max). There are just some players that suit their role, are enthusiastic in what they do, perform relatively consistently for their level, do a...

Love Mason, definitely one of my favourite players. Superb bit of business (watch him get sold at Christmas).

Yeah, the £1.50 one was basically a poster with a fixture list on the back (now on lad’s bedroom wall getting filled in every week with scores, motm etc).

For me CCFC > England any day of the week. FA cup vs World Cup? Only one choice for me. And I’d love it if England won something, anything really. But I’d love it way, way more if city won something. That said it is totally a personal thing and I fully get why people put country before club...

Weren’t we top spenders in the prem one season or did I imagine that?

My 11 year old loves them, gets them every game and reads them from cover to cover. He even makes me order any we miss.

I (stupidly) used it on the Oxford game with a vpn and it worked fine. I say stupidly as the full price was only something like €6 (think I was in The Hague at the time :)). Should work Saturday with a vpn.

On a side note, I don’t think I’ve used the word ‘helmet’ in that context since I was about 15.

Sounds painful, not surprised he wasn’t laughing.

Yeah, just kind of negates the ‘unfair’ promotion. Surely they’ll get -ve points as well.

I will admit he wasn’t man of the match ;)

As entertaining as this exchange is, I agree to some extent with Mr Thomas. Sometimes the ‘critical assessment’ of players descends into personal abuse that really isn’t necessary. They do have the internet in their hovels, you know? Saying someone needs to improve at crossing, tackling...

Also agree with Clint that he knew exactly what reaction he wanted and that in itself is a reason to find it out of order. Using sexual assault to score internet points, hmm.

Not sure comparing the upset that football fans feel about their clubs misfortunes to the emotional and physical turmoil that goes with something like rape is particularly acceptable on a public forum, but to each their own.

Wonder if they’d also get a points deduction.

Who threatens to ‘bang out’ a woman? FFS.

If that’s the game I’m thinking of we were 2-0 down at half time? We got there at half-time and the guy on the turnstile said we shouldn’t bother as it was already 2-0! As we’d just driven down from Cov we went in anyway. And 2-2. If it was the game I’m thinking of...

In all seriousness (and I’m not advocating a return), a Doyle type of player might have been useful against Mackie. He took the piss and got away with it. Should have been off at one point and didn’t even give away a free kick. Doyle would at least have made the ref aware of what he was doing...
