Fantastic line up. I'd have Gillespie ahead of Atherton. And although I've been very critical of Strachan as a manager on these pages, he was different class on the pitch (even at the age of 38) and certainly would be on the bench and most likely in any starting XI.

Good reminder. Need to add Steve Evans to the list of those we hate.

That's the one Gynns. It was interesting as Whelan was viewed as the returning hero by the Leeds faithful whilst McAllister got all kinds of abuse. Fantastic, fantastic moment when McAllister drilled home our penalty right in front of us - and boy did we celebrate. The best part was the...

Fantastic story and lots happened in the 70s and 80s that couldn't happen today - smartphones everywhere - just look at Deep Pockets Hickman. I did hear a similar story about Rosario introducing various groupies around the country to the City squad at away games - and I'm talking about quite a...

For sheer drama and tension, Spurs away to avoid relegation. We were doomed going into that game. Everyone knew it. We knew it. Traveled in hope and with no expectation. Immense City crowd that day - true supporters. Miracle at the Lane. Best experience ever - Notts County away second...

Leeds away. Boxing Day. 1-0 down. City fans making all the noise and we ramped it up as soon as we conceded. Stormed back to win 3-1. Huckerby was unstoppable, top class and ran past Palmer as if he wasn't there. Celebrating goals with strangers in the aisles. Epic memories.

I was there! And from memory it was Sunderland who went down.

Orange Ken Dulieu sitting on the bench in full coaching gear - stupidly fired as it was absolutely comical. I personally wish he was still there just for entertainment purposes.

Regis Genaux I also think KK's career suffered an agonising and painful death in real time as the home fans cheered his red card to the rafters (not our best moment admittedly)

Genius headline - 'take no post mortem'

Skyblueweeman - I think I can forgive you for for the Thompson error. But for saying "my bad" not so sure! :)

Agreed on the replacement SBD! I thought Dowie was rapidly running out of ideas though and the team was becoming painful to watch - although as you say in a long list of culprits "less so" is about right.

Eric Black Gordon Milne - although not sure why he left to be honest? Sillett - no way to treat a club legend and replacing him with Butcher was a disgrace

Mick Ferguson - icon. legend. and best ever comeback.

Allassani is very much on his way into this hall of fame.

Laughing out loud at the title - fantastic!

I hear you TTG! I’ve just never seen a keeper have such an immediate impact on the defence - or command the area so well. Your points are well made though and exactly why I began this thread.

very very decent that lot.

Not a bad shout but Fergie all day long for me.

Premier League players failing to score with slappers in the Pink Parrot - not sure how they could ever look in the mirror again to be honest. It defies belief. They will not be included in the Shagger's XI thread for sure.
