Ian Wallace, Dion Dublin, or Clarrie Boughton: we need a goalscorer! Frankly, we don't have to even go back through the ages: if we just had King still, we wouldn't be in this mess.

Always thought he had something to offer, but like a few of our players he's a confidence player. He lacks a level of composure, as some of his misses here-and indeed his general reaction before the Hibs goal!-indicate. But if he had a bit more self-belief, he has ability, as that goal and a few...

Not this again..Nick has already cleared that up: there are more than one person who disagree with you.

Leon Barnett helped me to understand the football phrase "head like a 50 pence piece". Dublin is probably the best, but Speedo the most emotive. I'll never forget that hatrick against Sheff Wed, outjumping men who towered above him. The bloke really could leap like a salmon.

Sorry but if I don't agree with someones opinion, then my view will clash with theirs. Not all my posts are disagreeing with people by any means, but if I can't take issue with what people say sometimes, then there's really no point me coming on here. I thought the idea of forums was to have...

So good, and unlikely, that it deserves two threads ;)

It was similar on the CT forum OSB, not to mention in the crowd. He always had good games mixed in when he was young, but rather was left in a few times by managers after long runs of games when he could have done with a breather. That said, he must have learnt plenty by having to cover ADZ's...

People thought I was mad three years ago when I raved about Turner, saying he'd be "better than Dann" and "our Tony Adams". Torchie obviously still does laugh at me for thinking that, but at least I don't quite look as crazy after Sundays performance!

No I'm not, I was making a comment that made as much sense as that saying that our outstanding player of the season "is bound to make a mistake sooner or later". That's just silly and very unscientific. And stop calling me a WUM, you WUM! If you don't like me or my opinions, just put me on...

He was generally the fans choice. "There'll be an uproar if he doesn't get the job" was a common attitude. You can't really blame SISU for that one. Sure it suited them that he was cheap, but we were very close to getting someone else in.

Yeah, and I'm really angry with Murphy for that error he might make in the next few weeks, probably... and that sitter Alex is gonna miss against Palace...:thinking about:

Couldn't agree more with this.

Stop calling people WUMS, you Wum!

How about.."With Southampton already promoted, a defeat at home to Coventry City will send down bitter rivals Portsmouth". You know it. :D

Yes he did, but we didn't even make the asking price. In fact our bid was labelled a joke by the Rotherham chairman.

Exactly. I was as livid about the sale of Turner as the loss of King, probably more so as Ben didn't particularly want to go, had signed a new deal, and could have been sold after 6 months of games for a lot more. Selling him as he returned from injury was selling him at his lowest ebb, and he'd...

Crikey, that probably wins Goal of The Season by a City player!

Well I do have to say, the determination and drive shown by Ryan Giggs to make that run at the far-post in stoppage time..and such technique with the outside of the foot..well, it was almost Jordan Clarke-esque! ;)

One of the happiest days of my life. I was still pretty young, and that was the relegation battle that really got me hooked. It really did seem like we pulled off something extraordinary to get out of it every single season of my youth! I'm almost feeling nostalgic at the moment..at least if we...

No, as he said himself in the car "And we were both there to see a winning goal in stoppage time at The Rioch for the first time ever! I don't know why I stayed for once..maybe because I felt like we were dominating so much, that it was just a matter of time". :D
