    What was your favourite ever season watching city in the league

    I remember the mist, the fear in the air after the game, the fantastic support in the ground, the wonderful performance but I think I am still shivering from the cold after windows were bricked in our coach. The 70’s were a wonderful time to be alive...

    Steve Hunt

    Good call but I must say I felt that Gary Gillespie was at a higher standard during that time and Danny Thomas shone brightly too.

    Strengthening in the summer

    McCallum has been exposed by the players in front of him on his side, He is often 1v2 and is damned if he commits and damned if he doesn't in some games but not last weekend where we went longer and had a system where we had forwards who could hold the ball and bring oncoming players into the...

    Steve Hunt

    Steve Hunt was a good player and was delighted when he was capped by England after he joined WBA. That said his stellar reputation with Cosmos was never quite fulfilled with us. Pele had a very high regard for him and his record for Cosmos was excellent. American team, Coventry, WBA...

    What was your favourite ever season watching city in the league

    That’s a tough one. 69-70 getting in to Europe, 77-78 was mighty fine, obviously 86-87 truly special, loved 97-98 and 99-00. Pretty much slim pickings every year until Robins came back and last season was great, tempered by playing in Birmingham yet somehow that made it more of an achievement...

    Least favourite Opposition player this season

    I like the way he causes panic. He is past his best but for nuisance value Akinfenwa is a great option to bring havoc. We play him a quite well but you can see fear in the way defenders climb all over him.

    Least favourite Opposition player this season

    I used to hate Dennis Wise until he played for us. This season Cook, Dean and Morrison stand out, that player who took Dabo out gets a special mention if I knew who it was.

    Crowds next season

    My fear is that people will have got out of the habit and for the young kids not got in to the habit of going to games. I hope I am wrong.

    I hope Brighton is okay, haven’t seen a post from him and I know he has been struggling. That win should put a spring in your step....

    Match Thread Brentford

    33 is not old and he is a player that can play on for a long time, I wouldn’t look to replace our most influential player. not sure why you think his shelf life is so short

    Match Thread Brentford

    Why would we look to replace him. He is just 31, never had pace....can go on for a good while yet

    Tonights games

    Derby, Forest and Wednesday will get more points than us IMO it’s whether we get more points than Blues, and Rotherham and past results are no indication of future performance. Twists and turns a plenty to go. Huddersfield dropping but others may too.

    Match Thread Norwich game night

    You can go on all night about the errors but the real killer is the quality of Norwich against our naivety. Basically a premier league quality side against a league one quality side . Results hopefully stay our way tonight and the positives are some time on the pitch for Kelly and some spirit...

    Supporters forum - 25th February

    You are aware that both Luton and Barnsley were in a worse position than us football wise last season. They got to stronger by staying up and hopefully so will we.

    Haha, just a tongue in cheek comment! Actually I have dropped from 2xl to large in that time so mine will be for framing rather than wearing I suspect. PM me for my secret to a better body....

    As an international user of ifollow for the past three seasons including this season I find it a remarkable service and for 140 pounds a season a bargain. The quality is excellent most of the time and the only time I remember a black out was the Portsmouth away game last season( not the best...

    Because you state as fact what you believe as happened but it is based on idle gossip, pub talk and conjecture. He was there, you were a supporter, let someone challenge his version with facts and I may be swayed.
