    Micky Quinn Talk sport

    I thought it was reputed that Dion signed a £16K per week contract in 1998 with us to make him our highest ever wage earner? I could be dreaming that but the figure sticks in my mind for some reason.

    Bolton Wanderers forward Sanmi Odelusi

    He did have Moussa and Baker creating chances for him and Leon Clarke alongside him. I'd score goals in L1 with that sort of support.

    Strachan days

    My view, based purely on the squad at his disposal, is that Phil Neal was our most successful manager. To finish midtable in the PL 93/94 with a squad including Morgan, Rennie, Harford, Boland, Flynn, Sheridan, Pickering (Ally), Robertson, Jenkinson, Darby, Kruszinski and Gayle was nothing...

    Lowest ever season tally for a City top scorer

    Cheers. So our top scorer has finished with less than 10 goals 3 times in the last quarter of a century and two of those ended in relegation.

    Lowest ever season tally for a City top scorer

    So as we head into February with our top scorer on 5 (isn't it great being a City fan?), does anybody know what the lowest ever figure is for our end of season top scorer? My distant memory seems to recall Speedie was top with about 9 in 89/90 and possibly Gallacher with 9 in 91/92.

    Rochdale

    I do feel genuinely sorry for supporters of your generation. You have only known shit. At least us older fans have the memories of some great times to hold onto during this shit. I don't know how you've stuck it out!

    Are We The Worst Club To Support In History?

    Depends on what period you focus on. On the one hand we haven't had a top 6 finish in any league since 1970 (the only team in the FL that can 'boast' such an unachievement), have surely the worst owners in the country, and we rent our stadium off an egg-chasing franchise. On the other hand we...

    sign of the times at CCFC

    1-1. I seem to remember vaguely through a haze of Stella and Sambucca that McDonald missed a sitter in injury time. Useless tosser.

    sign of the times at CCFC

    Last time was the first game of the season so not comparable.

    Back then he wasn't brilliant , but in this current team .........

    Anybody, literally anybody that played for us in the top flight. Even Leigh Jenkinson and Martyn Booty.

    Ricoh or Richo

    My favourite is the use of "of" rather than "have" - "Would of", "Should of".

    What Other Team Could You Support ?

    Weymouth - have always been my 2nd team and they would default to number 1 if City ceased to exist.

    Yeovil Away

    Despite the game being played almost on my doorstep I've chosen a night away over this. With my wife! I never ever thought after 32 years of fanatical support I would become a fair weather fan but cannot take anymore of us slowly but surely sinking into oblivion. I never thought I could...

    Lowest crowd since 1962

    I'm used to giving up entire days and spending in excess of £100 to get to home games. I can't believe that I am now so disillusioned that I still haven't committed going to Yeovil next week despite it being only 25 miles away from my house. I never in a million years thought I could ever get...

    I take it Frank has not met you yet Stupot ;)

    Robins has been slagged off incessantly on this board since he left and I was roundly mocked when I suggested he was our best manager since we were relegated from PL. The facts are that from October to Feb when he was here only Bmth could match us and both of us were averaging over 2 pts per...

    None because its all a bit embarrassing that you lot hate all these teams so much despite them not giving a toss about us.
