1986 Thought I was going mad there as I remember listening to it on the radio outside my sister's house when I was supposed to be inside, at a family party. She moved from that house in the late 80s

I have not and will not be going to any cup games this season... But, as a season ticket holder I will go to Wembley if we get there. An earned perk of being a season ticket holder for about 30 out of last 40 years

The powers that be should ponder this, 30 years ago you were allowed to tackle and try to kick the ball whilst in close proximity to an opponent. If you also inadvertently kicked the side of opponent's shoe it was not a foul ... Now you would get booked + a free kick... Ridiculous. Also if...

"Is that the sort of school where they dont have winners or no sportsday so the fat kids dont get upset?" Quite the reverse. Headteacher is a PE teacher. School a Sports specialism ... proper whole day Sports day ... everyone out on field, no excuses ... full sports awards afternoon, very high...

I think this is hilarious.:claping hands: How childish must footballers be if they need this kind of macho, infantile banter in order to do their job properly. :facepalm: They get paid enough to motivate themselves. Thank God I work in a more mature environment ... a secondary school. The kids...

Just stating I was wrong is not the same as demonstrating it. :facepalm: I accept your qualification of the original point: "No midfielder, who comes in with any reputation, leaves with his reputation enhanced." Gunnar was unknown. Norwood was from Man utd, highly rated, and is now with...

Perhaps you should accept that kids don't count as they are unknown when they arrive and unless they are useless the experience they gain will make them more accomplished players. Maybe you could name a midfielder we have had who arrived on a transfer, who was not a teenager and still left...

Norwood was not our player Gunnar was a kid with no reputation at all when he arrived. Neither were better players when they left than when they arrived, which is my real point.

Good luck Sammy. Always one of my favourites. No evidence that he thought he was better than he is ... Merely prejudice. Midfielders graveyard, the Ricoh. No midfielder leaves with his reputation enhanced.

The people who complain prices are too high are often the same people who, every day mind, walk across the road from their workplace, which contains a kettle and a kitchen of sorts, to spend £2.50 on a coffee in a cardboard cup, £2 on a cake and crisps, £2 on a sausage roll or pasty. They then...

I have always been quite indifferent to Baker... A few cameo performances, nothing more... But yesterday, in the first half, I was literally begging for the ball to go to him as he was the only player in sky blue who could control it and keep it for a few seconds. He was tidy, worked hard and...

St Michael of Doyle was one of the worst footballers to play for an extended period for us. He is a symbol of our decline. A pub player, ten a penny.

You can't reason with the unreasoning. Give it up Steve B50. Of course a supporter does not boo his own players unless the player has engaged in conduct which is unacceptable, such as abusing the fans. We have the, "I pay their wages so I'm entitled..." attitude... Which is always stupidity...

It will have been a great night if nobody who knows I support City takes the piss tomorrow and for several days.

Never realised it had such a slope. How did they get planning permission?

If the beer is flat and warm I may try some as I can't abide ice cold, fizzy beer ... That's lager, surely?

First send vouchers for Specsavers to the officials who denied us 3 goals and 5 points this season so far. If we had those points, a total of 8 and on the brink of the play-off places, there'd be no crisis.

I work with teenagers so they do

Remember, when all's said and done, it's only a game ... But when you return to the dressing room ... Vengeance will be mine ... And I know where you live Fwar, har, haaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrr

Firstly, people who boo or abuse their own players are not aiming to help the player or the team. They are like toddlers having a tantrum. They can't get their own way (which is the team to play well and win) so they throw a wobbly. No logic, no purpose, just anger and spite against guys they...
