Sometimes to go two steps forward you have to take a step back. Not saying we can't do it, but the likely major overhaul needed over the summer means that I wont necessarily consider being out of the top 6 a failure.

Isn't that borderline contradicting yourself? I agree with the first thoughts, but don't agree that mid-table would be failure. Going to be a tough league next season.

Think that's a bit harsh Leicester, Leeds, Southampton, West Brom, Norwich, Middlesbro, There are more clubs I could list, but to be insisting we should finish higher any of the above teams is a brave call, given the likely turnover in personnel. we may do it, but finishing 7th or 8th could...

Always gave his best, and as G said, seemed to be playing at times when injured. Slight worry is the breaking up of a team spirit, but hoping that Fadz, hopefully Cal O'H , Sheaf (with his winning smile), Wislon and co will hold that together.

That Johnny Wilkinson too.

Difference between upset and vitriolic about one of our players, particularly if that player has received personal abuse. We are meant to be City supporters.

Apologies, followed by sarcasm. No need. As @Evo1883 said, why would you hate one of our own players?

Yeah right Tell me who the next player to miss a penalty is in advance. If it's for your team, you always think a player is going to miss, it's the way of football fans. Did you think we would score the first 5? If not, who did you think was going to miss? Whoever it was, you were wrong. For...

With potentially a few creative midfield players, I'd like to find a quick Nathan Tella type loanee from a PL club. Particularly if we keep Hamer, I think someone who plays on the shoulder of defenders could be the answer, as could quicker attacking wing backs. Finding another Vik type player (...

Looks like a 'sweetie' but if he doesn't like the look of you. Got offered a 'shoulder to cry on' plus a 'virtual' box of tissues by another City fan who I see over the park. now off to see how Leicester are getting on before commiserating with my leicester supporting mate (a surprisingly nice...

If Dabo hadn't missed that penalty away at Plymouth, we would have (Captain Foresight :rolleyes: ;))

That's only because you're on here Pete. I'm off to walk the dog in a minute and I'll be fine (until the usual group of dog walkers start commiserating with me!

I was convinced Vik would miss, people around me were saying 'nooo Kelly' as he walked up. On the coach, everybody suddenly became 'Captain Hindsight'. Be honest, in those situations, you half expect every penalty taker for your own team to miss.

It'll be exciting to see a group of new players through the door. Just hoping that the team spirit that has been built up is maintained, if the 'gang' is initially split up. Have to remember that it's not long ago we thought we would implode when McNulty was leaving :rolleyes:

Cheer up Gary - I'm actually chilled. The Hamer injury was definitely the turning point. P.S. How mayny clairvoyants do we have in our fanbase; if I had a pound for every City fan who I heard say, 'I knew Dabo was going to miss' (they would have said the same for anyone who had missed). Hate...

It's whether we can use some of the Vik money to tie down Hamer and or/O'Hare, then find another 'Vik' for £1m. Easy peasy!

Still getting one, so no panic !

Yep - very impressive interview

Was in Block 231 - wasn't too bad where I was (felt sorry for the little lad aged about 8 in front of me, sobbing his eyes out after Dabo missed, and the realisation hit him; his slightly older sister also upset, trying to comfort him. Found myself tapping his shoulder and saying 'Don't worry...

I've had similar family issue from the start of the week - but it seems to have turned a corner big style yesterday, so I can enjoy today without worrying about it now. Hope your friend is ok.
