After we won the semi final, anyone who went to the remaining 4 league games were given some priority for Wembley tickets, those games were all sell outs as far as I can remember. I don't remember a requirement to buy a season ticket as being necessary to buy a cup final ticket. The following...

I think we took about 25k to the cup final. Gates were definitely much improved the following season.

If 50% of the Wembley attendance came to support the City I think we would all be happy. I think you underestimate how many of the 40k are City fans waiting for a reason to return.Even 16k to 22k is a lot more than 12k. The season of the "Entertainers", the late 90s we finished 14th, not really...

Not embarrassed at a game but later. My son and I went to see City play a pre season friendly at Shrewsbury a few years ago. We got caught out by the fact that this was the new Shrewsbury ground which we hadn't realised was in the middle of no where with no parking around. I think we were the...

Score is a bit misleading as City were leading 4-1 going into the last few minutes. Two late United goals made it sound a lot closer than it actually was. City completely outplayed them.

Will Tim now say at the meeting, judge me after talks with the council? If these talks do take place you would hope that Sisu are serious and do not simply go in with a set of demands and flounce out again if they don't get them. For the sake of the club something like this has to work. The...

Just thinking too that travel to some of those places in the days before motorways would not have been easy. Did you travel by car or train? How long did it take to get to places like Barrow, Carlisle, Workington, Gateshead and Torquay? The other thing that is quite scary about this list bearing...

Must have been great to follow that team. Mentioned on another thread today that I had been looking at stats for that season. Several gates over 20k the largest of which was 28k for the visit of Port Vale. City had the biggest gates in the division. So you will be one of the few City fans that...

One more day closer to Sisu leaving.

Stevenson and Willis under contract. Will they be here though?

The only reason we ended up in the fourth division is that the old third north and south divisions were being amalgamated and the fourth division formed. As far as I can tell ( I wasn't around at the time and stand to be corrected), the fourth division was formed from the clubs who finished in...

Do you know his email address?

More excitement in 30 seconds of that game than there was in the whole 95 mins on Tuesday night.

There's a guy works down the chip shop thinks he's Ghandi.........

Clive said later that it was the Jim Blyth ex City keeper.

He always made a joke of it by saying in interviews how he would look in the deaths column of the local Swindon paper to see how business was doing! I think It was both him and Mike Summerbee who were grave diggers.

Saw it was by Ghandi and Googled it when I got home. Can't remember my own phone number, no chance of memorising that!

Just had a look. It is Ian Gibson, the famous Gibbo who sadly died last year.

Ernie was a grave digger at one point before his career took off.
