    City Not Appealed 10 Point Deduction

    Be fair - in any business there are roles were absolute loyalty are required. As part of his role he is directed to speak with the media about such matters...& through the loyalty demanded (sacked due to untenable due to lack of loyalty & reputation ruined making him unemployable vs golden...

    Idiot City fans at Bescot station

    You ought to leave her at home in future - go on your own m8 ;-)

    Tin-pot

    The "Tin-pot" refers to the JPT in the early rounds...& the manner some of the other posters refer to opposing teams. Do a search of the threads & I'm sure there will be lots of them. Largely disparaging references made a lot of the time suggests that's the view of many on the forum. We are a...

    Tin-pot

    Some of us are prepared for it but some still seem to expect to walk all over everyone in this league - as at the seasons start...it came across as if there was only Sheff Utd & ourselves in it for promotion...a few others seemed to think Swindon, Tranmere & Doncaster might pose a bit of an...

    What are you saying Walsall (who are storming up the form tables) aren't very good, so we are a joke? If you mean the stuff off-field...that can happen to any club that's had supposed "major investors"

    I wouldn't bank on that...current squad not enough strength in depth, transfer embargo, no money :-/

    Pressley

    How do you feel if criticised? Some people respond positively some people the opposite. So public criticism is ill-advised. Acknowledgement that we could do better is different to criticism. Fact is there are a fair few positive posts about today's commitment from the players. Whether people...

    Tin-pot

    Thing is that we shouldn't be embarrassed losing to these teams. It suggests a huge chip on the shoulder, arrogance & ignorance. We are where we are, we are who we are & we just have to be level headed & get to a better place as soon as we can.

    Tin-pot

    Exactly...Walsall & the other "Tin-pot" clubs have every bit the same right as us to be in L1. And since it looks most likely that we'll be there for at least another season - they had best get used to it, however embarrassed they feel & however much it hurts!!!

    Tin-pot

    Lets get this into perspective. Going into this game Walsall are the in-form team. Their record this year is superb. Skyblue fans who think these "Tin-pot" teams are going to roll-over for us every week need to get a grip...or be prepared for regular disappointment. Those moaning about...

    POINTS REDUCTION - a tad unfair methinks !!!

    Stop bleating! The rules are there for everyone & those that break them get punished. If someone is a murderer - should we not imprison them as it is also punishing their family? We broke a pretty significant rule & we're docked 10pts...it hurts...get over it!

    POINTS REDUCTION - a tad unfair methinks !!!

    Everyone plays by this 10point rule...yes it's harsh when you suffer at the hands of it - but how many of us have scoffed at Leicester, Pompey, Saints & co when it's happened to them :-(

    I guess so yes...the level of offence taken must be variable between individuals. That's why some aren't offended/bothered by what anyone else thinks of thee mum...others are deeply sensitive about it.

    Offence cannot be given...but can be taken. If you wish to avoid others taking offence then you choose your words carefully - we all do that already. It is sometimes, possibly most times that things are said without real offence being the intention...but it can easily be the end result.

    Rio Ferdinand

    I like to understand. Where I struggle is things like "coloured" to describe black people...er everyone is somehow coloured so it is a completely pointless adjective, but offensive??? Also, if someone calls me a "c***" & I am offended by it - does it become more offensive by preceding it with...

    Worst in the West

    Wolves even IF relegated this season are still ahead of us...I think finishing bottom of the Championship counts as higher (although on a downer) than mid-L1 positioning.

    Martin O Neil Sacked

    I think the manner of the defeat on the back of a poor series of results with no indication that there is likely to be an improvement did it. Listened to only a bit of the commentary on the radio - a rather weakened UTD side (if there is such a thing) were cruising 1-0 up about 35-40mins in...
