Very true. Bell has been a bad signing. No-one can argue otherwise, talented or not. We just can't afford to carry passengers.

Was just poking fun. I was joking yes, but it wasn't a 'joke.' If it were a joke it would have a punchline. People need to lighten up. You're like bears with sore heads! ;)

It's been a waste of wages for sure. 85 games in 4 years. If we can get him fit I would be looking to offload him. Football is a business and cannot be run on sentiment. His wages could bring in a good player who will be more readily available.

I know. I said Andy Thorn was fat once and I had to endure 6 days of hate mail and death threat phone calls and rotten eggs thrown at my windows. All the neighbours sent me to Coventry too. Which was pretty pointless of course, cos I was already here.

Hand in your Sky Blue membership, remove your tatoo's and find yourself with a lifetime ban from City games you traitor!! :whistle:

Yep. Feeling pretty smug right now to be honest. And Joy Division (great band by the way), you're at it again! :D 'Laying into him?' Seriously? Am I on 'Game for a Laugh' or something here? ;) You scamps!!

Where's the daily jokes then? Thought he's disappeared into the ether, along with all the jokes. Of course I will support him. There is many a player I don't rate at all, but the moment they pull on that Sky Blue jersey I back them 100%. :p He does have legs made of glass though.

That explains it then! :D Anyone know what the antonym of 'tantrum' is? I want to put into words what I am feeling right now. Besides, my missus is threatening to slap me if I don't 'get that soppy grin off my face!'

Outrage, Rich? So far from reality it's untrue. I am sitting here on the sofa and my wife keeps looking at me and asking me why i have a great big grin on my face. Told her that's it's because we have some wet lettuces on the football forum who are getting their knickers in a twist! :D:D...

Slated? i think some people are getting very, very touchy, very, very easily. I wasn't slating you, just found the thread unnecessary. How on earth is that slating? Just questioned the need for the post. And I was just making a bit of fun of David Bell's injury proneness. From that people...

How dare you!! I am deeply insulted! Call yourself a fan? :facepalm::facepalm::facepalm:

No-one has said they're not going to support him. but sorry, 85 games in FOUR years? He should have been got shot of a long, long time ago and it's only banter. Rip a player? Get a grip. Makes mental note. No jokes about Bell's glass legs No jokes about Andy Thorn's girth No jokes...

He's probably got a bad back ,so I wouldn't to be honest.

Hopefully the grass won't be too long so as to prevent tripping accidents and all splinters will have been removed from the bench. Basically I'd just put him through a chemical shower before kick off and wrap him in bubble wrap. He'll still probably end up being out again for 3 months with...

Sheff is a much better option than Fleck for me. Trouble is though, they don't usually play in the same position anyway, so it's a moot point. Fleck's off the ball play is quite shocking. Fully expect him to be dropped in favour of Bailey.

Thing is here too, we are all expecting to lose against Spurs so that game is an irrelevance. We lose that and no heads are going to drop from the players. As long as they put in a half-decent effort the spirit will be fine for Preston. And you are forgetting ..... our name is on the cup!!

But Rich you are talking about a premise where we lose 3 in a row. We have just got beaten for the first time in 2 months. Things have really been on the up and we are just 5 points behind 6th place. Too many if's in there for me and it does seem a bit negative after such a brilliant run.

Clarke is the better defender. Christie is better going forwards. I like them both, but Christie was poor yesterday and truly dreadful against Preston. Time for a change.

2 upfront changed our shape and it didn't work. Guess MR wanted to try DMC and Clarke together. There is no doubt at all about Fleck's ability when he's on the ball.

If if if!! If I was a polar bear then my bottom would be freezing. Let's talk about Spurs on Saturday. Lose that and then we can talk about Preston. Lose that and then we can talk about any effect it might have.
