I just looked and saw that Eric McManus was only 19 at the time of the Bayern game. That's terribly young for a keeper and to play in a major European game too. Wonder how we would have got on with Bill Glazier in goal, who was amongst the best goalkeepers in the land.

From the information I heard, there was a bit of a cock up. Someone was tasked with bringing a face to the club to up the club's profile and they were supposed to have recruited... But they got .. Instead. And not only is he not very good on a football pitch, he also looks terrible in...

It's his PTBI that's the problem I believe. Pretending To Be Injured

Another very small regret, has been my buying CCFC calendars in the past. Think I only did it twice and on both occasions by the time I got to half way through the year, more than half the players would no longer be with the club.

Not surprised he didn't let you go into the West End. Not with your having that username.

I was just thinking back and the one big regret for me was not watching the Sky Blues beat Bayern Munich, when we qualified for Europe that one time. It was 1970 and I was still a young kid. We had beaten Trakia Plovdiv in the first round. We had played them away in the first leg in...

Seems to have gone off on a bit of a tangent on the Onyeka front, but to continue on a tangent, I am wondering how disadvantaged we will be for not having a category A academy? So it's a 25 man squad in the Premier, but then no limit on players 21 and under. They are exempt. I am thinking so...

I think that's the way you have to look at it. Same when we were top and teams were gaining points on us, but we stayed in 1st place The fact that Boro are still second even after dropping quite a few points, could be quite telling. One statement win and they could be flying again

I am not sure now whether I was in the Kop or the West End for the Carr/Hunt freekick. But it was definitely one of the two. In fact, I am 90% certain I was in the Kop

Yeah, you would think so. I think the possibles for being able to make a decent go of it in the Premier are ... Wright, Rushworth, MVE, Onyeka, Rudoni, Grimes and EMC Not sure they all will though. Most likely are Rushworth, Wright and Onyeka I too think it will be 5-6 new players in the...

We had just been promoted to what was then Division 1, so 1967-68 season

Sorry, I just had to post this. Had me chuckling away.

🤔 Are you replying to the right post? I was saying we look a much stronger side with FTT. They were all pretty poor in that first half against Swansea, but I wasn't talking about Swansea. I'm talking about the whole picture. Since FTT came in and all the games he's played in.

Dodgy genes?

Done that for years haven't they?

No, but having FTT enabled that tactical change. We had no-one else who could play the role Onyeka has been able to. So, so much IS down to him, because we look a much stronger side because he is now included.

Championship? What's that? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Everything he does is worldie. He does worldie tackles and has worldie energy and will score worldie goals. He does worldie wees and poos and worldie sneezes and burps and worldie ejaculations. Top bloke and if he was a girl I would marry him. Am even considering it anyway .

Yeah. Sad, but almost certainly true.
