    Our finest point in history

    That's a great question. We've had some great eras and teams: The Jimmy Hill revolution and promotions to the top flight. The fantastic attacking teams of the late 70s under Gordon Milne: Wallace, Ferguson, Hutchison,Yorath Blyth. Dave Sexton's young team in the early 1980s: Sealey,Thomas...

    Notts County Second Leg - where does it rank?

    Got it CC4Life and understand it's an individual thing. But whatever the result on Monday, I'm still going to remember last Friday as my favourite game for the total experience. And I've been to most of the biggest games over the past 40 years. Anyway like you, CC4 life and bring on Wembley!!

    Have we ever played a game in the season later than the 28th May? I don't think so.....

    Notts County Second Leg - where does it rank?

    DDJ, we will! As you say it was the context of the game that was the key here. So many factors came together at one time.

    Could not agree more Irish Sky Blue. Exactly how I feel.

    Notts County Second Leg - where does it rank?

    A very good friend of mine from Croatia watched the game on TV from afar. His first time watching the City live. He absolutely loved it. Couldn't believe the passion shown by the team and the fans. For him what he saw was miles better than the Cup final the following day or games in the...

    Notts County Second Leg - where does it rank?

    A week on...... I've been to some of the most memorable games over the past 40 years including, West Ham semi-final first leg, Man Utd. 3-2, last day miracle at WHL and 4-0 Liverpool in 1983. For me the Notts County game is instantly and already up there with the very best. The timing of the...

    most ever CCFC fans in one ground

    Ring of Steel. Great story. I've always had huge respect for Errol Christie (RIP) but that respect has just increased even more. What a man he was.

    Player Ratings

    100% agree with this. Haynes had a nervous couple of minutes at the start but in my opinion fought back excellently. I believe he will play at a higher level - he has pace and good attacking attributes. As Mucca says how many of the goals conceded have been from his channel over the last few...

    4000 to Notts County Possible?

    Harry - as soon as you read that you'd parked your van 'in an estate around Tottenham' I knew there would be a bad ending to this. That's a brave move in itself. One of the most unpleasant areas around London - always felt relieved to get out of there whenever I saw the City play. As I said...

    4000 to Notts County Possible?

    I was there as well and saw both sides. Hand shakes and congratulations at first from some of the friendly Londoners. Minutes later I was in the wrong place at the wrong time and in the midst of a clearly pre-arranged punch up between the Legion and their equivalents on the other side. At...

    Kapowaz you'd have some more credibility in that response if you hadn't just designed a badge with the gayest looking elephant in world history.

    A new CCFC club badge

    Very akin to watching the City I'd say - a red hot poker up the jaxxy actually sounds a lot less painful to me vs. watching us over the last 17 years.

    A new CCFC club badge

    Loving the details - absolute genius. I've been laughing at this for hours. Just need a photo of Joy in this on her way to another court hearing to make it perfect.

    A new CCFC club badge

    First of all I admire the commitment and creativity. But I think a big problem is that the elephant looks about two weeks old and pretty effeminate. Not something that the lads on the pitch could wear with pride - although I guess the oppo might collapse in laughter giving us an edge.

    Match Thread Coventry City at MK Dons Match Thread - Saturday 27th Jan

    Brilliant photo. Tremendous passion. Football at it's very best. And the bloke next to the Mad Hatters seems to have taken a bit of a tumble. Mental celebration and highly justified!!

    Biggest Transfer Shock

    Getting £500,000+ for Garry Borrowdale from QPR also had me falling off my chair at the time.

    Biggest Transfer Shock

    Which transfer in or out has shocked you the most in watching the City - caught you completely off guard? For me it was McAllister joining from Leeds. Showed that for the first time that the club had real ambition and was prepared to compete with the big boys. On reflection it was the wrong...
