We actually won that game 4-3, but I know what you mean. Barnsley were near the bottom at the time and we were cruising, but by the end of the game we were desperately clinging on! By the end of the season we finished outside the play offs and Barnsley were promoted. Ben Turner getting injured...

A squad that still made the play offs! I wouldn't expect too many newbies unless we sell any of our major players Other than a loan goalkeeper and a back up right back I would expect it will be one in one out.

Norton-Cuffy's clear improvement is an example why some of our fans should look to give Bassette more of a chance. Players that age with potential can make giant leaps very quickly from season to season.

I think the 01/02 kit was much better, but it seems to me a lot of people judge the kits by the team they associated playing in that kit, hence the 19/20 promotion winning kit seemingly being preferred in this instance. An all sky blue kit goes back to the origins of Jimmy Hill's Sky Blues and...

Let's see where is at the end of the transfer window. I've seen reports that PL teams are interested but that Sheffield are currently demanding a hefty transfer fee.

Bill Glazier v Arsenal 1972 Glazier was a photographers dream as he was a very athletic goalkeeper, which always added extra panache to his saves.

Don't get me wrong, the FA Cup is a completely different matter and is a competition I always want to see us give our best shot. The League Cup however is just an unneccesary distraction and there is pretty much no real reward until you reach the semi finals. Only last season we had a 'glamour'...

Never too bothered about this competition. I hope Lampard plays our squad players. If they are good enough to win the game fantastic, if not then so be it.

Forgotten his name now but Big Ron bought a Ghanaian 'wonderkid' who scored in the League Cup for us and then never seemed to play again.

Peter Vincenti was a frustrating watch.

I think one person wanted him. Wasn't it the guy who provides undecipherable graphs?

Sorry to poo poo your story from the Villa physio you know, but surely nobody is training right now? Its still a week until the beginning of July, which is when Championship teams usually start back at training.

Steve Walsh was the stuff of nightmares :eek:

Mick Harford and Chris Whyte only played once, but both played a big part for us in those games.

The Clock End was closed so City fans were put in the stand next to it, but there were probably only about a 1,000 of them. I was in a group of 8 London based City fans that got tickets in the Arsenal seats close to the City fans. We kept fairly quiet until the 2nd goal but all stood and cheered...

To be fair while Quinn obviously deserved MoM for the goals, Wegerle and Ndlovu also tore their famed defence apart. It also looked like we had unveiled a future star in Tony Sheridan, unfortunately his career with us effectively ended within the next week.

We need to see how Bassette is looking pre-season, but I'm not sure loaning him out is a good move on our part. There is no way he will go on loan to league 1 regardless.

Trying to fit in a Lampard 4-3-3 off the top of my head my team would be: Westwood Van Ewijk McFadzean Turner Fox Rudoni Hamer Doyle Baker Gyokeres McSheffrey

I don't agree with the Haji hate and am with those who think we are better keeping him, but I don't see the point in finding an alternative hate figure instead. Morrell was not garbage. Yes he didn't have the quality that Stern John had, but you can't have a team of Stern John's or Haji...

He scored twice, once at West Ham and once at home to Norwich in the cup.
