Blimey, that's a long time to hold a grudge. Are you sure you're not a Sunderland fan?

IIRC our bid for Francis was cash plus 3 players. I think that 2 of them were Harry Roberts and Jim Hagan, but that may be my memory playing tricks.

"Only two clubs had pockets deep enough to match Birmingham’s asking price: Forest and Coventry City."
Now we don't have pockets. Or trousers

I'm with Clint on this one - grudges run deep. I still find it hard to warm to Ian wright, not over what he said about us - that was laughable but that time at Highbury when he deliberately put his knee into Oggy's face in a goal mouth scramble. It was yards in front of us, no question of his intention.
Don't get me started on Nicky Summerbee..... And there was that time Charlie Austin, playing for Burnley shouted at one of our ball boys.

Get over it. Childish crap. I can understand those players holding a grudge, especially Frogatt, but supporters?
