I get it too. I think it's because we're unfashionable. I think Dublin is sat alongside pundits who played for big clubs and feels like he has to be one of them. Even though CCFC was the height of his career achievements (Golden Boot and England call up)I sort of get where Shmmee is coming from though. He's never as enthusiastic about us as he is his other teams on his socials.
I think the way we acted towards him after he left may have soured things. Shame because he's my favourite player ever.
Did he not play for England more when he was at Villa?I get it too. I think it's because we're unfashionable.

No. 3 caps at Cov, 1 at Villa (just after he signed there)Did he not play for England more when he was at Villa?
Scored more goals that year than Wright and Ferdinand who both went and couldHe was hard done by not to go to the World Cup
........ and he could have come on and taken a penalty instead of David Batty!!Scored more goals that year than Wright and Ferdinand who both went and could
Have thrown him on in defence if needed
There is that... but Dublin missed the first pen in a shootout 3 months prior to the World Cup........ and he could have come on and taken a penalty instead of David Batty!!
Don’t remind meThere is that... but Dublin missed the first pen in a shootout 3 months prior to the World Cup

If we were ever having a statue of a player then surely Tommy Hutchison would be top of the list!Was thinking the other day about statues outside the ground like Arsenal do and who ours would be.
A Dion statue would be amazing.
Rotherham with a strong side out - if they are 'fit' (only one usual guy missing, I think - Wing?) - interesting to see how they perform this evening.
Surely they would have to be isolating if it was themOn paper it's the strongest side they've fielded in weeks. As you say depends how fit they really are though.

Pity the City players weren't allowed out for exercise tonight.You'd think. According to the manager over half the squad & staff had it. He was bemoaning that the others couldn't stay fit as they live in apartments which was pretty odd as pretty sure you're allowed out for exercise??
I sort of get where Shmmee is coming from though. He's never as enthusiastic about us as he is his other teams on his socials.

Concerning about Swansea, could have done with them turning upWell, so far, Swansea are dreadful. Playing like a team at the wrong end of the table.
Birmingham aren't much better, mind.
They're just pumping up meaningless long balls into the Birmingham half and nowhere near their forwards.Concerning about Swansea, could have done with them turning up
Just realised we've got a game in hand on them still ..really could do with them losingThey're just pumping up meaningless long balls into the Birmingham half and nowhere near their forwards.
They have been so poor so far.
