I'm still in touch with one of the GMK lads and travel to games with him regularly and he still speaks to the others from time to time i believe.I stood a couple of rows behind the guys from GMK..... Texas Holdem, Knowl, etc.
Used to get the train down.... then stop in that pub (Thomas Beckett?) which was between the station and the rugby ground. Tried to make the best of it but it wasn't particularly fun (particularly when the train was cancelled for a rail replacement bus service!)
Another sorry saga was that Brentford game where Fisher got roughed up in that bar in Ealing after the game....
Ok people could say he was unwise to be in there, but it was pure bullying of a guy on his own. Really was shameful.
The supporting of Wasps when they were partly responsible for our demise was mind boggling.Think the only supporters who deserved the animosity were those who deserted and started following Wasps. Pretty sure a lot of them are now back on the wagon after the “sad” death of them.
Add to that those who left for Coventry United as well. Their phoenix club.
Does anybody know any current Coventry United fans that deserted City back then? Love to know their thoughts on that decision now.Think the only supporters who deserved the animosity were those who deserted and started following Wasps.

1999 UK solar eclipse, was really dark, next estimated time is 2090 so ride the wave boys
ScabStill fucking bitter about fans deciding to actually watch the team they support.
You need to get over yourself pal-like I said in the original post didn’t appreciate the shit I got for watching City then and I don’t really get what you’re trying to achieve with this reply now.
Unlike you I didn’t shout abuse back at the folks on Sixfields Hill and I actually understood but didn’t agree with your choices.
It’s such a shame that you clearly can’t see that I made a different choice as a supporter of our team.
But as I said it’s ancient history now and hopefully City fans don’t have to have the same awful choice like we did back then.

I didn’t shout at anybody, I didn’t go there to stop people going in or to change their minds. The choice to go in or not go in was a matter of personal choice. Oh and by the way you were the one that brought this up not me.Still fucking bitter about fans deciding to actually watch the team they support.

Didn’t go to sixfields myself but those people kept the club running - SISU would have fucking waded it out with no fans in there at all and would have cut even more.Scabit was a choice and unfortunately you and a handful of others made the wrong one, personally I'm glad you got loads of abuse, you shouldn't have been there.
Just my opinion and feel free to fire back.

You’re not seriously saying you’re glad people got abuse for supporting the club?Scabit was a choice and unfortunately you and a handful of others made the wrong one, personally I'm glad you got loads of abuse, you shouldn't have been there.

I was the same. Only season I never watched city. Got season tickets for me and the grandkids, and traveled over to brum. Found that depressing,but stuck it out.I neither stood on the hill nor went into Northampton. It was the only time I have not followed City (even though I still watched out for their results) I believe everyone has their own right to decide what was best for them at that time. This to me is now way in the past and all I look forward to is my team getting promoted, so I can go to watch them in the premier league with my son who has never experienced that. PUSB
Same as, four of us got season tickets and went to Brum, was a pain, but we decided that this time it was different and them c*nty Wasps were kicking us out rather than us leaving ala Northampton. Don't know how many years I could have stuck it if Covid hadn't have come along thoughI was the same. Only season I never watched city. Got season tickets for me and the grandkids, and traveled over to brum. Found that depressing,but stuck it out.
Tell you what's embarrassing
Grown men arguing over who was right and who was wrong over something that happened over 10 years ago that none of us had any affect on
Take your heads for a shit and pick your fanny up, honestly at times feel some on here don't deserve these good times we're going through
Nobody was right or wrong it was a personal decision so wind your neck in and stick to your imaginary idk guessesTell you what's embarrassing

pissgate? did someone piss? or was someone on the piss?Burge sent off, Reda missing a penalty that I still have no idea why he took. Wasn't this the infamous pissgate game too?
I'll be honest, I didn't go again after this until Pressley was sacked. I hated him with a passion that was perhaps slightly irrational.
Touched a nerve poor babyI'll do what I want cheers you little wimp
I think without doubt the Sisu years are our darkest, but relegation under the debt laden stewardship of Bryan Richardson was pretty shit as well.
Yeah that home defeat to Everton in January 2001 I think was point where it felt like we were really nailed on to go downI think without doubt the Sisu years are our darkest, but relegation under the debt laden stewardship of Bryan Richardson was pretty shit as well.
That's awful banter
I was at that game, in the skyblue terrace. He broke his leg the other side of the pitch…we heard the crack from where we sat!There is an alternative low point. Worst conditions. Only one contender for me. Possibly January. Absolutely freezing cold. Pissing down with rain. Stood in the open on the Spion Kop with roughly 7 others watching a Simod Cup tie. Possibly v Ipswich. Definitely the game Lloyd McGrath broke his leg. Took about 3 days to thaw out.
