I didn't say that. I said we was fortunate with the draw, which we was.
The only PL team we played we lost to. We didn't deserve to lose but we did.
Europe came as a consequence of benefiting from a good draw.
Our European experience was an embarrassment.

Great days out for the supporters, yes. Meanwhile the players get on an aeroplane, train and play a game on a Thursday night, board for the return flight Friday, train and prepare for what really matters on ideally Monday night, but more than likely sometime Sunday.
 
Second thoughts then, we should get ourselves a lynch mob and march onto the stadium and drag them out by their legs, strip them naked and hang them from Anlaby Road flyover. Would that suffice ?
Do you know I’ve worked very closely to at least 5 owners one a very close relative and to be honest none have had any respect for customers - they’ve all adopted a them against us approach - because it’s their own money those pesky nuisance customers want !
They don’t naturally recognise staff differences and use a broad brush for both staff and customers and suppliers - it dose not work for staff or customers . Invariably someone lower down has to face up on their behalf - in the case of City the manager when we have bad results . I’ve managed a lot of people and the owners ego and ambivalence towards people down the chain has been a real pain to deal with . The Allams are no different in running City that way , but they misunderstood the difference between fans and customers . Let’s hope the new guy does !!

Supporters want to see their side in the Cup Final. The Sunderland fans still hurl this at Poyet.
Us beating the blunts in the semi final nearly made up for Burnley, nearly.
Agreed fans want cup finals, that is the whole point of football
All this PL staying in a division but no chance of a trophy is bollocks.
A good promotion push excites fans.
It's a odd thing that I want City to do well and get promotion but then I detest the PL and the greed of the select few.
and the diving and the VAR and the plastics etc
 
I was a founder member and used to be sat in W5 from the opening of the Stadium. The Allams forced a lot supporters to relinquish their seats with unprecedented price increases and the abolishment of concessions! I had previously been a season ticket holder in the West Stand at Boothferry Park. Living a round trip of 360 miles for a home game. I could never forgive them for their treatment of fans and the lack of communication with disabled supporters.
I was quite proud to be a Founder member of the Stadium and it was nice to be recognised with the other founder members on the Board in the foyer of the Main entrance.
The said Board being removed during the present ownership it’s whereabouts not known!
I’m not a big fan of the Allams and they could have achieved so much without alienating supporters.
I for one can’t wait for a change of ownership and the running of the Club by football minded owners.

One of the unseen knock on effects of the Allams actions has also resulted in not only the Disabled concessions being removed, (and despite other concessions returning, this one never has) , is due to them closing down West Upper, wheelchair users who can only used wheelchair spaces, have been sardined into the platforms to what can only be described as dangerously overcrowded areas.

…could i suggest strung up by their ankles and we then hit squash balls at them
 
This is a total stab in the dark and probably bollocks from me. Private jet charter Learjet 35A Reg D-CQAJ arriving from Germany at Humberside airport in a couple of minutes time. Acun's instagram feed has him in Heidelberg, Germany today so could have hopped on a charter to get over here. This isn't his usual pilot / private jet as seen on previous posting though. So please take this with a huge pinch of salt.

Yet we were nowhere near a sell out whilst Sunderland sold out their allocation and could have sold more. If the game had been at Sunderland they would have packed the place and we probably wouldn't have sold out our allocation.

True.
The rivalry between the Geordies puts bums on seats IMO.
If there was only one club up there I don't think their gates would be anything like what they get. Still impressive though supporting their home town club.
