Or stand and vocally support the team. It can be the crappest game going but if we win 1-0:with an injury time own goal Inwill go home happy. If we lose 5-4 I will be pissed off.Only bothered about games being entertaining if I am watching 2 teams I have no connection to. Each to their own…
Fair enough. You must have loved us reaching the dizzy heights of 10th in the form table back end of last season whilst struggling to string 3 passes together in the opposition half. Personally I thought it was dire and went home wondering if that would be the game where the little ones said 'I don't wanna come anymore dad'
Honestly Jim I've no idea what he was told when he signed. I'm so far away from ITK I'm literally in a different time zone. However, if the coaching staff don't think he's ready ( despite previous promises) then they put an arm round his shoulder tell him the bad news and get him out on loan for his own good. It's never pleasant but giving bad news is something you have to do as a leader and from experience most people take it was if you deliver it well.
Which is fair enough but its felt by people close to him that he has not been given a fair chance. Let's hope he comes back and wants to still play for City as there is a player in there for sure.
He’d only got a 2 year lease on his house as he thought he was going to get the chance to kick on and hopefully be viewed as someone we could sell should we not have got promoted in that time. Sounds like he’s not being loyal but to me the ambition to be a premier league player in 2 seasons is fine.
At the end of the day we're not Barnardo's - doesn't matter what he's been told, if he hasn't been delivering then someone else will get his place whatever he's been told - we're a business not a care home
Most pros playing away from their home area only take leases on 1/2yrs... absolutely nothing to see here
Fairs HT, your area so won’t argue, just knew that was his plan from one of his teammates at Chelsea.
Being there with just over 2,000 in BP for the last home game of the season in 1981 and just over 3,000 for the last home game in 1982 and being with 3,000 others whilst the 2 rugby teams were at Wembley and watching the Mike Smith and Dolan eras and more relegations than promotions I have seen far worse than what we witnessed in the 2nd tier of English football last year.
I was there from 86 onwards and never do I remember it being so boring. We were crap, yes, but even then it was fun atmosphere and not boring on the pitch. Cheer up Terry D was the best song ever to be sung at a City game.
Slightly different words to the ones I, and others, were singing. The views expressed in my posts are not necessarily mine.
Well, I hope he learned all he could . Not surprising, they haven't won a game yet, though they're one of the smallest budgets in the league and have been punching well above their weight for some time now. Danny Cowley is the favourite to take over at the moment.
Agree with Terry D song. And the other one about him, can’t remember the tune it was based on now. Thing is it was so bad Mauled By The Tigers started as ironic chant if we actually scored a goal and went in front.Reason it was fun was although the crowds were sparse is you were with like minded people not like now with people sat analysing every single thing and moaning about how bad things are when in reality they are not. We are an average medium sized club and some people expect too much.
Went to a City game with a Chelsea fan and he thought that song was one of the best he had ever heard at a football match.
Absolutely. Call me miserable but I liked it when the crowds were small and you knew everyone on nodding terms at away games. I will never grow tired of looking back on those Boothferry Park days despite the state of the club at the time I was going.
He came from Rochdale with a lack of knowledge... The views expressed in my posts are not necessarily mine.
