    I haven't taken anything you've said seriously since you said Tony Booth had the record number of boxing wins.

    Add "throw ins" to this also, do my head in, we may aswell save time and give the ball to the opposition, it goes straight to them anyway, no movement, we just wait for the ball to come to players. How easy and least strenuous training to practice throw ins, corners, set pieces. I can't remember the last creative set piece routine/corner from City.

    Also regards Phelan, does anyone know what he actually brings to the team? This puzzles me. I thought initially he would bring fresh ideas and challenge Bruce, not just a "yes man", but apart from seeing him shouting at a few players during a match now and again, I don't see anything different, just the same stale, out of ideas, play.

    Tony Booth has had, or did have, a record number of professional bouts.

    We haven't played the same players. Bruce has chopped and changed too much. He doesn't know his best team.

    I agree, in fact we have had 2 or 3 years of poor corners. Bring Andy Dawson onto the coaching staff and he could show them taking corners as well as scoring direct from free kicks near the box.

    From memory I already know that Archie Moore has had more fights than him, more wins them him and wouldnt suprise me if he had more KO wins that Tony Booth had fights. Nevermind the countless others I could find if i could be arsed.

    Numbskull.

    The "Old *****ose" Archie Moore had 220 Pro Fights the 'official record is held by a bloke from Leicester called Len Wickwar who had 465 (some say 470) fights.
    It is rumoured that an aboriginal 'tent fighter' had over 2,000 but there is nothing official. There is also a fighter known as 'Abe the Newsboy' is said to have had over 1,000 fights but again subject to scrutiny.
    Maybe Bruce is going in for Boxing Promotion. (20 laughing heads)

    Interesting. It's hard to imagine someone having that many fights and still being able to function on a day to day basis.
