    Match Day Thread Notts Forest v Hull City

    This was my first match of the season - I'm a Hull exile living in Nottingham. It's great now to be receiving some respect from my Forest friends for the quality of City's performance. The counter attacking was a joy to watch. The performance bore no relation to what I had been reading or to our...

    Forest (a) - MOTM

    1. Toral 2. Bowen 3. Silva - much better than I'd been led to believe and delightful pass in the build-up to the first goal.

    Wigan (h) - MOTM

    Campbell Grosicki - for two assists Bowen - should have been de Wijs but for that air-kick for their goal.

    Forest (a) MOTM

    Aina - snuffed out any Forest threat on the left. Their 3-5-2 didn't work as a result. Irvine - worked his socks off to stifle Forest's midfield Bowen - just a class above the rest, albeit sporadically. Also the new combination of Wilson and Keane was effective. Very enjoyable performance and...

    For those who remember....

    Great lines. Just the right sentiments, speaking personally. I saw Raich, Ken and Chris but never really thought I would see City at Wembley in a Cup Final. After 62 years of a few ups and many downs the dream comes true. Make us (even more) proud tomorrow, City. UTT

    Allams confirm change to Hull Tigers - via HDM

    The name change is distracting and divisive in a negative way. The quote that "City is a lousy identity" is an insult to me and generations of City supporters. Have our shouts of "Come on City" etc been lousy? A withdrawal or even an apology is appropriate, Mr Allam. The new name/brand is...

    We should have enough to beat Hull - it's by how many that is the question

    Come on City. Its my 60th anniversary to the day of first watching the Tigers. Give me something to celebrate. Let's hope we remember Raich's motto : " Keep playing high-quality football and the results will look after themselves" Simple. UTT

    Diamond Jubilee

    Thanks to "Thatcher's coffin" and Mr and Mrs Bear for the comments. My Dad used to go on and on about Raich. He (that's Raich not my Dad) could pass, score and always led from the front - an inspiration. My earliest memories are of the excitement of Saturdays even though I didn't know why. That...

    Diamond Jubilee

    Tomorrow it will be 60 years to the day since my Dad took me to my first Tigers' game. It was Raich Carter's last, a friendly against Sunderland. I was only 6 so can't claim to remember much, apart from being pushed forward to the railings at the front of the East Stand - and there was some old...

    Supporter on the Board?

    Yes. Also, it was only 2 seasons later that they got out of Div 2. But I was more interested as to whether a "Supporter on the Board" could work for us.

    Supporter on the Board?

    Interesting article about Swansea's Board which includes a supporter elected as a Director. http://www.guardian.co.uk/sport/david-conn-inside-sport-blog/2012/apr/10/swansea-city-supporters-trust Seems a great idea to me. Would it work for City? Would Allam be amenable? PS Didn't...
