    Like them or loath them reporters are part of the football environment and it is their job to report on what is going on in the game, either through fact or opinion.

    Terry Philips is hanging up his pen and keyboard having reported on City for over 20 years.

    Most journos are Marmite to fans, some you like some you don't. I'm pretty neutral on Terry. In my view he is usually on the right side, when compared to his colleague Tucker, the ugly......... , who sole purpose seems to provoke both inside and outside the club.

    This link is worth a read: -

    An interesting view on some of the players who have graced our club - or otherwise over the years.

    I think most of us would have guessed his favourites but some interesting ones in the Nightmare team, particularly on the bench - Cala, Eikrem and Berget for example. Their inclusion might well explain the need to offload them pretty quickly. If their relationship with reporters was the same as within the club then every picture tells a story.

    The biggest surprise is Chops on the bench for the Nightmare team. We all know his personal issues would have had an effect on his overall life but I wonder what he did to get on Phillips' wrong side? I would like to hear more about that.

    He was no great shakes. Hope they get someone decent in like Chris Wathan or even on a good day Steve Tucker.

    You are taking the urine Nin?

    Wathan's a Swansea fan and Tucker is the Adrian Durham of Walesonline - he's just a sh!t stirrer.
