    Need to be careful with that scenario.When the ****ing Martians come down tonight and wipe us all out because we're self destructive,ignorant earthlings.There might not be a need for Football,well at least not League 1,therefore any points yielded or yet to be accrued will be irrelevant?? What a waste of time it was sending the Doc down to help you out:emoticon-0102-bigsm

    That was the biggest achievement in the Clubs history and something that most of us never saw possible in our lifetimes....Keep the titles,that was it for me and can't be topped.

    Don't know if you watch Frasier, but some of these remarks remind me of an exchange in that-

    Frasier " That was a wonderful evening. What could be better than a perfect meal?"

    Niles, his brother " A perfect meal with one tiny flaw you can pick at all night?"

    Ignoring the point again.

    Both those stats should be in an immensely better position.

    Often record the repeats. Still funny after many repeats, you pick up on things different characters say you might have missed first time. Frasier's dad has some brilliant putdowns. Funny to think that when they cast Cheers that the the bloke who plays Cliff was the choice for Frasier until Kelsey Grammar auditioned for a different part.

    We did indeed. I've said this before on here but with no reply from anyone.

    No silverware, but we don't care...

    That was silverware and at the time, the biggest prize in World football. It probably still is.

    You get a better trophy for going up via the playoffs than doing it automatically as runners up.
    Though I would say the World Cup is the biggest prize in World Football.

    Going to Wembley in 2008, something I thought I would never do with City made it better than going up automatically. When we got there I think we were one of only 9 out of the 92 league clubs who hadn't been to Wembley in some competition or other.

    The point is they could have been better, and they could have been worse, I wouldn't swap ours for ANY others.

    I think the fact that Swindon changed their tactics after half an hour did for us .. they simply put 5 across the middle .. that stopped our fluidity.. our mastermind manager as we all know doesn't know how to change formations so the space was shut down that Honeyman and Crowley were exploiting for the first half hour. That said we still created enough to win comfortably. Wilks needs coaching .. he is raw and just doesn't whether to stick or twist at the minute.

    I know, But you said World Football, not club football, and didn't mention financially and I was just being pedantic. Or accurate.<laugh>

    Whenever I watch such programmes I wonder how many dogs they used to play the on-screen dog. There were four Lassies, for example.
