was that taken from block 32?? near to where I used to sit
About as many in the ground as we get now by the looks of it.Pitch looks nice.
And i hope this continues at least for another weekwas a good player..but always seemed to hit the crossbar rather than score
Villa are favourites - blues fans have been raving about himWhich Prem teams want him?

I miss the Ricoh watching this.
Ha - I was going to post this too. I thought he was decent and very unlucky. Always remember when we signed him seeing the worldie he'd hit in Scotland (I think for Motherwell in a high scoring game). Wonder if he'll celebrate if he scores against us? Guess it depends what kind of reaction he gets when the teams are read out.
Iconic commentary
IT's THE COMEBACK, OF COMEBACKS
Liked Juke, good hold up/link up play and always chased a 'lost cause' down, will be a real handful Saturday, especially in the air.
Didn't we go down that season we sold him?
Deliberately to make sure we went down.We went down that season because we sold him
Pretty much, selling Juke, our top asset and goalscorer at the time, felt pretty depressing for me.We went down that season because we sold him
Hate using this but, ROFL!Deliberately to make sure we went down.

He had a great ability to hit the post or bar more than any other player that i remember.

SISU, I believe have learnt lessons from that era, allowing football people decide footballing decisions in the last 3 years.
Reckon it's the main reason Robins came back, having control of the footballing side too! *
*Everything bar stadium issues.
Make it an acca with Juke to miss itJuke v McFadzean will be interesting. Might have a fiver on City conceding a penalty.
What drivelDeliberately to make sure we went down.
Hope he’s restedWhen I look at the results on a Saturday, after Coventry, I usually look at Birmingham, and more often that not Jutkiewicz has scored for them.
No that was due to a majority of fans demanding Thorn got the job. If we’d have got a proper manager like Robins, whose named was mentioned at the time, I doubt we’d have gone down.Deliberately to make sure we went down.

Clinghan was hardly drivel at that time and he wasted money on McDondald. If we had actually gone for someone like Robins, we would likely have stayed up and he would have attracted and brought in superior players.Yes we would have. The team was utter drivel. We had 3 decent players that season- Craine, Keogh and juke.
Norwood was then a decent loan but the rest of the team was utter shit.
Another player to maybe mention is Coventry lad and fan Daniel Crowley - He will most likely be playing in midfield and is catching the eye of premiership teams -Once touted as the wonder kid at arsenal under Arsene Wenger he lost his way and eventually went to play in holland until birmingham signed him in the summer -

I disagree entirely. Bar those three you mentioned the squad was awful and once Juke was sold and replaced with Alex Nimley the writing was on the wall.
Baring in mind in that side we also had Conor Thomas, a fading Gary McSheffrey, Chris Hussey, Gary Deegan, David Bell and Clive Platt. Following the sale of Juke it was up there with one of the worst sides we've ever fielded.
