What have we got to look forward to next season? (1 Viewer)

[edgy]

I cannot think of anything. Why would anyone want a season ticket?


:blue:

[Nick]

We don't really have much.

All of our good players leaving and it has been made clear they won't be replaced properly.

You would think they would be doing everything they can to make us want to buy a season ticket...

 

[Sky_Blue_Daz]

The new kit, Joe Elliott says its best one he's seen in over 50 years of supporting the club. I cant wait to see it

 

[CovLis86]

Well i will get to watch us just 15mins walk when we play away to Exeter....

 

[rob9872]

We can look forward to a bright and prosperous new future under our owners who are committed to the club since saving us from administration on more than one occasion. Jeez you lot are an ungrateful bunch

come on...

in the summer we will lose..

King, Westwood, Gunnar, Carsley - Out Of Contract

Craine - SOLD


So, the 1st 11 will look like this (if we dont buy anyone)....


-----------------------------Ireland-----------------------

Keogh------------Wood------------Turner----------Hussey

-----------Baker------------Deegan---------Bell------------

Eastwood----------------Juke-------------------McSheff


Subs : Quirke, McPake, Clarke, O'Hallorhan, Osbourne, O'Donovan, Cameron


it aint too bad...

is it

 

[ccfcway]

I must add, when i did this, i presumed we would be in League One.

As a championship team, this would be a gonner !

 

[Nonleagueherewecome]

No, I reckon we'd have an outside of reaching the play-offs with that team. Not quite good enough to do the double with the Johnstones Paint Trophy, though.

Of course new players would come in... Where's Clingan?

or Platt?

Osbourne out of contract too and wont have change to earn a new contract IMO. Especially with no permanent manager in place!!

I was going to say we have got the Johnsons paint trophy to look forward to, but Nonleagueherewecome seems to differ, and hes dented my confidence in us now. who'd have thought it, a City fan with no confidence in the team / club

 

[Pigeon]

Maybe they'll be a new flavored pie to choose from.:thinking about:

 

[bamalamafizzfazz]

Dont forget the olympics

 

[Disorganised1]

Isn't Freddie's contract up this season as well., and McSheffrey's

 

[ccfcway]

Clingan i forgot about and Platt was only a 1 year deal

freddie has another year and mcsheff has another year as well due to contract clause

 

[Nonleagueherewecome]

i just think with our depth we'd struggle to get anywhere in the JPT, we'd just pick the kids. Don't we start earlier in the other cups too? Christ, we'll be in the F.A. Cup Preliminary Round soon at this rate. Maybe we should concentrate on the Birmingham Senior Cup as our best hope of silverware? Although winning even that requires a certain level of character and appetite

 

[Nick]

No, Freddies is next year.

McSheffreys was auto renewed because he played so many games...whoever agreed to that was stupid!

 

[CovLis86]

Yeah having had a think, Disorganised1 is right i think, there are a lot more players up at the end of the season arent there? With what would remain, i think we would even struggle in league 1, which is looking a more and more likely prospect.

 

[sw88]

Do not fear, we still have Roy O'Donavon!! He signed a 3 year, yes a THREE YEAR, contract remember, and he was picked up following his performances in League 1 so we already have our saviour!!

 

[CovLis86]

I actually really want to just fall asleep until the end of the season and see whats happened. I cant take all the stress of it at the moment, whther we will stay up or not is going to be massive in what happens to the future of this club.

 

[sky_blue_up_north]

I got mine, and the grand kids, would not surprise me if I don't get done for child abuse

 

[The CableGuy]

C'mon guys! We'll have potentially THREE EPIC DERBY GAMES to sustain us:

City vs Walsall (if they don't get relegated!)
City vs Notts County (if they don't get relegated!)
City vs MK Dons (if they don't screw up their play-off challenge!)

What more could you possibly ask for? :thinking about:

And you could potentially add Shrewsbury & Port Vale to that epic list of excitement if those clubs get promoted from League 2.

Sound like quality away games

 

[The CableGuy]

City vs MK Dons: Both sets of fans would be singing "Your ground's too big for you!"

 

[Great_Expectations]

Looking forward is the wrong word but I am interested to see the new kit at least....

As things stand we do not have much to look forward to, I reckon we will survive this year and with the team posted earlier, we can look forward to a relegation fight next season.

However lets be hopeful; by next season we will have new investors, money for transfers, a young talented manager AND a good squad of players (i.e. not premiership players on their way to retirement/second rate League One players)

 

[Sir Digby Chicken Caesar]

We have the fact that we aren't Villa fans

 

[IrishSkyBlue]

a new kit be intresting, one kit i like is scunthorpes away kit the illuminous yellow always looks class.:thinking about:

 

[coundonskyblue]

Are the MK Dons close enough to class them as a derby game?

 

[The CableGuy]

Are the MK Dons close enough to class them as a derby game?

47.9 miles away and 1 hour down the M1 according to Mr. Google.

And if we, Walsall, Notts County, Port Vale & Shrews screw up, then yeah cos MK Dons would be the closest team.

 

[coundonskyblue]

How are Northampton doing? That could be a good derby game.

 

[sw88]

I dunno! Gary Johnson is in charge of them and his teams usually p*** all over us!

Northampton are in a League 2 relegation battle.

I do beleive we last won some silverware at their ground......good times. :claping hands:

 

[Nonleagueherewecome]

Yeah if Northampton beat us, we should worry. They have Mracus Hall, Kevin Thornton, Leon McKenzie and Kevin Thornton in their side!

 

[Roger H]

How far away are we from setting up AFC Coventry ?

 

[Great_Expectations]

Yeah if Northampton beat us, we should worry. They have Mracus Hall, Kevin Thornton, Leon McKenzie and Kevin Thornton in their side!

Two Kevin Thorntons? God I bet the alcohol consumption in Northampton has increased dramatically.

 

[Pigeon]

We'll only think there's two Kevin Thortons because he's going to run rings around us
