Can only repeat earlier comments - it's fantastic writing. And very much enjoyed by a couple of mates who aren't even City fans.

Looking at the sides around us - Peterborough, Ipswich, Wycombe, Fleetwood, Oxford, Doncaster, Sunderland, Rotherham, Blackpool and Bristol Rovers, there's no stand-out side. Ipswich looked to be such a side but their two recent defeats have set them back. If we can keep a decent run of form...

Footcharts - Shots on Target suggests that it's not our 'Shots on target' that's the problem.

It's 1961 and we've just lost 2-1 at home to King's Lynn. If someone came up to you and forecast the future of the club, what would your reaction be? Let's just sum it up in a few words Jimmy Hill Division 3 champions George Hudson Sky Blue revolution Ronnie Rees Division 2 champions George...

14 posts so far and only one serious attempt to rate the players. Everyone is only too keen to rate them when we win. I couldn't get there today and a setback of this nature cries out for a constructive critique. Anyone?

Robins main task is to get us into the Championship and, I hope, he's assembled a squad that gives us a reasonable chance of doing just that. He will then have to build a squad that will prosper in the Championship and, judging on past experiences, will not shy off making the necessary...

OC enough - klose this thread.

I'm a great fan of Mark Robins, but Jimmy Hill not only got us promoted twice into the then Division One but lead the Sky Blue revolution with new colours, the Sky Blue song, the Sky Blue radio, the Sky Blue express and significant improvements to Highfield Road. He later returned to the club to...

Don't feel too bad about it. 'Themself' was all there was until 1466 when 'themselves' crept into the language. So 553 years ago you'd have been spot on. I think we were in the Third Division North then.

That midfield trio is AOK with me.

Those idiots get on his (and everyone else's) back the minute we go a goal down. Take a look at today's match thread.

30th August 1995 Chelsea 2 Coventry 2 Isaias, Ndlovu

When they analyse the demise of the beautiful game, they will trace it back to the introduction of VAR. Take away that ecstatic moment when your team score and you take away what is so special about football. Who cares whether every decision is correct? Arguing about it afterwards is also part...

And then won just one of our next nine games. Same old City.

And he was our top scorer last season. Far too often teams leave their leading goal scorer on the bench because he doesn't track back or goes missing or whatever. We shouldn't make that mistake. The object of the game is to score goals so, for the moment, he has to start.

Just skimmed through the Portsmouth Match thread. If only some of our fans could show the same 'never say die' spirit as the players. You know who you are.

Good guess
