Interesting that Pressley's odds have come in again. Somebody's backing him, and he popped up as the favourite initially. I wonder why.

It is really nothing to do with the current state of things. This season has died because of the first eight games.

Astonishingly good. You'd be hard-pressed to think of many players who rank as highly on the unfulfilled potential chart as he does.

Harsh. Surely exceptional footballing fitness is a talent. He was also good at putting in the set pieces, and was a pretty good ball-winner when he played in centre-midfield. But ultimately, I'd say his biggest contributions aren't really quantifiable. I mean, I wonder how many goals he...

Some interesting bits and pieces from an interview with Telfer. 'AS HE lined up in the tunnel before Celtic faced Manchester United in the Champions League the other week, Paul Telfer could not resist reflecting on the scene with Gordon Strachan. "I said to him it was just like when we were...

http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p014ck9z 47.00 - 47.30. You're welcome.

I remember some pundits remarking on how John Gregory had helped take Dublin to the next level, or somethin', not long after his move to Villa. It was just a prime example of how some players, especially the likes of Dublin, had been long overlooked by the mainstream media. Dublin refined his...

West Terracer for life.

Nigel's brilliant crescendo.

Thommo. Dynamo on the wing or through central midfield. Proper top-tier talent. A shame that injuries knackered his career.

While we're reminiscing about the 90s, I'll put on my helmet and say that Telfer was the most unfairly maligned player in City's history. The defence: 1. over 200 appearances 2. utter commitment and effort every game 3. legendary fitness - he never faded 4. played wherever he was...

Dublin. Leadership, effort, scored with head and feet, agitated the opposition at set pieces, could play a very respectable central defence when needed. One of the most underrated English players in the 1990s.

Comparing apples and oranges there - two very different types of player. It is also tough to fairly evaluate Chippo, because he made an excellent start to his City career, but then mysteriously lost all form.

Babb edged Atherton, but unfairly overshadowed him. The loss of Atherton to Wednesday was massive - and for far less than he was worth.

Easy call - Breen was far superior to Konjic. The memory is getting a bit patchy now, but Breen may have been played out of position on many occasions, as well as being frozen out by Strachan for a period; but when he played at centre-half (perhaps on one particular side) he was as good as they...

Wonder how long it would take before he is slated for a 'bad attitude'.

Best be careful what's said about Joy, for Nick's sake ...

Legend. Gotta get Nick to upload it to the media gallery.

It was on Saturday's Sky Blue Interactive, from 47.00 - 47.30. Christ, just listened to it again, just chuckled again. Gold.

Somebody really needs to save that for posterity before it disappears from iPlayer forever.
