I am a massive fan of Italian football, and have been since the early 90's when it first came onto Channel 4. Took in 4 matches in a week earlier in the season. Hellas Verona vs Pro Vercelli. Hellas are in Serie B this year but well supported. Their atmosphere is the most 'English' of the...

Fucking hell it was freezing that weekend. Got absolutely mullered on the Friday night, ended up in some crap club, Flares or something. Back into Yates for 11 on the Saturday, great afternoon, then the football started, 10 mins later we were 2 down and ten men. I remember this absolute idiot...

The first person to come into my head was Hadji as well... The second shirts is slightly more difficult... Hartson?

Sorry but this is not a good idea, it's another load of crackpot bollocks... Who is even going to notice (assuming you can get 30-40000 city fans to sing it)... The tv won't pick it up, nobody is going to know, except some self-congratulating city fans. More to the point, what is it going to...

Still remember seeing my first ever game on tv. It was The Match, I think itv on a Sunday afternoon. Elton Wesby was the presenter, and it was Manchester City vs Villa. God knows what year that was, I imagine somewhere around 89-90. I also have very fond memories of Football Italia and have...

Remember this one. It was the first season with the new East Stand, in fact my first game in there, on the front row. This was also back when the JSB section was in the East Stand, firstly over by the Main Stand, then up in the corner by the Sky Blue Stand. Remember Nuddy going through and...

People really need to stop dragging each other down about Sixfields. There were idiots on both sides of the divide (myself included, I was involved in the trouble up on the hill after the Brentford game). But what you can't deny is that a lot of people who went to Sixfields are people who you...

I'm by no means a regular this season, but my thoughts are thus... Spent the first half on the back row almost level with the goal line we were shooting against. It seems the crowd, at least in that half of the tesco stand, couldn't wait to get ripping into someone, be it the ref, the team...

Doesn't Watford itself now have a tube station. Potentially park at Watford junction and get the overground which I'm sure stops near Wembley, or use the tube from Watford (which isn't at Watford Junction, but not too far away)

Whether the protest caused the goal is up for debate... Personally it probably didn't help, but let's face it we'd probably concede at some point. But the main point should be the fact that it's an absolutely piss-poor protest, just makes us look like idiots. I was positive about the protest...

Fucking hell

I would probably be described in here as your typical 'SISU apologist'.... But Nick and a few others need to forget about point scoring.... The fact is, city fans are pissed off, we are going down without a fight, and no doubt it is going to get worse, quite probably with Milwall next week...

He was obviously a complete nut, but I wholeheartedly believe he was a real person, just a very stupid one, rather than a troll account fabricated by someone... I remember he took a load of stick for claiming he was at a Preston away game, but I could verify some of the facts he talked about...

I have a close relative who is a journalist for the telegraph (a specialist reporter if you like), and some of the "facts" spouted on this thread are wildly inaccurate. However despite my family loyalty, I must agree that the coverage of CCFC is dire. It is also incredibly frustrating that...

So you think there's nothing wrong with, for example, the fact we got 28000 against Gillingham (all we want is to see the city at the Ricoh,and we'll get behind the team, remember)... Then got 10000 the week after against I think Yeovil, in arguably a far more important game for our at the...

I actually agree with the guy to an extent. fernandopartridge probably sums it up in a more articulate manner than I can manage. This situation would not have been allowed to happen in Italy. Totally correct that it is not really aimed at posters on here. But CCFC fans as a 'group', will do...

Right today (for a variety of reasons) was my first game of the season... And maybe that gives me a more neutral point of view than some... The players have to take the wrap for that load of shite... The manager obviously set them up to play hoofball from the off, but there was no excuse...

Wanker

I understand the comments the Sheffield United guy was making, and I think of all our problems, getting angry at Sheffield United fans because of a few songs is a bit low on our priorities. Are we all reproaching ourselves for the support we gave Marlon King when he played for us? Or what about...

To be absolutely honest, I had more fun when we were in the 2nd division. Maybe that's because of my age, we were relegated just after my 19th birthday, so spent my early 20's travelling round the championship grounds, but there were some great rivalries... Leicester, Wolves, Leeds, Portsmouth...
