Mr Popodopolous Posted October 28, 2017 Report Share Posted October 28, 2017 I think is too early to say for sure whether we are promotion contenders but the way we responded to our loss to Leeds and prior to this, Birmingham was so impressive. Leeds...gonna sound odd after a 0-3 loss but I wasn't too impressed by them and 3-0 flattered them. Yes, we were fairly poor and they were clinical but we had some near misses too... Had we got a goal back at 0-2, whole different ball game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was being sarcastic but never mind,if you honestly think after 14 games City are in a promotion battle then fair play to you,come back to me after 30 games and if we are still top four I will tip my hat to you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their fans might disagree I suspect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny old game! True. Similarly some people would be happier if City had beaten Burton 3-1 and then drawn 0-0 at Sunderland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hence my reference to consistency. Still, Roy Keane did take them from a relegation position to promotion so who knows what might happen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
