City 13/10 on bet 365 looks pretty generous on current form.

Yes it was a dump,but I have mainly good memories of it compared to the crap that was going to Bath to watch the derby games ,when Nigel Martin usually ensured we had nothing to celebrate. At Eastville I can so easily remember that 1-4 victory ,the infamous 1-0 down 2-1 up cup game(possibly my favourite ever),and the many and varied shenanigans associated with derby day and the precarious walk back to near Stapleton road station where my dad usually parked the car. I liked going to Eastville and although we haven’t played them much since they left ,the mem i associate with watching Bristol(rugby),is nowhere near the same. Glad I saw those times ,happy days.

Very reminiscent of the S’OD,days ,for those of a certain age Joe Burnell would look like an outrageous maverick in this side.

Your memory is poor ,as he didn’t attempt to trip him ,he did actually trip him ! Paul Hartley wasn’t very impressed as I remember.

Great night ,good performance,to be fair that West Ham team tonight wouldn’t survive in the prem,but you can only beat what they send. Looking forward to Forest in the next round .

Saw wales v west Germany in Cardiff in 1976,the kaiser scored in a 2-0 victory. Just looked at the team sheet on internet,a good few of that great west German side we’re playing that night,surprised they didn’t win by more.

Fresh legs needed ,they’re building momentum.

Well that was disappointing,out a 50p bet on bet 365 for draw…..can see the match on their app .

Nothing beats the old mem derby days.

Err Mcindoe was teatotal when he was with us.

If we had an astute attacking England manager what could we achieve??

Did the double over Arsenal that year. Also vital wins home to Leeds and Liverpool in the last 5 or so games set up that classic at Coventry.So lucky to have been around to see those few seasons in the promised land.Disappointing to think so many on here have not had the opportunity.

Xmas day games finished in England in 1965 and in Scotland in 1971 My dad tells me he always went and they were very popular. Different times I guess.

I reckon I saw all all of the home goals and about a third of the away. So many on here don’t think a bit of height up front is useful……I think it’s essential. Gives the defence one more thing to think about and cover ,as long as the team doesn’t resort to lazy long ball lumping. Loved the Cheese ,what a gun forward he was.

I hope we did,no actual confirmation of the exact fee.
