Shtanley Posted December 30, 2020 Report Share Posted December 30, 2020 Dave and Josh join me to see out 2020 in reasonable style. We naturally chat about the defeat to Luton. Why did Bakinson play so poorly? How much are injuries affecting us? What were our highpoint and low point of 2020? How do we wrap up warm in cold conditions?

Sitrom Posted December 30, 2020 Report Share Posted December 30, 2020 Yaaaaaaaay. Happy New Year Osibers! High point was proving, after years of arguing, that as a company, remote working was possible. Low point being forced to work remotely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One Team Posted December 30, 2020 Report Share Posted December 30, 2020 High point was QPR away, low point was Holden being appointed after six weeks of fiddling whilst Rome burned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonBristolian Posted December 30, 2020 Report Share Posted December 30, 2020 Highlight for me was QPR away back in February. That and Barnsley at home were the only wins I saw in a stadium in 2020. In terms of low points, we did our best to find one just after the resart but nothing tops new year's day at home to Brentford. In hindsight, no club did a better job of setting up the mood of an entire year on its very first day... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CotswoldRed Posted December 30, 2020 Report Share Posted December 30, 2020 High point - using the pandemic to sort the wheat from the chaff when it comes to friends and family (nuff said). Low point.

oldstandrobin Posted December 31, 2020 Report Share Posted December 31, 2020 High Point - week is Spain in Feb and passing La Roselada where I used to have a ST to watch Malaga Low Point - Appointment of DH and realising we are fed bulls**t by the owner who seems keener on the real estate called AG than getting us to the Prem.

Numero Uno Posted December 31, 2020 Report Share Posted December 31, 2020 Low point - another whole year of painfully boring football on Steve’s watch. High point - young players getting a shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedZepperin Posted December 31, 2020 Report Share Posted December 31, 2020 High point: Reading the headline on the official site that we had won 1-2 away to Luton. Low point: Discovering it was a mistake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
And Its Smith Posted December 31, 2020 Report Share Posted December 31, 2020 Low point - LJ being sacked. It was time to be fair but sad to see High point - watching Semenyo improve and listening to OSIB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazred Posted December 31, 2020 Report Share Posted December 31, 2020 Low: Football having it's soul ripped out with no fans at games. It's just not the same. High: Football returning after months without. Ok we were crap but that's the longest I've gone without it and it really demonstrated how integral it is in my life.

GrahamC Posted December 31, 2020 Report Share Posted December 31, 2020 High point was probably the last game that fans could attend, so Fulham at home, a good game & we played well against a very decent side. Low point (pandemic aside of course) was the managerial appointment, nothing personal against Holden, but it simply confirmed a lot of things that are badly wrong at the club.

BS15_RED Posted December 31, 2020 Report Share Posted December 31, 2020 High point, shithousing three points at Cardiff in November, low point selling Josh Brownhill, yes it was a good move for him and we couldn’t stand in his way, but we’ve been absolute pony since he left.

Dr Balls Posted December 31, 2020 Report Share Posted December 31, 2020 Keeping this City related. Low point: Losing to Shrewsbury in the FA Cup 3rd round and missing out on a home 4th round televised tie against Liverpool. High point: Sacking LJ. Sorry but he had to go. 2nd lowest point: Realising that despite all the talk of experienced managers, big names etc, DH bring appointed Head Coach after a ridiculously drawn out process. Initially looked like he might prove my fears groundless, but we have quickly returned to boring and unsuccessful “LJ-ball”. Confused point: Realising that despite missing the pub for a post-match drink and chat, my mood was generally so much better on a Saturday evening during lockdown, while the football was suspended...

Olé Posted December 31, 2020 Report Share Posted December 31, 2020 Like a few others have said, the high point of a lean year has to be QPR away last season, the atmosphere and belief at the end in that upper tier, especially having won nearby at Reading just days earlier, is the reason you follow City. Real feeling of being on the march, and pride and passion bursting from everyone. There are too many lows to mention, aside from lockdown the most obvious being that deeply patronising managerial hiring process (whatever you think about the outcome). But as a distinct moment in time I'd go with the departure of Korey Smith which not only ended an era but was so classless and ham-fisted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Skin Posted January 2, 2021 Report Share Posted January 2, 2021 High point: Watching good performances from Bakinson and Semenyo. Low point:. Seeing the stats post game from the Man Utd v Leeds game and realising I'd have to watch a whole season of city games to see as many attempts on goal.

Swede Posted January 2, 2021 Report Share Posted January 2, 2021 High point: the loan signing of Benik Afobe. A top class forward and, with Palmer & Nagy a real statement that the club means business. I was looking forward to an exciting team with real attacking intent. Low point: the underwhelming appointment of Dean "we go again" Holden. With very little lower league managerial experience and absolutely none at this level. He is pitting his wits and tactical genius against experienced managers and coaches in an extremely competitive league who have played and managed at the highest level. It doesn't bode well.

MrBibs Posted January 3, 2021 Report Share Posted January 3, 2021 High point for me was in February. Was lucky to go with some Argyle fans to Salford on a freezing Tuesday night. Argyle won 3-2 with a last minute winner. Absolute bedlam in the away end. They took 1,000 plus on a Tuesday night. Nearly half the crowd. Amazing. They had a lad on loan from City playing, Bakinson. Wonder what became of him? The next night saw City beat Derby 3-2. City winning 3-2 at home? Did that really happen in 2020? Low point for me was the Holden appointment, particularly Ashton’s interview referring to the ‘process’. Realising my season ticket doesn’t even cover a thousandth of his salary was another low point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garland-sweden Posted January 3, 2021 Report Share Posted January 3, 2021 High point: QPR away. Low point: Neither LJ or DH had no belief in Niclas Eliasson, he went to France, not good enough for us, he he. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
