  1. I think that horse might of already bolted! Ah, but you can do amazing things with video editing, CGI and a load of other things I have no idea about! COYR
  2. To be fair, a lot of the managers seem to be expressing their views on it. Even our very own Big Nige has made comments on the vaccines etc, I believe at one point he insinuated that other clubs could do more in getting their players jabbed, which would then result in less late cancellations. Maybe LJ could of chosen his words better, but he did confirm what it was more likely to be later. & that’s before we look at how the report tries to sensationalise the article. COYR
  3. The answer most should be putting is, I don’t know. Because I can’t imagine many on here have seen him play, heck, I don’t think he has played recently has he? That’s not to say he won’t be a good short term signing though, just being realistic. COYR
  4. I’m more amazed that anyone listens to a word from Peter Schmeichel to be honest. COYR
  5. I remember it as Mciness & Millen. But unfortunately mainly Mciness! COYR
  6. Although I agree with your sentiment, it is great to see so many in the squad. Timing is everything, in any walk of life. Before this current group, who would of been ready for a first team place? Morrell possibly? After that, I’d struggle to name any in the last 5 years that didn’t have a chance & were worthy. I think this current crop have been talked about for 2 or 3 years, so great that it’s coming to fruition now. As you said, patience will be needed at times, but it really feels like we are on an upward trajectory at last! COYR
  7. Remember that fondly, one of a very few things I remember about that group fondly! Always played with a smile on his face. Congratulations Albert, great achievement. COYR
  8. Think I said 10th - 12th would be par for City this season & I see no reason why that still shouldn’t be the aim/possible. Especially when you take into account other teams having points deducted. COYR
  9. I seem to remember that he tripled his wages & that at that stage of his career, it was too big a move to turn down? That’s before you add on signing on fees. It was good money for City & a good move ( money wise ) for Pack. COYR
  10. Liam Rosenior is one, ex City. Quite highly thought of in the game & has always come across well on tv when doing punditry. COYR
  11. Was definitely a strange set up with COD marking him, possibly doubled up with Scott (only saw a quick glimpse on the highlights). Also was worth taking note how Mitrovic just gives a little nudge while the ball is in flight, clever from him & we need to be stronger. COYR
  12. Really can’t get my head around people saying that the questions should be more open, better worded etc etc. One of the worst of the lot, is the official City guy ‘ Dave ‘. Yet he gets a pass does he? Just say it as it is, Nige can be a bit of d**k when it comes to the press. It’s the same questions for all managers up & down the country, yet they seem to manage it. Good news is that we are hopefully starting to see some progress on the pitch, keep up the good work Nige & be polite! COYR
  13. Although I agree in a way with your general tone, in other words, play smart, a few things. When are the conditions bad nowadays on a Championship pitch? They are like bowling greens. The weather, always best to keep it on the deck when it’s windy & then it’s zippy (is that a word?) in the rain. Also, does that mean we play without one of the latest buzz words, ‘ identity ‘? Really, we just need to be really good at what we do! COYR
  14. I’d hate to watch that, I’d also hate to play in a team like that. Worth a thought when trying to sign players I would imagine. Playing with intelligence is the key. COYR
  15. Glad I’m not the only one, sent shivers down my spine! A reminder that things can always get worse! COYR
  16. Well, it goes like this...... We are Bristol City = Barnsley. COYR
  17. Hope he never leaves then! Job for life. COYR
  18. Thanks. From that angle, just confirms what I originally thought, reacting instead of acting. Two players I presume stood by the corner & we are slow to react to it. Then there are two Fulham players ( can’t see who loses their player from either camera angle) who could of scored on the end of the cross, marked by one City player, compounding the first mistake. Sounds like a good performance overall, but games are won or lost over small margins. Promising though at least. COYR
  19. Really, thought it was that Scott ( I think? ) was too slow to move out. Only seen it on the stream replay, so not the best of views. But a schoolboy moment of switching of possibly? COYR
  20. I thought Millen was in charge when Maynard left? Or is my mind playing tricks? Plus I thought it was Maynard that said no to them? It’s all a blur, probably best though! COYR
  21. I find that incredible. The goalkeeper is 10 yards off his line & Weimann is 25ish yards out, with the ball bouncing up reasonably favourably. Are all those factors in that percentage? That’s a genuine question? COYR
  22. Is that right? Bloody hell, I should think someone’s calculator is broken! Reminds me of why I’m not so taken on all these stat calculations. COYR
  23. Believe it was Palmer warming up. Believe someone mentioned it on the match thread. COYR
  24. Maybe I’m being harsh, but I’ve seen comments on here about a good first touch? So a right footed player has a touch with his stronger foot, which he then has to have a touch with his thigh, to then have to volley it in with his weeker foot? Good finish, yes, good first touch? Really? COYR
