Some people (by that I mean like 2) have got upset on behalf of a group of rugby players (who don’t care and probably aren’t aware why this is even a issue, just like everybody else!)

Given your user name, one might have thought that you would have a more nuanced contribution to this thread

A deserved 3 points for City who displayed great team spirit to leave them in 9th with a 1/4 of the season gone going into the next international break.

Despite two clever goals Sammy Szmodics was denied the chance to put one over on City.

Tanner played well enough scoring his first goal for the club but for me the star was Joe Williams with a battling display when he rode three tackles before setting up the chance for Martin to score the decisive goal.

I'm not a fan of O'Dowda but he did OK until going off with injury but Scott did well as a sub and his saving tackle on Kanu as the home side went looking for an equaliser in the closing stages showed a new side to his game.

We'd take 9th in May after the trials of last season but can we do better than that???

I suspect that if the song was only allowed to be sung by those whose wives he might actually like to shag, it would be a somewhat quieter rendition

So today there is King vs Earl.

Surely King is the only winner there, clear superior in title.

It did take 9 years as a midfield player that saw him do very little before LJ decided to stick him up top however.

Wasn't Moore originally a midfielder?

I hereby formally propose that this statistically anomalistic argument regarding perennially underperforming "young"/academy players be henceforth termed "The Reid Defence", and laughed out of court whenever attempted.

they probably were rivals with Villa for a brief period....Villa climbed out of Division 3 in the 70's on their way to a European Cup win in the early 80's

So basically, the full and entire extent of their ambition is to play in the third division? Jesus wept.

I don't know if the opening poster is on the wind up or not...But with respect if you look at clubs like Wigan and Hull that are now back in our league.

Or at clubs like Swansea,Cardiff, Reading, Rotherham,Bournemouth, Huddersfield,Stoke and others.All have been mostly played in the bottom two levels and never filling there old grounds 10/15 years ago and before spending time in the top flight ( apart from Rotherham that is) all were on the same level crowd wise as us and smaller clubs.

At the moment (pre C19) at the Mem- we would average anywhere between 8k- 9k during a standard mid table season, and 10k plus during a decent season.People forget how awlful the MEM is for any fan of football unless you are in an expensive
Box in the west stand. 
 

I don't think they do...

Spot on. The 15ers are insane to still be harping on about our play off final. We were 90 minutes away from the top division, they will never get anywhere near a game like that.

There's no real reason for Hull to dislike us, although the odd fan probably does.

 

They're all odd fans, as anyone who was on a train out of Wembley with them will know. Subdued and morose as though they'd lost. It's been widely commented on on here too.
