supercidered

Bamford is in control of his instinct which is to try and con the ref i.e. cheat rather than stay on his feet which he could have. If the ball had gone to his right instead of to the covering defender, I bet he would have stayed on his feet because he would have been in on goal. The only question is should it still be a free kick? The answer in my opinion is yes, because the keeper was reckless in that he was never getting the ball and just because there was no contact it doesn't mean no free kick. Keeper should have got a Yellow. However, Bamford should also get a Yellow for trying to con the ref.

It is only 2 defeats on the bounce though and as we have seen that can happen to any team in the Championship. However, I hope the losing streak continues if only to ensure the knock one outathon about Ryan Lowe doesn't start up again on here!

Both players have their studs up. Doesn't have to be contact but Keeper should have got a Yellow and Bamford a Yellow for trying to con the Ref.

I think the Championship is living up to its reputation. This is demonstrated by the concertinaed look of the top half of the table. Much of where we will or could end up will be to a certain extent out of our control. In the main, that will be injuries and how long term those injuries are. All in all we look competitive and a division that apart from Leicester any team are there for the taking on a regular basis.

I can't argue with him. I hope his employers don't sack him though. Bamford is a total penis at the best of times.

Why the long face?

It's going to be a bit chilly up in Yorkshire compared to the balmy temperatures of the West Country. We that in mind I will be bringing a Ferret to put down my trousers to keep me warm rather than expose my whippet ( Oooo Matron ) to the elements.

I know I may get pelters on here for posting this but, I'm not massively bothered about getting to the Premier League. I doubt whether I will see it my life time (in my 50's) in any case and I'm pretty comfortable with that. If we ever did get there, I don't want to see us get walloped week in week out. I don't want to have celebrations and or matches with VAR spoiling my day out. God I hope that VAR doesn't get filtered down in to the Championship. I also don't want glory hunting fans emerging from the wood work if we were to get there. It just feels that there are more negatives than positives by getting to the so called 'promised land'. So many clubs go up and then come down and the cycle starts again. For every Fulham there is a Norwich, Derby, WBA, Reading etc, etc. Time will tell but I think sometimes we as loyal City fans need to be careful what we wish for. I'll get my tin hat on!!

I can understand £100 a ticket for a big game but it is versus Manchester United !!

Thanks for the idea. After careful consideration, I've decided to go to the pub instead.

Matey shouldn't have been allowed in to the ground in the first place with that ridiculous ponytail !!

This Post smacks of, I'm a bit bored and could do with some notifications and a reaction. Congratulations. It worked!

Never gets tiresome watching that. Even if Mansfield were wearing their own kit, it would be hilarious. However, getting relegated with Mansfield wearing a G@a kit was and is priceless!!

Good work RR.

Give me your address. I'll send you some straws to clutch at.

It's fun. It's Friday. We are laughing at him and making him look stupid. However, that isn't taking too much effort to be honest.

Also right behind your sister at the same time. Multi tasking. Fair play.

So the first 8 words of your post is a lie. To be honest 99% of the posts you have made are at best pathetic. However, to use Steve Evans to back up your belief that you lot create an atmosphere is truly astounding. Then you bring up Trumpton. It wasn't even your ground and it wasn't intimidating, it was just shite and not unlike the Mem. At least Trumpton had 4 sides to I suppose.

Oh you are touched alright. No doubt about it.

Whey faced !! ? ?

Yay! Joey is back!

I agree they 'look stronger' when you look at the names. However, it's a bloody long season mostly 2 games a week and sometimes more. The older legs are unlikely to sustain playing that amount of games and older players pick up knocks and take so much longer to recover (speaking from experience). If you scratch under the surface of their best 14 players it isn't good at all. Let's be honest even the top 14 aren't that great. I'm looking forward to it all falling apart yet again and laughing along with all like minded City fans on here.

I'm bored. Where is Hot Air / Joey Barton?

Does anyone remember the 'Up the arse' section in Viz ?

Jack Hunt has been released more time than the hounds on the Simpsons !!
