I was fortunate to get his autograph in the 60's before I left for Oz & was taken by how friendly he was to everyone. Little did I realise what a City "Legend" he would become. RIP Chris

Agreed & the way our academy is turning out players it could well be on a regular basis

To be honest the names are familiar but it was 60 years ago now (I'm now mid 70's) & details are a bit thin in the brain. Names that do stick with me from my rugby days are Brian & John Gee (twins) & Tony Shardlow (good at most sports), I'm sure other names will come back in flashes but at the moment not many. The joys of getting old eh

That brings back good memories, I had a couple of games at Bristol Rugby in the early to mid 60's alongside John Pullin & David Mann before motor bikes & girls got priority. I often wonder what if..........................................................

I'm 75 & still get told to "Grow Up" by "The War Office"

To be fair, we didn't really want "half decent" defenders but I'm with you on the "crazy money" even if it was the going rate

We had a promising manager that did a Runner also..............................think his name was Steve..................

You too

Spot on mate

The money would be great for BCFC but imo what club Alex wants to join is more important.

Perhaps he was thinking of pushing on somewhere else , a shame imo as he looked the goods earlier, oh well 'Life goes On'

"He Who Dares Rodders"....................................."He Who dares"

G'day Dave, do you know anything about the clubs stance on insurance when it came to Bakers injury. Did the club just do the right thing by him because of the nature of the injury or would they/he have had insurance to cover him seeing out his contract?. Not being argumentative mate, purely interested

My fears have been realised........ .......... We move on

No, some other long legged bird!

All joking aside, we know that Joe can make a very last minute change of clubs so until he actually signs on for us I won't be holding my breath. Really hope he does though ? (That is, signs for us not change his mind.)

I'm all ears mate

It'll be someone else's gain

I think both would amount to the same

For the fear of BR repeating himself I believe he has already done that PP.................................., is BR related to RobboRed ?

I've heard a few local ozzie rules amateur clubs using the chorus from "We Are Australian" and its been very catchy. I could see many not wanting anything from Oz but it could work & just for the record I'm not an Ozzie, born & bred in the UK 77yrs ago & a City fan for 68yrs, much to my dear old dads disgust as he was a gas man. ?We are one, but we are many ?And from all the lands on earth we come ?We share a dream and sing with one voice ?I am, you are, we are The City Fans ?I am, you are, we are The City Fans?

All the best to you too fellow red ?

I like everything about the show, a classic comedy imo
