Scunny were well crap even before they put 7 teenagers in the team today.

Little wonder how the Sags got a cricket score.

They won the toss, I think.

All these Happy Clappers saying “Well done” aren’t true City. **** um.

If you weren't at Newport '82, or indeed Halifax away midweek the following season, you ain't true City. And don't start with the: "I was 2 then/not even born," not listening ....

It's interesting to reflect on when that fellow feeling ended. I'm in my 7th decade (just!) and I can't ever remember a time when folk supported both clubs. Personally I've always hated Rovers, despite having met lots of perfectly nice Rovers fans down the years.

Late 60s, at a guess, with the "taking of ends," and scrapping and kicking **** out of scrafers andso on, and in Bristol, with the attempts to take not just "ends," but entire grounds, when the opportunity presents itself.

I look to a time, or rather dream of a time, when Bristol provide both city clubs in a European Final

This comes to pass, when a child is born.

Ivor hums: "Aha aha, ha ha haha. Hmm, hmm hmmm hmm, hmmm, hmm hmm"

And all of this happens because the world is waiting,

Waiting for one city,

Red, blue, red white and blue, **** who knows

But a city that will grow up and turn tears into laughter

Hate to love, war to peace, and L2 promotions into European finals

And misery and suffering - and finishing below Luton and Preston - will be forgotten forever (more hummimg)

......

It's all a dream, an illusion now

It must come true, sometime soon somehow (better recruitment, for starters)

He’ll lead the lemmings in a “city we’re coming for you”, cry, I expect some “sleeping giants” talk and they’ll be even bigger insufferable pricks than they normally are.

You pay him to much attention - trust me.

the excitement of their season compared to ours is actually planets apart. 

Indeed. Same for the level of competition, and so achievement.

Fair play to them. The thing that will grate me is Barton won’t be humble about Coming third in league two.  He’s gonna be an ass about it. And we will get mentioned - trust me. 

I trust you. What happens now?

This is the sort of excitement we could be experiencing, if only Nige would take us down and quit fighting off relegation every year.

Let's go home, let's go back to the lower divisions!

I know that’s a majority view on here. But I don’t think our team is half bad 

You don't think our defence is bad?

Good point, it’s not impossible just very unlikely. 

Barnsley last season, Luton this. Even Huddersfield in 2017 as well as this season. It's amazing what can be achieved despite everything.

Funny how a lot of the analysis today has been about how Man City should have been a bit more ‘clever’ in the closing minutes of normal time. Be more ‘professional’. Ie, waste time, roll about, draw free kicks etc. 

The pundits today are saying how “they” are experts at it.  “They” being Madrid and their players. And that the English teams just don’t do this side of the game well. That they should have closed it out, just like Madrid did. 
 

All these pundits seem to blatantly ignore the fact that Man City are managed by a Spaniard and had 3 Brazilians, 3 Portuguese and 2 Spaniards on the pitch.

Cheating and gamesmanship and diving and all that continental carry on and what-have-you only entered the honest English game of Association football upon the arrival of the two Argy-bargies at Tottenham Hotspurs in 1978, Ossie Ardiles and the other one, and they then spread this foreign import around our honourable game like Dutch elm disease and Ash dieback.   

Never 'appened before these Johnny Foreigners turnt up ....

There must be still a few milk floats around that could be used. 

Geoff Dunford, his milk floats used to bring all theFew boys to the Mem, and they were like: "this is better than the Shit" (you might not "get" this song ref, pong, but don't worry) ...

Did we ruin Chester's lap of honour that day?

No, but we trashed their chicken-wire fence. Must've cost them about £200

You can create a fantastic atmosphere in support of your team without acting like selfish d1kheads.

I don't think you've entered the field of play - with the exception of Lords, Somerset v Glos 1999 - with gay abandon since Chester 1984. That's far too long. Let's see you scaling the perimeter boundary, dodging the "stews" and steaming across AG to mob Antoine Semenyo in May 2023 as he scores the goal that secures our play-off place  (before we inevitably come up short in the do-or-die stuff)

Saw these guys at HT in the South Stand and thought, "Wow, the marketing team are really going down the controversial content route"

I remember when it used to be both: "we love you City, we do" as well as "**** off G4s!" Nowadays it seems to be mostly the latter

Think you are just being pedantic aren’t you. 

A bit. There's people being worse than this on these things nowadays though, so I hear.

The people on here going "we have always been a selling club!" need to know the history of their/our club a little better, to know about one of the greatest parts of our history. Worth flagging up, I'd say.
