Yes Swansea, other than a roof over the North Bank terrace and that funny looking new stand that only went halfway across one end behind the goal there was very little development over the years.

13 out of 15, the 2 overseas grounds Schalke and the Calderon stumped me! slight guess on Ninian Park as I don't ever remember it being open terrace like that picture but the shirts helped and by elimination it couldn't be the others. Here's another old lost ground, picture taken in 1929 and it staged league football until 2005 (redeveloped obviously) when the club moved to a new stadium. which club?

lets hope Steve and Jon weren't listening this morning then! LM's definitely giving off a bit of a SOD vibe whenever I hear him speak.

Yes, April 2021 so no spectators.

Thinking about this, has there been the opportunity to watch City play the same club at more than 4 grounds, Coventry have played at Highfield Road, Northampton , Birmingham, and the Ricoh (or whatever it's called now) and as these moves were fairly recent City fans may well have seen City at all 4 playing Coventry (I've only seen 3). Similarly Brighton have played City at The Goldstone, Priestfield Gillingham, Withdean, Amex. I can't think of a club we've played at 5 grounds. Edit: I checked and Coventry also played just 1 EFL cup match at Burton's Pirelli Stadium due to an unsafe pitch....against Bristol City. I'd forgotten that. So someone may indeed have covered all 5 venues.

I've been to 43 grounds, 8 of which are no longer in use ( Highbury, Somerton Park, Upton PK , etc,etc) so less than half of the 92. Hats off to those who have done them all. I've only been to 1 ground/match where City weren't playing - White Hart Lane.

Wa To be fair Tomlin was the first thing that came to mind watching that vid ........ although this guy's definitely a bit slimmer than Lee!

Had to check but he was only handed 4 starts by LJ , I get some signings don't work out but he didn't seem to get many chances.....having said that he didn't look any way near the player we're seeing play for Blackburn. He seemed to be a victim of the clubs in the bag policy as we just had too many clubs and LJ only too willing to chop and change them every week .

Do you need to stay in Wigan? How about a hotel convenient to Ewood PK, then get a train to work from Blackburn to Wigan in the morning when trains are more plentiful. ie there is a train leaving B'burn at 7.23 getting to Wigan at 8.13 change Preston. Or stay in Preston - bus/train to Blackburn & back for the match - easy direct train to Wigan in the morning.

As I replied to the Major, Ray Harford not Mick Harford

It was Ray Harford that John Ward wanted. Edit, autocorrect!

It did indeed..The Robins Cafe...I first started going to AG in 1967 - age 13- and we used to call in the cafe and get a chocolate bar before the game. On non match days the players used to go in there for a cup of tea etc.

That's pretty good scran !

Yes, a good listen from the guys, everyone prepared to give Manning a chance, as Dave said we're all fans at the end of the day.

Underconditioned ?

No news revealed on SOTC, the club do excell at one thing though which is preventing any news leaking out, hell even Trump leaked the plans to attack Iran and before ministers have left a cabinet meeting in No 10 they're texting journalists . Yet BCFC have kept things tighter than a ducks arse. Chapeaux!

Not a bad shout - the club were crowing about " England Coaches" when we appointed Simpson and Downing - and they would regard him as "exciting" being current England u21 boss. He wouldn't be my choice btw.

He posts on ziderheads every day , so yes he's ok.

It's probably safe to go back in there now, 50 years... Everyone's forgotten about THAT night

As others have pointed out you would think something would have leaked out from the Oxford end if this is all agreed, they'll be upset to lose him so no real incentive for anyone itk there to keep quiet. IMO.

How long have you got?

Banned for 3 months, he'll be back sometime this month

Nice little boozer, free beer for Dave then
