  1. Was wondering the same thing, but I'm guessing that Kompany will want to stay in the top tier, presuming someone wants him. The strange thing is why it has took them so long to play the way they are now, if they had played with the same level of verve and cutting edge throughout the season, then they would be safe by now. Their final match is against Forest, which could be a relegation play off!
  2. Wow, if those 3 all linked up well, we could be taking teams apart for fun next season
  3. Yeah was thinking that also, bet there's a part of him wishing he was staying for their campaign next season. Derby's season might have crumbled without him!
  4. What will next season hold for this guy? Is he gonna be ready to make a difference straight away or is he going to take a while to adapt? TBH, I don't know much about him, but with all the talk of signing Twine, will they both fit into the team? Do we need them both?
  5. Will he mention his time here? Could be worth a listen, amazing to think we binned him off and he's now top scorer.
  6. You say "well done the board (in jest)", but funny thing is we don't have a board! It's just two men who know almost nothing about running a succesful club and an owner who doesn't seem to care anymore, even though his name's on the bloody biggest stand! Personally I'd like to see a board made up with OTIB members, for me I'd go for Exiled Ajax,DaveF and Silvio Dante join the board, with Mr Pop running the finance side! Come on guys, make it happen!
  7. I know you're a genuine City fan, but for me what you've said is strange, as the pull to watch your club is usually stronger than not enjoying the odd game here or there and blaming it on the gaffer's style of play. It is crap sometimes, perhaps like today, I didn't go. But the Blackburn and Leicester games were fantastic, enjoyed them both. I bet you ten grand you'll be back to watch games next season!
  8. I'm not so sure, I think I can already hear SL rubbing his wrinkled hands together and muttering about his nest egg ....
  9. This is bloody brilliant, City are on fire and Blackburn are absolutely crap!
  10. Should be a decent game, you'd have to imagine Sammy will definitely score, and I reckon a 1-1 draw looks about right
  11. Some absolutely fantastic and wild answers here, and some that made me crack up laughing, you bunch of legends!
  12. Out of all our former players still in the game, who would you have back? Scott, Semenyo, Kelly, Webster, or even going back to Reid, Bryan, Flint, Pack, Bentley, if you could tempt one back who would it be? I know Scott is the obvious, but I would love to see Bobby return to his roots and bang in a load of goals for us again. Any other options, or choices? And now if you were gonna go crazy for a moment, which player from the past? Now that's a tough question!!
  13. Never heard of that club before, but my god, now I really want them to suffer back to back relegations and end up back where they started. I might check that in a few years to see if that happens, there's probably a good chance it will!
  14. But the opposing player obviously used a Bruce Lee style old-school karate technique and touched him with a feint finger of death that can almost render a man unconscious or paralysed with the slightest, barely visible moment of contact. Poor sod Ben White is lucky to be alive. Quite a few football players have this very dangerous talent, beware!
  15. Wow I would kill to have that model in place here, if you were a member you could claim to be one of the many owners of the club! Let's do it, let's buy City! Thanks for all responses, makes for fascinating reading!
  16. This question has always interested me, especially with the suggestions on here that SL should sell up, but what happens if he decides he doesn't want to be the owner, this isn't for him, and there's no one else waiting to buy the club? Is it too simple to suggest that would be the end of the club, or not just City, but any other football club in that circumstance? Does the FA have any plan in place to prevent that sort of thing? I find it amazing to think that there are that many wealthy groups/ syndicates / individuals willing to pump so much money into owning football clubs, without having the guarantee of making significant returns on their huge outlay. They all open themselves up to the possibility of being abused or villified, losing tonnes of cash, and must all be a little bit bonkers! Football club owners, I salute you!
  17. Unfortunately SL seems quite happy to let the club meander along the river of the Championship, growing each year in small ways, providing expensive and sometimes decent football in a nice, modern, quiet stadium, that offers the occasional brilliant game amongst a sea of sub-standard football, and one day his ownership might take us to the Premier League, at this rate in about 15 years, in which case he probably won't be around to see it anyway and Ryan Reynold's Wrexham would have won the Premier League at least three times by then, so what's the bloody point? I wish they would speed the whole thing up, chuck a little bit of Luton magic at it. Oh, if only we had Tony Bloom, or the Brentford owner, although I don't actually know who that is! I like SL, just wish he woke up one day and realised this club would be freaking huge in the top tier.
  18. Is it possible we could have Hogg as the manager and LM his assistant? Hogg delivers a much better interview!
  19. Yep, that also sounds good to me! I like nothing better than seeing City youngsters breaking into the first team, but if we could spruce that up with some Premier League trained talent, I'm all for it!
  20. Was thinking about this yesterday and there's something nice about getting a top ten finish, so let's go for it, get as many points as possible, see if we can hit at least 60.
  21. Trying to think of a benefit of having Manning as the gaffer, and an obvious one could be using his former Hammers connections to bring in some young ones for a season loan? Maybe the next Declan Rice, or going back a decade or two - the next Joe Cole? It would be a big boast for the squad for next season. I'm still waiting for us to bring in our next Tammy and a West Ham player would go down a treat.
  22. And why would it even matter if CNG is a Bristol Sport employee, so what? I'd work for Bristol Sport if they paid me enough to get out of bed each morning!
  23. Good question, but I'd keep them both, I love both of them! But if James does want to leave, I'll tip my hat and respect his decision, he's been a quality player for us. AH TO HELL WITH THAT, PLEASE STAY, MATTY!
  24. Unbelievable saves today, especially the two (3?) from Vardy. His reflexes and agility are truly sensational. Hope he stays here for a while yet, but also curious, is he Premier League bound or is this his natural level? What would his value be? I've no idea his contract length but would definitely give him another 3 years. We do still need a better back up keeper though.
