KnowleUtd City Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 In fairness to Easyjet, I did get 6 of us on the Sat flight up & Sun Eve flight back for £57 each at 10.00am, so it wasn't a case that they just ramped prices up from the start, supply and demand I'm sure. Hopefully loads are already on the flights! COYR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRock Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 Boxing Day away again!!!!! Can't belieeeeeve it... surely someone at the Club realise they're losing a mint as that date, for the exiled fan, is the easiest to attend home fixture of the season. I can remember 17,000 plus turn outs when we we're in 3rd/4th division. Surely.... start/finish away means we deserve a Boxing Day home fixture.

The Championship season finishes a week earlier than league one and our last game will be on the Sunday whilst The Sags will be playing on the Saturday. Having a quick glance at ours and Cardiff's fixtures it looks as if both sets of fans will be travelling to the same parts of teh country on the same day again so could be bumping into a few of them at service stations etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Portland Bill Posted June 18, 2009 Report Share Posted June 18, 2009 Was that Keegans Home coming game? No, this was one or two years before Keegan, all i remember is it ended up 0-0. I had always wanted to savour there passionate support, but there support was pathetic. :noexpression: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had always wanted to savour there passionate support, but there support was pathetic. :noexpression: In the dry years. I visited my '2nd team' in early april, watched the Chelsea game....atmosphere was far from pathetic for a team in the bottom 3 and looking all but down. I'd give it another go if I were you, although we shouldn't expect 52,000 this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest RobbieTurner Posted June 18, 2009 Report Share Posted June 18, 2009 Didn't we get gubbed about 0-5 as well? Pretty certain I was at Leicester with some Brentford mate's, and some guy tapped me on the shoulder to say City were 0-3 down. How on earth he knew I was a City fan I'll never know! I didn't utter another word that afternoon! tut tut....4-1 not 5-0 and David Kelly scored a hat trick against us....again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The two Premier League games were an eye opener and the support given to the team by the "Geordie Nation" was abysmal. I have never heard so little noise made by so many apart from the slagging of their own players. Great place to go for a weekend, crap support, tallest stand [just wait] in the Championship would be my summary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frome Valley Posted June 18, 2009 Report Share Posted June 18, 2009 They beat us 5-0 at AG in '95 or '96 in the league cup or FA cup. And they beat us 5-0 at their place in the league in '92. City beat Leicester 2-1 in 92 and didn't play them at all between 94 -2000/01. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frome Valley Posted June 18, 2009 Report Share Posted June 18, 2009 Double checked and we did play them twice. http://www.soccerbase.com/head2.sd?team1id...amp;team2id=376 Doh my mistake ... thought it referred to Leicester which as anybody knows including me now is nowhere the Midlands, didn't beat City 5-0 as that really was Newcastle and Leicester are nothing to do with your post at all.

redfred Posted June 18, 2009 Report Share Posted June 18, 2009 I think your info maybe incorrect. We were the first game they played under Keegan. Keegan took over on Feb 5th 1992. We played them on the 8th Feb 1992. You're absolutely right. We were first up and then Barnsley were the next team they played at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bristolcitysweden Posted June 18, 2009 Report Share Posted June 18, 2009 Newcastle's are up and we have them away on October 3rd. MOD NOTE Please note, we do not have permission to publish the fixture list in full. Anyone doing so will have their post removed. By all means post links, but do not post anything which could be considered a list. Thanks. Ryan booked for Owls (h) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about the tallest stand in the UK...Wembley included. Fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
