Major Isewater Posted June 18, 2014 Report Share Posted June 18, 2014 I would say it's fairly even KM. At this stage it's all conjecture who knows what will happen between now and this fixture? Cotts might replace Van Gaal as Dutch coach , we may have been taken over by a Saudi Russian billionaire we ,i know this sounds far fetched ,may even have signed somebody by then .

Nogbad the Bad Posted June 18, 2014 Report Share Posted June 18, 2014 They mostly seem very confident, and based on City's 2 abject performances against them last season, perhaps understandably so. I think we'll give a much, much better account of ourselves this time, so they'll have to hope their newly assembled team is cohesive right from the start.

Admin phantom Posted June 18, 2014 Admin Report Share Posted June 18, 2014 Was almost believing until you ruined it with "may even have signed somebody by then ." crazy talk ! Like I put a few weeks ago, Cotts is away until this weekend, people made comments about technology etc, but nothing was going to happen until he was back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkeh Posted June 18, 2014 Report Share Posted June 18, 2014 Like I put a few weeks ago, Cotts is away until this weekend, people made comments about technology etc, but nothing was going to happen until he was back so how are the evening post getting all the quotes from Cotts? they aren't making them up are they?

Admin phantom Posted June 18, 2014 Admin Report Share Posted June 18, 2014 so how are the evening post getting all the quotes from Cotts? they aren't making them up are they?

It was a long time ago, my memory isn't what it was..... you could be right *edit* Just checked on Wiki, yes first leg 1-0 Walsh scored, second leg Shutt with a diving header..... then they scored sometime later..... don't think anybody cared at the time (which is why I forgot they had! ) 1988 - what a year! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1988_Football_League_play-offs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wanderingred Posted June 19, 2014 Report Share Posted June 19, 2014 Since our playoff result up there that sent them down, our results at Brammal Lane have been: 0-3 1-4 1-3 0-3 1-2 0-3 0-2 2-3 0-3 Not a single point and a number of hammerings. Its hardly surprising they are confident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always had them down as our bogey team, home and away, but I don't think we've even been that bad at Molineux.......have we!?

Always had them down as our bogey team, home and away, but I don't think we've even been that bad at Molineux.......have we!? Started a new job in March and work with a big Wolves fan, he's even christened me as '6 points' IIRC We haven't won at Molineux since 1938 - I read somewhere that Bramwall Lane was 1957 (may even have been the club website) So marginally worse against Wolves but given in the last 15 years losses at Sheffield United relegated us and handed promotion to Stoke/Hull (turned out to be stoke) Sheffield United probably feels worse!

Wanderingred Posted June 19, 2014 Report Share Posted June 19, 2014 Wolves we at least got a point at in recent years, 1-1 with the Fontaine, Burtons window moment! But yes, thats another bogey ground along with countless others... Ipswich, Birmingham, Stoke, Forest, Leeds, Cardiff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
