Kid in the Riot Posted October 27, 2015 Report Share Posted October 27, 2015 I remember that but wasn`t sure it was Wolves. Did we draw that day?Yes, 1-1.Decent time to be playing Wolves as they've lost 3 on the spin and have a derby at Brum on Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
East End Old Boy Posted October 27, 2015 Report Share Posted October 27, 2015 There was a game we lost there in the relegation season in the late 1990s when one of our defenders passed back to Phillips who tried to kick the ball but missed and it rolled into the goal. Very depressing game.I think the back pass was by Sebok, although must disagree, it was a very good game which we were unlucky to lose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrahamC Posted October 27, 2015 Report Share Posted October 27, 2015 Still, we followed up Benny's first game with a 5-0 reverse at Bradford! That's got to be the worst start ever for a manager?!Didnt he offer to resign after those two disasters?!No, he didn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cunnyfunt Posted October 28, 2015 Report Share Posted October 28, 2015 excuse my ignorance but when did we last beat wolves?i've followed city for years but am struggling to remember.all that comes to mind are nightmare thrashings courtesy of steve bull and a 6-1 thrashing at home one year.would love to see city beat them next tuesday !! There have been a fair few 6 and 5-1 thrashings in the past. David Kelly springs to mind! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Son of Fred Posted October 28, 2015 Report Share Posted October 28, 2015 The 2-1 away loss a few years ago was one of the most depressing games I can recall. Wolves had their first shot in the 70th minute and then scored twice in the next 10ish.remember watching us outplay them up there and lose 2-0...Paul Jones in goal for them who played an absolute blinder,saving point blank on more than one occasion from 'tanglefoot'.....creaking memory banks say Robbie Dennison drifting inside from out wide scoring for them.

BobBobSuperBob Posted October 28, 2015 Report Share Posted October 28, 2015 There have been a fair few 6 and 5-1 thrashings in the past. David Kelly springs to mind! More so Steve Bull must have scored about %70 of his career goals against us - more than one hat trick unless my memory is playing tricks !!!

Mad Cyril Posted October 28, 2015 Report Share Posted October 28, 2015 I remember that one. We'd just been drawn against Liverpool in the cup so they chose that game to hand out priority vouchers. As a result the ground was rammed , remember being in the East End stood on the seats to try and see!There was a game we lost there in the relegation season in the late 1990s when one of our defenders passed back to Phillips who tried to kick the ball but missed and it rolled into the goal. Very depressing game.Though, of course, the best victory was by the three little pigs!at the risk of winning 'pedant of the day', I didn't think they had seats in the Eastend that season, I thought the Phillips miss kick was at West Brom, and Wolfie kicked the three little pigs' asses.Otherwise, please carry on.

'Orns Posted October 28, 2015 Report Share Posted October 28, 2015 Remember the Jacki game well, sure that's the only time I've seen us beat themWe have a truly awful record against them, so real stuffings in there along the way too.

Nomad Posted October 28, 2015 Report Share Posted October 28, 2015 Wolves are an "eat at your own risk" sort of meat. But there are famous cases of wolf eating. Probably the most famous involves Lewis and Clark. They shot 18 on their trip but ate only one--and only in desperation. But they ate the hell out of dog meat. The expedition ate 190 dogs total, according to the Natural History of the Lewis and Clark Expedition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havanatopia Posted October 28, 2015 Report Share Posted October 28, 2015 Under Russell Osman, remember it well.Ian Brown's only league goal, I think and a poor mistake by future City keeper Mike Stowell.Russell Osman is a Winner.,.. haha.. what a notion.Haven't beat them away since 1931A lot of records will be tumbling down like cascades in the next few years. Quiz Time..........Can anyone name the two clubs, out of the current 92, that we have not played for the longest period in either a cup or a league game? Naturally you can all get the year... thats an easy one if you think about it... well it should be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southvillekiddy Posted October 28, 2015 Report Share Posted October 28, 2015 Wasn't there a televised game that we drew 2-2 at home, played in the most atrocious weather. I seem to remember the wind and driving rain playing absolute havoc.That was a brilliant game with the "Green Giant" in goal for them who we had had on loan up at the Carlisle game. Maynard laid one off for Adebola and that great man returned the favour to get the 2 -2. The wind was so strong it seemed that it was almost blowing the goal-kicks back again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lew-T Posted October 28, 2015 Report Share Posted October 28, 2015 Remember the 2-2 on Sky a few years back. Maynard and Adebola got the goals after being 2-0 down! The weather was something else that night. The most recent game though was losing something like 4 or 5-1 at home. Neil Danns scored a worldie for us I think!?The lets pretend we scored a goal chants come out that day, and the 4-0 and you ****** it up.Good times despite the shit football on display! edit: here it is...https://youtu.be/wv6WxF06qD8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very depressing game.thats the one mate, I thought it was Matt Hill. I was going to put about the pass back but I wasn't 100% Sebok was playing that's right. did that game end 5-1 or 6-1 thats the game I went to! Thought Wolves ground was alright too back then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
