Yeah really enjoy watching it also, much prefer when it’s just them and no guest though, especially when it’s ex United as they go a bit to heavy on 97-2005 United, heard them stories one too many times now. Interesting to see what Rooney brings to the group. Thought it was a bit of a weird one as they’ve got the harmony right now and no offence to Rooney but he’s incredibly dull to listen too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carragher, Keane and Neville are teaching parody levels. There’s no real insight, just bants and stuff to get 30 second twitter clips. Clearly I’m not the target market though! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TammyAB Posted May 15 Report Share Posted May 15 Andy Cole called us Bristol City every time he mentioned us, well done mate. Neville on the other hand, a 0% success rate in remembering the City part 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Banter pod They are ex top level footballers, I'd be disappointed if they weren't egotistical! I think it's a great podcast, interesting hearing the insights they give, I feel they are all pretty honest, unlike when they are on Sky where they can't be at times 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1team Posted May 15 Report Share Posted May 15 Taking Andy Cole from Arsenal's reserves was one of the finest bits of transfer business the club has ever done imho, less said about his sell on the better! His hattrick V Cardiff was superb and sits high up in my favourite moments. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should clarify that I feel like he was the best player in terms of quality, not necessarily in terms of his overall contribution/worth to the team. There are many who were ultimately more important. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ralphindevon Posted May 16 Report Share Posted May 16 Just watched it, very enjoyable. loved the part where Wrighty asks him “who was with you helping you with the goals?” Cole: “Leroy Rosenior, Wayne Alison, Dzeikanowski…. Ooooohhh bloody hell, Dzeikanowski” Great times and as Cole says, both Dennis Smith and Russel Osman, as well as team mates kept telling him he was too good for us and second tier football. And us supporters agreed. From seeing him on his debut, within about 15 minutes I know I thought the same. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His hattrick V Cardiff was superb and sits high up in my favourite moments. A couple of the Cardiff goals on in this vid, 3:45 mins in. I’m sure that Cardiff game was also the one where they managed to get through the gates round the back of the Open End with “all hell” breaking loose! Re Cole though - I just loved his directness. He got the ball and his first thought was “how can I score a goal from here”. Superb player. Best ever in a City shirt in my opinion. Definitely the one who has had the best career. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What on earth were our then bunch of clowns thinking when they agreed to sell to Newcastle ? I remember thinking at the time that we had paid out our then record fee for a player £500,000, the permanent signing was a fantastic success but with the 30% sell on clause it meant that when we sold him for £1.75 M we effectively received £1,375,000 minus the original investment meant a profit of £875,000. Although that was worth more back then in the football world it was hardly impressive even for the time. We should've held out for £2.5M. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially when you hear Les Kew on the video above saying how so many teams had been after him. We could surely have played them off and increased the bids. And it’s not as if we weren’t aware of how sell on clauses operated as we knew Arsenal had one, so why didn’t we add one too!! One of the worst pieces of business this club has ever done in my opinion. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the worst pieces of business this club has ever done in my opinion. I'm pretty sure that it was after this ridiculous bit of business that we ensured we always installed sell on clauses ourselves. Rather stupid seeing that we were paying a sell on clause to Arsenal that we neglected to install one for a young and clearly talented goalscorer! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course his time with Newcastle, Man Utd and England will always be talked about ahead of his brief spell with us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
