I remember when we were s@@t

the very 1st clip against qpr, kernaghan gets beat easy and eddie mcgoldrick closes him down...why did we get relegated again...??
 
That Middlesbrough game was just unbelievable. There were suggestions that the players did it on purpose as a protest against Sven being sacked, which I didn't want to believe at the time. But if you just look at the lack of heart, fight and determination to win the ball back, absolutely no urgency and we gave the ball away so easily. You can tell from the commentators reaction even on the first goal that Boro weren't used to scoring goals that season!

Seriously though, there was a time when I used to get depressed watching back all these shite games(and there are many!) over the years, but I don't anymore. Because I know now it all has a happy ending! Every bit of pain we've ever felt has now all become worth it thanks to Sunday 13th May.

Thanks Sergio!
 
I remember a game away to Oxford.We were 2-0 down i was behind the goal and i shouted to a guy i knew sat in the stands to my right,''What the **** is going on??'' He just shrugged.Dibble had let a soft second goal in and was getting some stick from the fans and giving some back when he took a goalkick,collapsed and got carried off.We had no sub keeper so one of our outfieldd players went in goal.We eventually somehow drew the game 3-3 i think and to cap it all i got food poisoning and ended up in hospital for 2 days,lol!

Looking back now it was like a groundhog day of crap performances,false hope and even more crap performances.How we stuck at it for 35 years i will never know.Sure there were some laughs,a few promotions along the way but on the whole it was one long horrible nightmare and one i never thought we would wake up from!

Even though we were in the premier league the second season under Pearce and beanie was some of the worst football i have ever seen following City.It was the first time i had a season ticket and didn't feel like going even though it was paid for it was so bad.Sheffield United i think it was at home summed it up for me.Freezing cold and 0-0 at half time i wondered why i was not at home in front of the fire and considered leaving.0-0 at 90 minutes and even colder i wished i had!

That is why the whole football world can say what they want about the money etcetera trust me we have earned that takeover,money and any good football and success that comes with it!
 
anymore than 2sheiks said:
I started going in the early 80's and I don't miss any of it. Gimme what we've got now. I've paid my dues.

Ive got videos of games in the 80s that I used to buy from the Club,jesus its difficult viewing - got them so I could show my kids what things were like in the old days.

Apart from Irish ancestory the only other thing I have in common with Noel Gallagher is that I always knew these days would come!

Can't find footage of this, but the 4-1 defeat at home to Charlton in December 2000. Didn't Dunne try to lump it so hard upfield that it cannoned off a Charlton player and looped all the way over Weaver from halfway?

We've have come some way since then.

Rule: Only post videos/responses to posted videos of us when we were shit. Don't necessarily have to be defeats, just shit. The more obscure the better.

I mean, look at the line-up in this video. That's shit.
