and 25 years ago they were too big to play in the f.a. cup

And they recently showed off proudly their last trophy which was the Pan Asian Who Fingered The Last Doughnut Cup.

They’ll be playing in the second round soon enough.

His criticism would carry much more weight if he hadn't have been one of the biggest problems at the club over the last four years.

Aye. He’s got a fucking nerve.

Some **** is being punted because they should have drawn them at home.

 

[TinFoilHat]

The rags might beat Grimsby should it go to penalties.

And this is how Howard Webb will manipulate the rags back into the top 4.

Yep like Var the referees have more chance of helping them out! It’s manipulation of the game!

 

[Tracking back]

Jose Mourinho is apparently their third most successful manager and they have only 3 managers in their entire history that have won the English league title. City’s last three managers have won the league for context.

We'll not see those types of statistics broadcast on Sly Sports or the BBC anytime soon.

The rags have become a myth, and urban legend, the man behind the curtain.

It amazes me how the media continue to get a tune out of that club. To say they're a mid-table team is offensive to the likes of Brentford, Fullham and Brighton.

I wouldn't be surprised if they're closer to a relegation battle than a European birth this season.

Biggest ever crowd at old toilet
Wolves v Grimsby :)

They would be buggered if they wanted to join the rags now.

It's a prerequisite to be a childhood fan these days.

Haven't their last ten signing all been rag fans?

 

[Tracking back]

I bet AMoron will play a full-strength side

He better had if he wants to stay in the cup competition.

They are playing Grimsby after all.

 

[waspish]

Rags will get a record penalty haul this season and fernandes will score the 30 of them

They brought this in around 2016 I think and it just fizzled out after a few months as it would have been about 10 penalties every match.

They'll be carefully selected

And the rags and Littlewoods were the main offenders.

If the FA had held their nerve and maintained the law, excessive holding at corners would be a thing of the past now.
