Haha! You should try 35 years of sh*t house football, mate! Anyway, it's great to see at least one of the "family" doing well, and with a possibility for a best-ever finish :)

I wondered the same thing. He's been added to the squad, and it was unlikely even we would throw away a game where a poor team needed to score three. Surely a perfect low-pressure scenario to give him some time on the pitch?

Exactly this, and not only that, I had the other teams around us all winning, so "in my head" we're two points better off than I expected! Nevertheless, we were shite last night!

Excellent. Done! Thanks :)

As far as I could tell, the only hint of trouble came when we were all getting pissed off by being held back when there was no sign of any lingering Kiev fans outside. Anyway, loved every minute of the trip, and might need to start negotiations with Mrs Lazza for another mid-week pass...!

Just got back to my hotel near Boryspil airport, flight back leaves in five-and-a-half hours! And as a first away day in Europe, I'd like to say: GET THE FUCK IN!!!!!!! Bloody loved it! Good show by the 500 who made it over here, and a great performance by the team on the whole (ok, not...

They told us there were 550 tickets sold when we picked ours up. Not many Blues about that we've seen. A few others where we are (O'Briens) and a couple at the brew-pub we went to earlier. Where is everyone?!

ETA 4pm tomorrow! Proper beer sounds good to me. How near is it to the Radisson Blue hotel for ticket collection?!

I think me and a mate might hold the record for the shortest visit: arriving into Boryspil at 14:30 on Air France, and leaving at 07:10 the next day on KLM...! Based on the k/o time at 21:45, and an estimated finish time of 23:45, and having to haul myself back out to the hotel at the airport...

Get in! Got my ticket, and can't wait. My first ever European away day coming up :) A bit of a logistical challenge in the end as I need to be in Aberdeen on Friday for work! But I managed to get on Air France from Newcastle via Paris on the way out, and KLM via Amsterdam back to Edinburgh on...

I'm not one for posting expletive-laden comments....but FUCK ME! It looks like I might be able to make this one! Would be my first away day in Europe so to say I'm getting a bit giddy is an understatement ! It's all down to whether tickets are still on sale Monday morning for Cityzens, as that's...

And yet another poor, poor referee. Two assaults missed on our players, and I didn't see a single occasion where he applied his decisions evenly. Fans in good voice, though, especially the first half, and I felt a bit emotional singing Pelle his Lamborghini song (possibly for the last time for...

Exactly. I don't mind a bit of whining now and then, and we certainly made hard work of it tonight , but we won and had a cleaN sheet away from home. Don't forget how many times we've played this lot awAy and lost 1-0 in recent years!

Although it's probably the case that our sponsorship linked to Abu Dhabi is less than 30% of revenue, it's still a move designed to hold us back. Clearly, City are an attractive prospect for any AD company to be involved with as we have a high global visibility and, I would guess, a very high...

I'll be there. Nice to have a bonus local game :) Having said that, I got my ticket through a friend with points, so didn't risk missing out. But I looked on the ticket site today and there still seemed to be tickets left yet when I tried to select a stand, both seemed to show up with no seats...

Asa Hartfordshire?

So, I'm going to put my neck on the line and predict Sergio will be next to 100 league goals....! (Just found this thread when I was trying to find out who our last player was to score 100 league goals!).... But I wonder if anyone else in the current squad has a chance to make it... Kelechi...

Exactly this. I sometimes think that this point is missed quite often. To put it another way, the real reason for the Academy is to generate money that can be fed back into the club to buy better players. Generating 1-2 first team players every 5 years would be great, but the vast majority...

Had my first email address as a student at University, in my final year as an undergraduate, so would've been mid-1993...and can honestly say, I thought it was just a novelty (especially as I didn't know anyone else with one!) In my first year as a post-grad, I started using the Internet...

The fact that we still have the two teams above us to play at home is a major factor in my optimism; I think we'll do it. But in the end, like previous years, there will be surprise results for all the top 4 in the closing weeks of the season, and I think it will (unfortunately) come down to the...
