    Did Martin Tyler

    I seem to remember an "Ashen faced Supermac" claiming the first goal was offside. On a more serious note, in Tyler's autobiography "It's Windy Up the Gantry", he writes that after the 10 - 1 game he always regretted not finding better words to describe the events unfolding. "The scoreline was...

    "Stupendous!"

    Re: Poll - Stupendous, Quinn or Tyler? Tyler - without any doubt.

    Hansen, Lawrensen and Shearer bring shame on the BBC

    MOTD has always been a personal soapbox for one presenter or another. Bluemooners of a particular vintage will remember Jimmy Hill's astonishing attack on Brian Kidd

    Hansen, Lawrensen and Shearer bring shame on the BBC

    "Thought Crime" it is then. I'd get depressed if choco rations weren't up.

    David Silva

    Only this. Perversely, playing in teams with so many other excellent players somehow prevents full appreciation of just how good Iniesta is.

    Yaya Toure

    Never seen a City player better at moving the ball on and retaining position. Time and again takes out 2 or 3 opposition players with his midfield passing game. When it is 0 - 0 in the big games when we need a breakthrough, he engages 6th gear and runs at the opposition like a freight train...

    Who you lookin' at

    Yep. Now you can look forward to getting home from the game, popping on the TV to review the action on 'Match Choice', and yelling - "WTF - no match choice - no-one told me this was a substandard football bundle". Grumbles for some time. As a Virgin subscriber, I'd NEVER recommend it to a footy...

    Juventus UEFA Cup 1976/77

    The official site (mcfc.co.uk) thinks the return leg was at Stadio Delle Alpi. Ah well. At least they realise the home leg was at Maine Road.

    Boycott The Lass O'Gowrie Pub

    Local pubs should be for local supporters. My local, run by Edward and Tubbs, would have none of this nonsense there.

    Juventus UEFA Cup 1976/77

    Also, Tueart hit the crossbar. I remember we all felt 1-0 not enough to take to Turin.

    Ruining Football Since 2008 Flag Trouble?

    How about "ABOUT TO BE EJECTED - OFF MESSAGE SINCE 2010"

    Rangers coming to Stretford

    Sorry Maly. This time, with respect, if someone has told you there is any religious element to football support in Manchester, then they have misled you. There is none. Growing up in 1960's Manchester, I never encountered it. I've never encountered it at City. I don't feel strongly about much...

    Rangers coming to Stretford

    +1 but without any respect. Please keep even the faintest whiff of monkey brained sectarian shyte away from our club.

    Which set of fans are the most deluded and why?

    I think many of our fans are fairly deluded (myself included). I don't think we have ever been the dominant force in English football. That includes 68 to 73. Maybe if we'd done the double in 68 or won championship in 72 you could make a case. But as the record books stand - the 1968...

    What are City playing at?

    It might actually ruin football if we don't trip up once in a while. After we've blown apart Real Madrid's record for consecutive wins, of course.

    What are City playing at?

    Chill, all. City spunking 500 million (or whatever) of NEW money will change football. Predicting how it will change football is a reasonable thing to do - and holding the opinion that it is a terrible thing that will destroy the game is a reasonable opinion to hold. There's nothing to say that...
