Yes, I can't recall a City first team regular getting more flak on here than Gundogan. That was until Mahrez signed!

Semi-finals at Hillesborough have sometimes ended in tragedy. This talk of going back to Villa Park and Hillsborough is pissing into the wind. It just isn't going to happen. People need to get over it. Even if this were not the case, there are other issues. Villa Park is too small and...

Maye they should wait until the construction works are complete? Just saying like!

Who can forget when Roy Paul left Swansea to sign for Millonarios in Bogota. Columbia was not in FIFA at the time and players go freely without transfer fees. Apparently Mrs. Roy Paul was not impressed and he was told to return to the UK or else. He complied and shortly afterwards was signed...

I was unable to travel that particular midweek match and did list my ticket for the exchange but there were no takers. Travel from Edinburgh has been a nightmare for the past two seasons with Avanti and TPE consistently cancelling trains or not listing tickets in advance that they think may be...

I thought he was English?

I think we should be paid to attend!

The problem is that certain ‘home grown’ neo-nazis appear to be trying to ‘appropriate’ this flag to their own ends. It is not that simple.

It's his counterpart at Wembley I am worried about!

I have now secured two tickets for the semi-final. My wife is struggling with health issues and cannot travel for this match. I want to transfer her ticket to my son. I had much the same issue last year for the final against United and he got in with no problems. Does anyone have any idea how...

I thought this thread was losing the plot when someone posted that it was all the fault of Gordon Brown! After that it somehow managed to go downhill. Mods, please lock the thread or get a grip.

Did Maine Road even have 35,000 seats at that stage? The Wigan play off round immediately before had an attendance of 31,305 at Maine Road including the pie eaters. It is a fundamental principle that for finals should have an even split of tickets. You can’t pick and choose which matches it...

And the League were quite right Would you have supported United getting 50% more tickets at Wembley last season than City? Do it on average attendance and United would have received 60% to 40% for City. Gillingham were perfectly entitled to receive the same allocation as City.

And put Keith Houchen up front?

The thread proves that there is nothing many football supporters like more than a good moan. My first game was in 1963 with City heading for relegation. City came nowhere near Wembley until 1969. I went there four times in the 13 years from 1963 to 1976. I had moved to Coventry by 1981 and...

No Johnny Crossan, Alex Harley, Matt Grey, Bobbie Kennedy, Cliff Sear, Roy Clarke, etc. I could forgive that but missing out Roy Paul!

It became a ‘standard price’ as soon as the draw was made. They didn’t need to wait for the accelerated demand before hiking the prices. I have had to suffer the consequences of this recently. I used to be able to advance book a hotel for City mid-week European matches for £35 at Ibis Budget...

Before European matches myself and my son would often go to La Viña, a Spanish restaurant on Deansgate. If we were playing Real Madrid, most of the staff on duty would be Barca supporters as the Real Madrid fans were going to the match. If City were playing Barcelona, the staff would be largely...

I was always going to to that. But when it came to it, I couldn’t be arsed.

It is a great help. Having a fast track card gets you on to the platform very quickly after a match. As the card is only active on match days, it does not cover travel on the Sunday after a Saturday match. After a match we are on the platform within five minutes of arriving at the barriers...
