It has to be Geoff Hurst. Won you the World Cup. Replaced the ultimate striker Jimmy Greaves and did what he was supposed to do…..score goals. He didn’t need to be an all around player but just a striker who scored goals when it mattered.

He’ll go to Manchester City Women and finish 6th. Gareth Taylor had finished 5th the previous season before going off to manage a CFG club in Bhutan.

Georgia miss a penalty……can this season get any better??

It’s Fergie time all over again……..

He is excellent with working with a limited squad of players. His achievements at Kilmarnock were a portent of things to come. He is still naturally negative and this has cost Scotland matches in the past. Defensively always good but always hampered by our lack of quality strikers or even decent...

I was astounded that we actually got any money for Sterling at all. His final seasons at City were well below standard and he has surprisingly maintained that level at Chelsea.

He might be ridiculed as a useless Rag on Blue Moon but Scott McTominay is always brilliant for Scotland.

A shout out for the mighty Binos - League 2 Champions 2022/23 . A season of consolidation in League 1 in 2023/24 will do nicely. A dozen City Academy players on loan would be nice.

Pellegrini absolutely never got the respect. In case we forget the EPL Manager of the season for 2013/14 was…….Tony Pulis!!! His crap Crystal Palace side finished 11th and were quickly knocked out all of the Cups. That twat Alan Pardew denied Mancini of the EPL Manager of the season in 2011/12...

Fence panels which have never been painted. Don’t think the landlord would be happy if they were sky blue.

My dog is 12 and for the first time ever has had ‘seasonal flank alopecia’. Vet reckons it may have been triggered by grass seed and excessive pollen levels. Seems that a large number of dogs down here in Somerset have been affected. Any Bluemooners dogs suffered from this condition? Wonder if...

Remember seeing him play for St Mirren against the mighty Stirling Albion at Annfield on 1 January 1972. He was 18 and in the Albion programme notes (which I still have) he was “tipped for the top” and “has already caught the eye of Scotland team manager Tommy Docherty”. He had a nightmare game...

Taylor is the luckiest man in football. To have been given another season is frankly bobbins. The womens team has consistently been the weakest part at City and especially under Taylor. I expect nothing from them next season and he’ll be sacked…..total waste of a year.

Fantastic night. To think that 25 years ago we were playing Gillingham in that playoff.

That was worth me personally waiting 39 years for……..Hopefully the first of many for the best team ever. GET IN CITY.

No. We are playing a team who are fortunate to have made the final. We knocked out the best of the rest - Bayern and Real Madrid. They will be happy at beating AC Milan in the semifinal. We will play a team that will park the bus - 2 banks of 5 - and will be happy to take us to penalties. In the...

At least you have some prime suspects and phone evidence if the worst happens. I’d change that 1978 City shirt (£30 @ 3Retro.com) to the shirt worn by Sergio Aguero on 13 May 2012 for insurance purposes…….

This hopeful treble is so much better than that achieved by the Rags in 1999. They secured it with a scruffy, scrappy late win. Bayern were overconfident and failed to beat a United team missing Keane and Scholes. Even old Pisscan couldn’t believe that they’d won. Mind you…….I’d take a scruffy...

Now then, now then…..take the train. Older Blue Moon posters may remember that Jimmy Savile turned up at the Theatre of Dreams in 2010 in his Rolls Royce with a film crew. Jimmy promised to “Fix It” for the Rags….. United have had some absolutely embarrassing “celebrity” fans. The only genuine...

The USA should easily win this World Cup……but are in transition. When England beat the USA the last time they played it was possibly the worst USA team ever. The NWSL is now in full swing and the quality of the USA players is obvious. Picking the best squad is the key for the coach…..but their...
