    Francis Lee

    Read it again. That is exactly what he is saying. He'll always forgive him Ball because he clinched the signing of Kinkladze.

    SuperLeague 2014 Playoffs.

    I follow Rugby League although I don't support any particular team. But I'm curious as to why some City fans who have posted in this thread follow teams like Bradford and Leeds? Northwest teams I understand but a team from Yorkshire?

    Francis Lee

    I've read this post several times and still don't get it? what was he supposed to do leave the Kippax standing which would have been completely illegal. The Kippax was redeveloped almost 10 years before City moved.

    Francis Lee

    It's hard to distinguish just who did the most damage as a chairman between Swales and Lee. Lee's main downfall was his shocking managerial choices. Obviously I missed Lee as a player but I was there all through his running of the club and it was just disaster after disaster obviously starting...

    Francis Lee

    Also worth noting that I remember hearing an interview with Hunter before we played Leeds not long after Franny became chairman and he half jokingly wondered if he should attempt to go in the Maine Road boardroom knowing Franny would be around. Was Francis Lee's reputation more off the pitch...

    Francis Lee

    Yes mate I've previously seen it and in the video with Willie he also mentions Hunter was scared of him. He wasn't a dirty player though was he (Franny I mean) not like Hunter.

    Francis Lee

    Just watched the Les Chapman meets Willie Donachie video on City TV in which he describes Franny as the hardest footballer he'd ever known. I've also seen a clip in which Jack Charlton also says the same. This is quite something considering I suppose at the time Mike Doyle would have been...

    Great Saves

    Glad you remembered this game mate as it was what I was going to mention as soon as I saw this thread. My Dad was in Germany at the time but phoned me as I was coming out of the back of the Kippax to find out the result? I remember telling him it was the best goalkeeping performance I had even...

    What would be a fair price to watch City?

    My opinion for what it's worth? I had a season ticket from 1987 until 2009 and also rarely missed a home cup game. Since then I have hardly attended compared to what I did do. I am however on the waiting list and hopeful of a season ticket again assuming I can get one at a reasonable price...

    Roy Keane You T***

    Okay well that settles that argument then as I wasn't sure so cheers for clarifying.

    Roy Keane You T***

    Whilst I've no doubts that what Keane did was a vile, malicious act of violence those who think Andy Morrison would have just belted Keane into submission are a little misguided I believe. Wasn't he (Keane) a pretty decent amateur boxer back in Ireland at one point? Also wasn't Morrison on the...

    Peter Reid

    A lot of mixed memories for me from this period in our history. The FA Cup defeats to Notts County and the Spurs QF being the lowest. The Liverpool 2-1 home win at the start of the 1991/92 season being the highest. 5th, 5th and 9th weren't bad but he made some bad calls with players and I've no...

    Mass Murderers

    Not exactly a murderer but does anyone remember a man named Malcolm Fairley who was nicked named The Fox and brought terror to a number of areas in the south of England during 1984? I was living in the Southeast at the time and remember well the amount of panic this mans antics caused. As well...

    Non League Thread

    Must go and watch Maine Road more often. Seeing as they are based just four streets up from me I really should make an effort.

    Thank You Micah

    Can only express the same levels of sadness that have already been spoken on here tonight. But I think the time was right for both parties. Really hope Micah enjoys his beautiful new home and embraces it. Good luck mate.

    Alexandra Park.

    Huge Carp, Pike and various other's were all dredged out by Police Frogmen and rehomed up in the Lake District when the pond was cleared. To the questions about the Ducks? Yes it has more Ducks, Moorhens etc than ever before. The Terrapins that have been in it since the Moss Side riots in 1981...
