No I'm not looking at the season on paper as I saw near enough every game. I agree we didn't build on the title of 2012 but I don't just blame Mancini for that but that's not really what I'm getting at. We have moved on and I wish others could do the same.

I'd welcome safe standing I really would although I think it might be quite difficult to implement at the Etihad due to the angle of the terracing/concrete. However we can bang this drum as much as we want. Until we have a huge change in the law it isn't going to happen. And lets not look at it...

I loved Mancini and didn't agree with his sacking. Those that said his final season was a poor one I also don't agree with. Second in the League and getting to the FA Cup Final is not deemed failure in my book (anyone else would have been a legend had they done this). However we have seriously...

Correct. My Dad was at the first game at Stamford Bridge and recalls it was a nightmare for the City fans that actually attended.

Apologies but that's pretty harsh I reckon. Different levels/types of emotion/depression cause different reactions in different people. So if one person want's to talk about it on Bluemoon that doesn't make them any better or worse than one who doesn't. You might want to learn a little bit more...

Seen Bez having a row with his Girlfriend on Alexandra Park yet again today but this is nothing new in Whalley Range.

Re: Players signed by City after fine performances against u A few years ago when we still had Gary Owen and co presenting the Legends Football Phone in Horswill was the Sunderland representative in the Northeast's equivalent show.

Agreed mate. I went to college with his daughter many moons ago so I appreciate how big a City fan he is. It was just another low moment in a dark day sadly.

Emotions were running high I guess but his crime was to continue to try and sell his fanzine despite our relegation.

Never forget that day - ever. Some of the worst violence I have even seen watching City. The atmosphere before, during and after the game was pure evil. Saw some disgusting scenes inside and outside the ground including KOTK's Dave Wallace getting turned over by fellow City fans outside the away...

So obviously staged it's scary. Time to turn off I think.

Just looked out the window for the first time in a couple of hours and it's like a winter wonderland scene in Whalley Range now. It's obviously been snowing heavily since earlier and has settled.

The first SD1 we had was a 3500 V8 at the end of the seventies. It was replaced five years later by a Vanden Plas but as it was by now the 1980's my Dad decided instead of sticking with a V8 to move down an engine size to a 2600. To this day he maintains there was very little between the two...

All of the great moments I've seen have been mentioned so time for something different. That balmy August night back in 1991 when we beat Liverpool 2-1 with David White scoring twice and Dean Saunders missing a penalty. Id been to Highfield Road for the seasons opener on the Saturday when Quinn...

Still a real shame the Rover brand withered and died the way it did. My Dad had two SD1's and later on a 827SLI fastback and they were all nice cars.

Another great shout. I remember back in the mid 1980's my Dad coming home in the Daimler Double Six version of this car that belonged to his boss and it was a truly stunning motor. He (my Dad) later owned an XJ40 and although it was a great car it didn't have the looks of the classic Series 3.

Not shocked to see the E-type figures so highly. A truly beautiful car in Series 1 or 2 form. A close family friend had a Series 3 however and that was a bit of a pig to look at if I'm honest. Another personal favourite of mine was the Jenson Interceptor although I know all about the problems...

I can only echo the views of others. Delighted the Beeb is retaining coverage as I love MOTD. People have a moan about certain people that pundit on the show but it's a far more professional analysis than anything ITV can ever muster.

Whilst I wish them all the best it must be pretty gutting to be taken over by rich investors and then the reality of FFP dawns. Sheffield United also have a rich foreign owner but now the horse has bolted it doesn't really mean very much anymore. As has been stated previously the turkeys really...

Just been snowing very, very heavily here in Whalley Range although it's still that wet on the ground it wasn't sticking although it started hailing as well.
