    Which ex-city player do you dislike the most?

    It's quite telling that in his book Robert Hopkins is the only player Paul Lake criticises or said he didn't get on with.

    It’s Quiet 20 - What is the Wirtz that could happen?

    True, but we also won 3 games in a row at the start of this season without Rodri. It's a small sample size.

    It’s Quiet 20 - What is the Wirtz that could happen?

    I don’t really get what people think was realistically going to happen with our transfer business when it comes to cover for Rodri. It’s meaningless and glib to say City should have had players lined up on 1 January as the world doesn’t work like that. The club’s battling the 115 charges which...

    Citizens

    The Citizens is the club's nickname and always has been. CityZens is a marketing abomination invented by simpletons.

    Metrolink to / from Etihad

    It’s strange people saying Starmer’s not doing anything about re-regulating bus services when it’s a pretty central component of the Government’s transport policy and they are legislating to allow councils to do exactly that.

    Positive BBC thread

    The people who want rid of the BBC are more or less the same people who’ve been wrong about everything else for the last 15 years.

    F1 2024 season

    Before the safety car and red flag Max was stuck behind Leclerc and struggling to pass. On this occasion he benefitted from a free pitstop and track position and made the most of it, but it's far from his best performance let alone an all time great wet weather drive. Hamilton at Interlagos in...

    Best player from our doldrums years (1980 to roughly 2009)

    Objectively, it’s probably Anelka. Around 2003 someone wrote in City ‘till I Cry that he was the first world class player at around the peak of his career we’d had since Francis, which seems fair. Most of the names mentioned are all good shouts but I tend to think Garry Flitcroft gets...

    Am I the greatest Stone Roses fan on the forum?

    Just to offer a bit of balance I think they were fucking brilliant, even if they were a bit before my time.

    North Stand Construction Discussion

    I think a change in the law regarding the proportion of a stadium that had to be seated forced the club to install seats. It wasn’t the original plan for the North Stand.

    What was the most toxic period at City?

    Nicky Summerbee’s name has been mentioned a few times here and it’s true that he was a main target of abuse at a particularly toxic period in the club’s history, nevertheless I’m going to stick up for him a bit. It seemed pretty obvious that his confidence was very shaky and for large parts of...

    David Bernstein Interview & Book

    Theoretically Keegan might be right that City needed to invest to insure that we stayed clear of relegation but the problem is that Keegan proved that he was the wrong manager to make that investment. By the time he resigned the club was skint which was largely a result of his profligacy...

    What was the most toxic period at City?

    Blackburn away felt the worst. Everyone arrived with a decent amount of optimism and the City end was in great voice but the performance was abysmal. Looking back it was the final straw for people who'd invested so much in the club as it seemed that sun was setting on another false dawn. I don't...

    Jermaine Jenas sacked by the BBC

    All the BBC did in relation to Huw Edwards is follow contemporary HR policies and the law. However, that's still a smoking gun for people who are obsessed with 'woke ideology' whatever the fuck that is.

    Lucy Powell

    I can’t say for certain that Timpson is a blue but I can confirm that City key rings are the only football club key rings available in the Timpsons by St James’ Park Tube station.
