Super story mate. Watches can carry a tonne of emotional memories. They are so personal and evoke so many memories. My Dad had an old Smyths 9ct gold ‘Railway Watch’ (they were presented to railwaymen at their retirement) that was his dad’s. Like you, he never wore it as he was scared to death...

Exactly. We can keep Raheem at a cost to us of around 65-70m for the next season (15m in wages and 50m in transfer fee) or sell him on as he will not be signing a new contract. It’s a no brainier for me. Sell him on for super money and watch Chelsea fans tearing their hair out as he scuffs...

A simply incredibly brilliant post. Cap. Doffed.

If we’ve given our word, we have to stand by that. But if we sell for less than 100-125m we’ve had our pants pulled down. If we were buying him FROM Barcelona he would cost upwards of 150-200m and these are the circles our club is mixing on now. Do not sell ourselves short here please City.

I want to know why they allowed Joel Glazer to put a statement on our own website extolling the virtues of membership of the Super League.

Doesn’t bear thinking about. We’ve had more important days since but given the perculiar set of circumstances at that time, seeing that ball hit the back of the net has to go down as one of my favourite City memories. I totally and completely lost my shit for about five minutes. Never...

I would genuinely love it if the club invited him back one day and presented him to us fans so we could show our appreciation. I don’t consider it an exaggeration to state that in my view he saved us as a going concern. As someone said earlier, no Joe, no keegan. No keegan, no etihad move. No...

It’s equal. They’re both honorary scousers.

I have always maintained that City should have steadfastly refused to play the game that night citing players being shaken up and suffering psychological after effects of a concerted, planned, and police-backed attack on our coach. It would have put the ball firmly in the authorities court and...

Amen brother. That said, keep your eye on it, it probably IS just City doing City things to you but take care anyway. You don’t want to shuffle off this mortal coil and miss us pissing the league next year not to mention the CL win. Keep safe Blue.

This forum needs A “love this post” button.

I make you right. We will never know for sure of course - unless he writes an autobiography after he retires - but I also firmly believe that the anti-City and anti-Pep rubbish that has taken over the media instinctively appeals to the rebel in him And gives him reason to continue. Before he...

This is where we find out how good our manager actually is. Still in our own hands. Bravery,courage, and tactical nous needed now more than ever. Overthinking, tactical weirdness and stubborn refusal to use substitutes not welcome right now. Be a leader. Be a manager. Be the genius everyone...

Feel sick, nauseous, been toilet three times and it’s just water now, clammy, heart beating like I’ve run a 100m, aching all over, it’s just horrible. But I wouldn’t swap this for the world. It’s what it’s all about.

Can’t speak for Kalkan, never been, but I’ve been to Olu Deniz/hisaronu/ovacik 7 times with the last time being just before covid and you could have a 2 course lunch, with plenty of beers for about £20 per couple. Cocktails in the bars at night were about 3 quid (albeit not the best quality...

Who would have thought that the descendants of this country’s last set of slave traders would have booed a black choir singing Abide With Me either? The same ancestors who openly supported and campaigned for the south in the American civil war.

Its also possibly because, even if you take away the points deduction, he got a Derby side that should have been good enough for automatic promotion into lower mid table. There has been honestly calls for him to be made manager of the year - for taking a side that should have got enough points...

Dont remember that one. Watching on my break. Now have to explain to my colleagues why I’m going back into work with tears streaming down my face.

Not sure if you’re being tongue in cheek or serious (I suspect serious) but I heartily concur. literally at that point, a lifetime - 42 years in my case by that day - of unremitting, relentless and remorseless piss taking ended in that moment. Thousands of texts to the effect of “how did City...

We’re winning 5-1, away from home, in a tough game, at a very pressurised point in the season. Nobody has been shite, poor, or awful tonight. proud of all of them
