    Fixtures Calendar - 2026/27

    The home game on the 2nd Jan will move to the Sunday, just like last season, day before most go back to work. If a team is at home on Boxing Day they should be away on the 30th December, can’t remember the last time we had a Boxing Day game.

    Fixtures Calendar - 2026/27

    It’s not completely computer generated, there’s a lot of algorithms in there to randomly ensure the red shirt cartel get favourable fixtures. Giving all teams two home and two away midweek fixtures wasn’t difficult but for some reason us and Everton got three and one. A lot better for...

    Fixtures Calendar - 2026/27

    I think the less midweek games the better but a balance of two home and two away is equitable, last season is was one away and three home. It’s obviously the Rags get the concession, more fans travel from all over the UK and abroad for the weekend games. For those working there’s always more...

    Yaya the manager?

    He played by far more games for us than any other club, 230 appearances, a goal every 3.7 games, next best was Barca, 74 games, just 4 goals but he did play as an orthodox DM at Barca. However if you believe Yaya he made us a legendary team when in fact he developed his career at City after a...

    Fixtures Calendar - 2026/27

    Nothing to do with playing every team twice but we never get a home game first (always comments we request that) but we always get the shit end of the stick at Christmas, our “home” game over the festive period was the Chavs on the Sunday before a lot of people went back to work the following...

    Media discussion - 2025/26

    I can’t support England, and haven’t done so for many years, it stems from me not wanting to support players from the Rags, Chavs, Tarquins and Dippers, doesn’t feel right, I’ll just watch. I think for a lot of other fans supporting England is a cheap shag, a one night stand whilst the other...

    He was, and still is, a tosser of the highest order, he’s got the family he deserves, they should change their name to the “Beckham-Tossers”, can’t stand the bloke.

    PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

    If you’d have put “anything” that would be correct but by using nothing” your wording was inconsistent, anyway, I was only being pedantic.

    PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

    That’s a double negative vis-à-vis, if “you’ve not learnt nothing” you’ve actually “learnt” (learned) something.

    I saw them at the Bingley Hall in Birmingham with Fun Boy Three as support in Summer 1982. It wax stifling hot and I had to drive 5 pissed up mates back to Manchester afterwards, one of who had the sit in the boot bit of my estate car.

    Best Debut Single

    Year before I sold the wife’s car to furnish our house, kept the vinyl but they disappeared during a subsequent house move. Had some picture discs (mostly punk) and some iconic albums.

    PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

    You’ll find nowt in Trafford but try the Cayman Isles, there’ll be plenty there but finding someone from the PL with the appetite and the will to investigate would be very difficult, nigh on impossible.

    Last Film You Saw

    Probably been mentioned on here but Truth and Reason on Amazon is a very good film based on the true life of a 16/17 year old brave German boy, well worth a watch and made me feel the inadequacies of my teenage life.

    Great recollections and good to hear your story. Been best friends with my blue pal nearly 56 years now, met at school as 11 year olds, he’s married to another of our class mates! He’s had prostate cancer since 2015 and on the 18th March suffered multiple strokes which has been devastating. We...

    Fixtures Calendar - 2026/27

    Getting rid of his badge ruined his jeans! We were on a Maynes bus I think it was, picked up outside a toffee shop in Ashton, we went to the home games from there as well, think it was around two bob or 10p in new fangled money. I bump into my mate now and again usually on a golf day, he goes...

    Fixtures Calendar - 2026/27

    You’re so right, I was with my mate and he had a City badge sewn onto his jeans, that’s how we were bubbled, he actually went in the toilets in the ground and managed to unstitch the badge plus we left with about 15 minutes to go, it was a scary experience. Yes I’m 67 now and like you I’ve...
