wonderful example on BBC website of this 'agenda' thing expressed perfectly on the Robbie Savage column. While expecting a balanced insight into the proposed tactics of both sides, instead, as usual we get the continued garbage of what Liverpool's frame of mind will be, how they will line up...

It could go to Liverpool on goal difference ....Rememeber, they are playing Newcastle United last game. Newcastle, without doubt, have been the biggest chumps in the whole football league over the last 60 years or so. I can see pool putting about 10 past them. We will have to be very...

Re: This weekends other Prem Games with Liverpool winning 1-2 away at west ham means those fools at utd have now conceded the title. First weekend of April! ha ha

Been studying wigans recent form on 'statto' website. They are looking very good, winning their last three away games in league and cup? thrashing the likes of Notts Forest away at the weekend is a good example. Uwe is doing a top job. Its one thing for Pellergrini to remind us of taking...

Joe has been superb since his absence, but you have to play your strongest team, so its Pants for me also. All day long.

Pants. Its not necessarily he's a better keeper or that he deserves it ( he is, and does I reckon on both counts) but from what I have seen, the defence plays much better with him in nets. The defence are much more assured of themselves. Pants also is a fabulous distributer of the ball and...

City 1 Coventry 3 Jan 82.... I remember 81-82 season and wishing so much to avenge the cup final defeat of 81. We had Francis, Tueart, Hutchinson all on song after going top of the league during new year. We blew it against Stoke in a drab 1-1 draw and the season went to pot after that. Back...

Past : 1) Kazi Deyna. 2) Trevor Francis. 3) Bobby MacDonald and finally, The guy who inspired me the most in those torn but brilliant Adidas world champions boots.. Jim Tolmie

Thought Pants had a superb game today. His dominance in the air was excellent. He seemed to be in the right position to catch everything. Ok, the goal conceded wasn't great but he was perfectly positioned to parry that rocket header from what..2 yards? Also, his distribution was first class...

Re: who do you want in the Semi? If we get to the final and have to play Utd, then this fixture will clash with the premiership return game at the swamp which is scheduled for the same weekend !!! This means that we will have to play Utd later in the season, suggesting that we could end up...

Ive seen a few posts recently where fellow blues think that if we should go out against Barcalona, then we should concentrate on the domestic cups. Thing is: The second leg agaist Barcalona is 12th March..By then the League cup is over and most importantly, the quarter finals of the FA Cup will...

Re: Watford mid 80`s I can confirm all three games. It wasn't Barnes who did the damage on that 3rd game, I remember. If i'm correct, it was Worrel Sterling coming on as a sub and smacking a brace. We were battered in about a 10 minute spell where Nigel Callaghan ran riot over us. Awful...

There have been some great shouts here. Heres a few crackers: Kaziu Deyna 79/80 Borrusia Munchengladbach)(L1-3) A screaming volley from a bout 6 yards. Utter genius Dennis Tueart 81/82 Villa (W1-0) great header after a quick free kick sending Kippax crazie. Jim Tolmie 83/83 v...

Kaz Deyna Bobby Macdonald But nothing came close to: Jim Tolmie Also, Michael Lake..not being offered a contract by Billy McNiel

Stephen Ireland. Voted player of the season in which he was ever present in 23 defeats including Notts Forest and Brighton. What a superman.

'The second Coming' starring Christopher Eccleston as the son of God. Obviously, he is a city fan who watches from the Kippax and performs several miracles at Maine road. It was a bit rubbish and only worth noting for the City link.

There were two TV films/plays by Arthur Smith which were excellent: 'An evening with Gary Lineker' was a good film set against Italia 1990 with a daft assortment of individuals on holiday in Ibiza watching the Germany V England game in the Hotel.. Paul Merton was in it and played an...

'Yesterdays Hero' was an excellent football film starring the evergreen Ian Mcshane as a washed out ex pro. He is ably supported by the beautiful Suzanne Sommers. The only downside is the poor footballing ability of the dreadful Paul Nicholas and the beebs luuvie Adam Faith. From what I...

Osbourne by far the best pub on match days, but alberrt and claermont ran close.

'Losing ones Soul' is a term loosley based at MCFC fans who discarded this popular genre of music in favour of motown, and R&B back in the late 90's during the Royal era.
