City Bogey Team(s)

[jimharri]

Don't know if my memory is playing tricks, but I seem to remember Ipswich being hard for us to beat in the mid-late seventies.

 

[Inter Me Nan]

For a time it felt like fucking everyone!

I went 2 games against Bury in the same season and didn't see us win.
Bogey bastards

Just give Wigan the trophy.

 

[Dial M 4 Mercer]

Just give Wigan the trophy.

We usually do.

Our record against Boro between 2002 and 2008 absolutely stank.

Lost 1-3 and drew 0-0 in 02/03
Lost 0-1 (famous Sun Jihai own goal game) and lost 1-2 in 03/04
Lost 2-3 and drew 1-1 in 04/05
Drew 0-0 and lost 0-1 in 05/06
Won 1-0 and won 2-0 in 06/07
Won 3-1 and lost 1-8 in 07/08.

P12 W3 D3 L6. Awful.

Also throw in Blackburn and Spurs. Boro, Blackburn, and Spurs - three teams who were always just that bit better than us until Shinawatra (and then the Sheikh) took over.

Never liked playing Ipswich away. I don't remember many City wins at Portman Road over past 40 years. Except for the tonking in the FA Cup....Berkovic's finest hour.

Edit - last 12 league fixtures at Portman Rd going back to 1981
P12 W1 D2 L9
(I think)

And it's basically the same for the 10 before that. About 2 and 4 draws wins in 20 odd games going back to the 60s.

Wigan defo. 3 defeats in the FA Cup since the takeover when we were expected to win all 3.
