Ex-City Players You Have Rose-Tinted Glasses For

[crossie]

David Oldfield

Yes me too, but why?!?

 

[Mifred]

Clive Wilson

 

[Tarzan Pancake]

Clive Wilson

I was gutted when we sold him to Chelsea.

 

[Gareth Barry Conlon]

Danny Tiatto. Loved a tackle.

Sun Jihai. Another grafter. On the negative side we once played a morning kick off game against Everton to make it a better viewer time in China. If my memory is correct.

 

[daveyboybluemoon]

David James.

For someone who was nicknamed Calamity James, I thought he was quite a solid keeper for us.

Saved 2 pens in that 03-04 season run in, Leicester away and Wolves at homes in draws against 2 team that ultimately went down which although we stayed up by 8 points could have made things a lot more nervy

Remember being at that Leicester game where Izzet basically threw the ball into the box and fell over to get the pen and thinking we were down if that had gone in.

11 in the morning wasn’t it? Always wondered why we kicked off so early!

Craig Bellamy. Didn't want him, didn't like him, watched him play, read a bit about him. Have nothing but respect for the guy.

Just read that Li Tie (Everton's Chinese player who contributed to that kick-off time) got sent down for a 20 stretch in December for bribery.

Came here to say the same, if he played against your team, you hated him. As soon as he joined us thought it was the opposite, he gave everything when he played. And he slapped that rag at the swamp on derby day.

 

[i went to rotherham]

Ray Ranson - would fit in todays team a treat, IMHP

 

[colesy]

N'Golo Kante, I really don't remember him doing much for us on the pitch though.

 

[Dr Jacoby]

Andy Cole

 

[Mifred]

Kenny Clements

 

[geoff hammond]

I thought Ian Scott would be a star

Fucking hell

 

[Barrowby Blue]

Tony Grealish. Just for his debut against the rags. A 1-1 draw in the mid eighties. That was a result in those times...

 

[plattlanebenches]

Gerry Gow. Fucking loved him.

 

[NLW Blue]

Paul Simpson, his celebration in front of me in the Main Stand at Maine Road in 1985 after scoring against Charlton in the 5-1 to seal promotion is etched in my memory.

 

[jamesha]

Nigel Gleghorn - big daft Geordie who scored quite a few for us but mostly in away games. Had a couple of decent cameos between the sticks too.
