Bit of a myth about that first one - it was actually a bank holiday Monday (Jan 3rd 1994). The Saturday before - NYD - was the 2-0 defeat at Newcastle.First one was a League game.and a Saturday. 2nd one was a League Cup game and midweek

How bad must Ipswich have been if we went 2-0 up with that line up

Vintage violence before during and after Cardiff matchI remember being on the forecourt at Ninian Park when it was announced Swales had agreed to sell. The fans were on a high, but it was typical City on the pitch as we lost in the cup against a lower division team.
Keith Curle missed penalty
Nathan Blake scoring right in front of away terrace..and I'd vomited in the Rugby Club bogs after throwing too much Strongbow down me neck pre match..I'd started early in Newport..crazy day.

Players without a pulse would have been better than the ones we had four seasons later.We were rumoured to be after every player who had a pulse back in those days.

Last week met a lovely bloke in Congleton who used to be second in command in a certain bank in Manchester. His primarily role was the City account. He used to deal with Swales and said what an unscrupulous guy he was. You all know the stories. They are true. He mentioned that on a Monday after a match the security vans would bring all the cash from the ground and it was a nightmare counting it all that day. Also mentioned he looked after various players accounts and how dim they were. A certain player had a massive gambling problem and became skint and I can not say who as still alive.
As an aside he became great friends with John Ryan who was involved with Maidstone United. I was one of the Docs at the Club.

And this is where we ended up. This is actually hilarious and a proper "moment in time" for us blues.
Call yourself a manager you little tosspot
Your voice hasn’t broke and your balls haven’t dropped
You won the World Cup in your stupid white boots
Now you turn up for work in flat caps and shell suits
