Random City Players

I was once at Twerton Park in Bath, for a City mid week, League Cup/ Milk Cup game against Bristol Rovers, with the wife, now ex., I think it was her last City game :0)

A very poor game, I think, it was nil nil at Full time, in Extra time, City introduced a sub who I never heard of play for us after this game, even though I think we won the game, 2 -1 in Extra time,with out penalties???

I could be wrong, they was a loud wining noise in my left ear !!!

Gary FLIPFLOP??

LOL

Even made the ex. smile :0)
 
An Isreali, Nir Bitton, played on trial for us and was going to sign during Mancini's reign but fell through due to work permit issues. We even spelled his name wrong on the shirt.

Talking of Mancini ..he signed a lad from Italy for us centre mid surname Pizzaro ? Only on loan I think

Very tidy neat Italian, didn't stay long and don't think he was too popular but I liked watching him play ,very stylish.

I was at that game, don't remember anything about the match at all!
Apart from Fitzroy Simpson played for us and he'd got tickets for two females in the crowd who'd he said hello to at start of the match..
No one had ever seen the two women before ,and mumbling about how they managed to get tickets in an 800 only away allocation.
The reason was obvious!

As most who were there will attest to, his introduction v Sunderland in 2012 swung the match and got us a late and crucial point in the title race.

So he would never have to pay for drinks in my local.
