I would estimate the max points are around 28000 +
I’ve got over 25000 and was offered superbia for the first two seasons before they realised it was a shit idea and the 20 or so that joined are prob still on it now minus 2 or 3
It was on offer to the top 1000 highest point holders (I believe) my invite no was around no.640 so if you were offered it prob gives you an indication where you are in the pecking order. I’ve prob missed about 15-20 in the last 10 years since the sup/plat/gold era
An average of around 2 per season usually due to being on holiday. It’s very rare I just can’t be arse as it becomes a bit of an addiction doing places like Swansea on a Wed night and lost count of the number of Sunderland trips on a Tuesday or Wednesday I’m self employed so I decide when I work
My lad is 17 who I have taken home and away including being high jacked from school on several weekday afternoons with varied excuses has 19500 he’s had a season ticket since he was three (he claims he was there when we were shit) and I started him taking everywhere when he was about 10. Used to save us all a few quid with the railcard too. Now it will cost me !!! Funding his Porto trip
Anyway that’s my story

Was you in IBIZA back in the early 80s when Trevor Francis was sold just before the season started.

I have just checked online and my points aren’t showing for the trip to Brunton Park to watch Tony Cunningham miss from 5 yards out in 1984. That game alone should have been worth 28,000 points.

Nope but I was there in the late 80s when bought Clive Allen!!!
And the year after actually when David Platt scored against Belgium

The 0-1 loss at home to Bury on valentine's day 1998 when the fan ran into the pitch and ripped his season ticket up should have been worth at least 30,000 points. I think it has been voted the worst game in City's history and as I was there I can't disagree with that opinion.

Ahh Tony Cunningham. A man that never broke sweat.turned slower than a supertanker and could be outpaced by an arthritic snail.

No I met a lad and his girl friend from Macclesfield, I know he still goes as I think he was called Steve, he will possibly be older than you, late 50s.

For some reason he always escapes a mention in all time worst City XIs. Absolutely fucking hopeless, one of the worst I’ve ever seen in the shirt. A fixture in Newcastle’s worst ever number 9s lists.
He was a big pal of Mick McCarthy from their Barnsley days, apparently Big Mick lobbied extensively for his signing

Got an idea it could be one of two people
One lad posts on here ShanghaiCityfish he’s coming to Porto
The other also posts on here as Bosleyblue occasionally (he’s my brother)

Do you remember Ken Mcnaught got him on loan

A traffic cone in a shirt would have been more use
