New style ? poch tried that shit and failed miserably when he was at spud.

To be fair there has been quite a few Spuds managerial failures , they employ decent managers with good reputations , but it all ends up a bit Spursy

How you young people go on about age.
Guess my age. Give you a clue - I got Frank Swift’s autograph outside Maine Rd. I watched the 55 and 56 cup finals. I watched City hammer the rags 5-0 at Old Trafford in 54/55. I was at Rotherham. I still go to every City home game and reside in the east stand- row k. Paid 1shilling and 3d to get in the Platt Lane Stand. CTID

Wow

There's another thread that would love to have your post.

Oldest poster on Bluemoon - stories from the past

Who is the oldest poster on bluemoon? I'm sure many on here would love to hear some stories about supporting City from the past from some of our older blues! Cheers

Doesn't matter who Totspur have unavailable. We've played a weakened Palace, N'Castle, Everton and Spurs and haven't looked convincing (defensively).

We just need to give each team the respect they deserve, every team plays the same way against us, low-block + long ball & counter, press the CBs high and try to rattle Rodri, we should be used to this by now.

The way to beat the Spuds never changes, stay organised defensively (especially centrally, hopefully Stones returns) composed build-up play and wait for them to self-destruct. Don't get involved in an end-to-end basketball match, that's what these choas merchants thrive on.
