Typical City days are back

[Don Karleone]

49 years, and I’ll hazard I’d kick your arse in a quiz about the club, including any questions around how to write the club’s name correctly.

Notably, I answered your question but you did not answer mine.

I asked this because no one has ever adequately explained what the expression means. Throwing meaningless sayings around, without even having the wherewithal to explain what they mean isn’t really very helpful.

So I ask again, what do you mean by ‘typical City’?

Well; I'm seriously considering going back to supporting Chelsea. The halcyon days of Dixon, Speedie, Droy, Rhodes-Brown, Rougvie, Monkou, Pates, Bumstead, Nevin, Canoville, Niedzwiecki; quality players one and all. I miss those days.

Them were the days James.

We all know the standards we were was never going to last what we have is a team hopefully competing to win the league most season and wining it 1/4 times plus competing trying to win all trophies! What we should not do is end up midtable make the mistakes all teams do in old div one premier league after dominating for a long time!

Until we turn the corner and the club will incentivise their 3rd party seller sites to get them to come back :)

Pep fastly becoming the reincarnation of Big Mal

More like Wenger in his final years at the Arse

But not surprising. It’s just fucking embarrassing by so called fans. Typical City? Fucking joker whoever started this.

I know full well what typical city means. What it doesn’t mean is winning counties trophies, including a treble only one club in this country has done before, but then going on a slump. Really does not mean that in any way, shape or form.

Actually what we're currently having to endure is much worse than the "typical City" days, at least back then it was a bit of a roller coaster of excitement with unpredictable performances and results.

This predictable, repeated dirge is rapidly approaching the Pierce era of dullness and lacklustre performances.

Today wasn’t ’Typical City’. It was just a poor, unfit performance from a team with a non-existent pre-season that’s, in many way, been thrown together in a short space of time.

Typical City is losing to Spurs in the CL in the manner we did when we had our greatest ever side and finished 25 points above them in the league, or to Lyon who finished midtable in France, or to Chelsea in the final when they finished 21 points behind us in the league, losing to a shite United team in the FA Cup final and against Palace n’all…

Typical City is also looking like we were going through the motions and not going to win anything at all, then having 130 charges thrown at us to galvanise us on to win the treble…

Typical City can’t be ‘back’, because it never left us.

In your opinion...as your entitled to..as I am..does not mean I am a "so called"fan..and a joker...

 

[GaudinoMotors]

Come on the plan was always to allow an elite team to age, don't replace them with similar standard players, don't address glaring deficiencies, let other clubs purchase better players.....All safe in the knowledge we'd already won things.
Ingrates!!

I think milners goal had shades of the old 'typical city'. However, to fully meet the criteria he would have had to be shit when he played for us and popped up with the winner for his new club against us which isn't quite the case.
Kit Symons a prime example with his winner against us at Fulham, although to be fair he put quite a few past city's keepers when he was a blue :-(

They never went away for every success on the pitch there was a trypical city moment off it to counter balance.

Our club was never for the faint hearted.

Might get some away tickets now

I see Langley is abusing posters in several threads. Hopefully the mods do their job
