Which players do city owe a debt to?

[The Pink Panther]

If Dickov had been any good at his job, we wouldn't have been in the play offs, but promoted automatically, or even not relegated in the first place

A debt is owed to the players from our late 60's early 70's glory years. The players, in comparison to todays footballers, weren't paid alot and were not properly looked after either physically or mentally

 

[Galski]

Barton... hate to say it but he pulled us out the shit some games when we were flirting at the wrong end of the table!! i wouldn't go as far saying city owe him but he should always have a warm reception from us!! Him and Dunney saved us many a time!!

 

[Parksidecity]

Joe royle - not a player but took us up


gillingham and blackburn , doesnt get much better than that

 

[Gray]

Mulhearn, Book, Pardoe, Doyle, Heslop, Oakes, Lee, Bell, Summerbee, Young, Coleman plus Connor and Horne - for giving me the best ever season of supporting City.

I went to every league match home and away, and I can only hope that the rest of you get to experience a season like that in the not too distant future.

I agree with this!


I'd also like to see Colin Hendry back...and Vonky!

peter reid..... for having us above that lot in 1990/91 season

 

[the goats backside]

Kevin Horlock for me, - A genuinely consistent performer, all season, when we were really in the mire, trudging around the 3rd division (Cica 97/98)

The major part that his that first goal, against Gillingham, at Wembley,played, in leading to where we are now, should never be underestimated.

Another vote for Super Kev, a top pro and one of the sweetest left pegs in football.

I still laugh now looking back on that day he was sent off for......... aggressive walking
Super Kev

goater (should get him more involved like we did with Paul Lake)
dunne
barton (I dont care what people say, he gave 100% for the club and always played well for us)
sweeps

soon, tevez (despite everything, hes helped greatly in making the club what it is today).

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

Dave Ewing, and as that would now be impossible, I would plump for Bill Leivers.

Hendry was another one though who left for the money. That will always leave a sour taste
