Quite a lot did -a mate of mine who Travelled up from Cambridge packed it in that season after 30 years -due to circumstances etc he only saw one Goal all Season.

My mate had been going from the 70's.

My first time at the Etihad was November 2006. I came all the way over from Boston to see one of the absolute worst games of football I have ever seen live or on TV. A turgid 0-0 with Blackburn. The highlight of the day was Pearce throwing the ball at a Blackburn player to get the game restarted. I kid you not. City didn't have a shot on target. It was awful stuff.

I had a bloody great evening in the fleshpots of Manchester though along with some good folks from the old TalkinCity board - of which there are a few on here...;)

The players conspired not to score goals as they wanted him gone.

We went 3 or 4 games in the Pearce era without a shot on target IIRC -and I’m not joking

That game was the angriest I have ever seen our fans

That was the most disillusioned I’ve ever been as a blue. I’ve lived through far worse moments but I’ve never been as angry as this.

I was one of the lucky ones.I was banned for most of his tenure. But the football was the worst ever. It was very telling that our season review for 2006-07 season was called.. A 101 great throw ins.

Did he not take over and get us into Europe though? I remember us winning at Villa and celebrating this - or have i dreamt it?

Anyway Stuart “Waskly Wabbit” Pearce and Gareth “Hose Nose” Southgate are 2 cheeks of the same arse when it comes to football coaching/managers. Shite

Edit : it was Sven through Fair Play League the season after

I’d ask David James
