black mamba said:Can't say it really bothered me .... City have let me down too often in all my years of watchin' them to single one night out as bein' worse than a few others ..... and to be honest i half expected it anyway!
It was hardly much better after we'd lost that night league game there 5-0 some years earlier , i think it was mid nineties.
The rags themselves would probably say the same of life after two or three defeats at City ..... especially the final derby at Maine Road when they lost 3-1 , the 5-1 1989 rout , and the 4-1 at COMS .... albeit none of them were actually night games.
The main difference being that a percentage of rags just can't take defeat , and have to start attackin' all and sundry in the aftermath ....... whereas City fans , in the main , debate it , it write it off , and just move on to the next game.
It was hard to take.Pigeonho said:Bloody hello Bob, that's one of your worst nights watching City?!MCFC BOB said:Losing out on the Champions League in May 2010, knowing there was nothing I could do.
went to the Chelsea game on one of the Mayneline coaches,the organisation wasn't very good,infact it was non-existant,got in the ground at half time,think we were 3-0 down,got home about 4 in the morning after being held in Victoria tube for about an hour,still can't think what possessed me to travel on that but i suppose you do daft things when your a kidchelseaaway84 said:chelsea away 1984 milk cup lost 4-1, we were shite, hardly any blues there and they had 100s out waiting for us before and after the game, it was very dodgy to say the least
81 cup final replay gutted after with a long journey home
95 crystal palace away league cup quarter final 0-4, typical this is our year, good drink before then disaster, really long journey home and woke up to being driven down some country lanes by the coach driver, i asked him where we were and he said hed lost the M6 !!! you can imagine my reply
0-5 at the swamp, drove down on my own, two minutes into the second half they scored for 0-3 so i left, hate watching them scum celebrate, as i got in at home turned the tv on and they scored again !!! for 0-5 i couldnt believe it
weve had some good nights though and i really hope alot more to come
COME ON CITY
