    The Beer Lovers' Thread.

    Oakham Ales Citra - first pint of this and very good to if you like IPA type ales - possibly better than Bishops Farewell....

    City's Hardest Eleven

    GOTTA be Blakey Apart from his on the pitch stuff does anyone else remember a game, probably mid-90's when Foxy was in charge, over the Christmas period I think and possibly Chester. It was a rainy day and the old Cowshed was still standing. Anyhoo, Noel was playing centre-half that day and...

    City pictures

    It's not a picture and I can't post it here but I have got City's Christmas Cracker on VHS. It is highlights of the start of the 93-94 season (Freddy Starr/Wrexham/SuperRon's goals, Fulham both games + more) and it has a personal welcome to the tape by Alan Ball (RIP) which if I can sort it out...

    Seaborne is a wan*er

    Totally agree Shamus, Lammie and others who have spoken up for Danny. He didn't cost us anything, played in 2 promotion winning teams (playing a vital role and scoring some game-winning goals) and seem to appreciate what we have given him in return. I think it is credit to us that Saints (ok I...

    Plusses from the Southampton game

    1. Barry Corr - played well yesterday I thought. There was one move early in the first half where he controlled a clearance, turned his man and then played a great ball round the corner for Stanno to run onto. I also thought his link up play was generally pretty good and could see some real...

    Dirty, dirty nasty niggly Dons

    If that's how they always play what a nasty team to watch. They totally took advantage of a weak referee today. I was very impressed with our strength today (mentally and physically) to come away from there with a point. If that's how Ince managed things when he went to Blackburn then no wonder...

    Brighton flailing arms

    Good point - yes I noticed that too. Especially Barry Corr having a good ole tussle with their number 6 (El Abd I think) - which from my (admittedly biased) point of view looked like he was trying to constantly provoke Corr.

    What to do with Fleetwood?

    Good point Pete, I noticed that as well - if he is the "fox in the box" and will keep his place because he scores goals rather than contributing more to the team as a whole then why not the effort to get in the box? I don't know Fleetwood as a person so maybe it is unfair to commentate on him...

    Your favourite City sendings off

    Surely only ONE contender for this accolade? Details are a bit sketchy now, it was Elm Park, Autumn 92 I think. Anyway, please step up, Peter Whiston, who was sent off for fighting Jimmy Quinn (who also walked if I remember rightly). Down to 10 men, City go on to record a 3-2 win with Sir Scott...

    What to do with Fleetwood?

    Hi Fred. I don't want to arge unneccesarily but I must take issue with your comment. We cannot afford to have one of our strikers that "gave up challenging and just waited for mistakes". Nobody but nobody gets anywhere without some graft - look at the greats (Shearer et al) down to people like...

    Midlands Grecians

    Hi. PM sent to the Doc. For everyone else I live in Edgbaston and will be travelling to some games next season home and away so would be up for car-sharing or whatever really.

    New Signing

    Here's what an Oxford-supporting colleage of mine from work haas told me. He gets to see most games and has a fair idea of what's what:- "He's actually a very good, if unspectacular, central midfielder. The sort who keeps the ball moving and likes to play the easy ball. He has got a very good...

    Best EVER opposition seen at SJP

    Wouldn't have remembered it offhand but I agree with the last bit - I always was a bit of a fan of BFJ and as you said he was absolute class - I think we still won the match though if I remember correctly?
