Also, it was a very different game then, with the unsavoury actions of players like Tommy Smith and Norman Hunter openly applauded.

Totally disgusting and on a par with Buchan and Colin the King.

Thanks Doc.

What struck me most about George Best was how frit he was of Doyley - he used to bottle it at Maine Road whenever I saw him. Apart from once and, ironically, it was at Glyn's testimonial game and he was playing for the City XI in sky blue.

Malcolm Allison showing more class in ten minutes than Wenger and/or Mourinho would do in a career.


Thanks for that, NB.

Cheers mate, on Your valuable recollection. much appreciated.
that pretty much more accorded to the idea of Bestie I had.

But when MC speaks, even when litle off the edge of his true sentiments towards the rags, ;) I've learnt to listen carefully and stand tutored.

1. "unintelligible language"
2. "ACID QUEEN"
3. "never once fails to turn a football thread into a himseelf thread"
4. "thumbs stalker often resulting in repetitive thumb strain"
5. ignore the cunt. he's on permantent wum mission. only TIDs may know City

You'd need to make a very good psychiatrist in order to guess what next in a eight yrs long line of hatred...

now you're just causing edits to appear on my posts by coming up with random lists S4e - poor form.
All of them are wrong as you surely know already.

guilty as charged on poor form. already sat on the bench!
but wasnt the trivia about
Can you name the top Manchester City scorers in the Premier League?
31 names - everybody who's scored over 10 since the PL began

or You mean by exact goals ranking? that'd be too much for a non stats geezer like me.
