No, we are not, I was just pointing out what will lose Dave as years will pass by. His skills and passing will remain the same, like it did with Iniesta, Xavi, Pirlo, etc.

I did not see Clough play for us, just highlights, I am just curious if it was really necesary for us to buy him when we did.
I just checked, we got him in 96, so he was 30 at that time.


He was Brian Clough's son.

That does not mean that automatically he can be considered a good footballer . Sunday League at best

There were no highlights

He was all we could get. Then we found out why


Wasn't it around the same time we were offered Figo for about £2 million and said no?


No that was Fido.
And we already had s mascot.

Just what the doctor ordered. Goals galore, no injuries and more match fitness for Silva and KDB. Clean sheet to boot as well.

Wembley, Wembley, we're the famous Man City and we're off to Wembley

Let's be in no doubt here, no way would the dippers have destroyed a side like that, and if were honest we only gave it 80% effort at best.

Best team in England by an absolute mile.

The last time a team got to Wembley this easy was when England played in Euro 96.

Here we go, fucking media at it again talking about empty seats than the performance. Semi final; Two leg league cup? How many games we played over a week or so? What was the attendance in the last two games? Other fans chipping in too, these tossers would be lucky to make a semi nevermind a hard-on (final) in a season or even in their miserable life time. We are fighting on all fronts, fans can't afford to pay for 3 games over a short space of time.
Fuck you two faced hypocrite media, fuck you rag dipping cunts. "Niiiiiighhhn"...... in ya face suckers

Should take some of the pressure of the lads for the return game at their place

Our EDS team beat Rochdale from the same division yesterday, so in that light today's result wasn't a shock...

Pep goes to each Burton player and shakes their hand. Spends time with the goalkeeper. Class.
