One of those strange footie trivia facts... 2005/06 Reading promoted to prem 2006/07 Sunderland promoted to prem 2007/08 CITY promoted to prem Connection......All lost to Plymouth on the opening day of the season, at home.
Many of us old timers are still living in the 50’s when you could get 4 Dominos for 6 pence and a pint for 1 shilling and 6 pence so we still think that 7 quid is a lot to watch a City game.
What does the highlighted bit mean? It can't be pizza in the 50s and I can't see why you'd want only 4 dominos?!?!
That is always going to be a problem for City. People want to see success but are not prepared to pay as much for it as supporters of a lot of other clubs.
Cool but... What's does it mean if you play out a frustrating 1-1 draw with them after 8 games? Hopefully you're gonna come back and say that it means some sort of bona fide triangulation with humping Honved in the Europa League in three years time.
As said one of those strange triv facts. BTW... Do Honved still exist? I haven't seen them mentioned in the CL, Europa League or that other mikey mouse cup thing in decades.
Still on the go. They supplied Puskas and a fair few of the great Mighty Magyars team that demolished England twice and changed the way we played. Only have a small 8,000 stadium now so will not be able to compete with the bigger Hungarian teams. I think the reason they were so successful under the Communist regime was they were the Army team and got first choice on players,
Who thinks it's going to be easy ? We've been pretty solid but struggled to score at home (Apart from the game against Massive FC who are losing to everybody)
I think they were the Hungarian army team, so may explain why they're not a top flight outfit any more.
Seri in the HDM this morning saying we need to be calm and ignore the fans telling us to get it forward. Worth bearing in mind...
I could understand it if we were losing in the 80th minute as even the best possession teams in the world switch it up and go more direct if they desperately need a goal but there’s really no point in getting on players’ backs when we’re trying to play out and beat the opposition’s press patiently. I hear a few moans when we build from the back in the first 10 minutes sometimes!
Yeah, this happens to me too on my watch even though I've disabled City notifications on everything. Hard to lose the habit.
Plymouth has been described as “a concrete toilet and a dump” City (of Culture) 3-0 ****hole (in need of culture)
They put 6 passed Norwich (who many people on here were impressed by after the opening game). Plymouth aren’t pushovers. They’re not here to be the whipping boys of the division like Sheff Wednesday.
