Baba Yaga Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 Just now, BCFC1959 said: Yes - Leeds 1974 - unbeaten in 29 league games! That was the only one that came to my mind initially, seen that they were unbeaten in the league but had lost a couple in the cups. If it was based on how impressive the win was at the time I guess that would be top of the list.

Supersonic Robin Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 34 minutes ago, David Brent said: Rather annoying that sky sports coverage means there will be no Robins TV for this fixture Feels like with Sky, the weird 'international coverage', and the cup games, I've barely been able to watch City on Robins TV recently. You'd think they'd find a way to give Robins TV subscribers automatic access when games are covered on Sky - simply removing the game from Robins TV seems harsh for those that have paid for the service. It's the equivalent of revoking a season ticket holder's ticket for games that are on Sky. I'm fortunate enough to be able to find other ways to access live streams of the games, but I'm sure there are others who aren't. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naismith and Atkinson but also Acey (was injured for a while I think) and Leeson after recall. No Sykes presumably means he's either involved tonight or isn't quite ready for anything yet. Think Manning said he was "very close" in the press conference so I guess there's a chance he's on the bench tonight?

95red Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 7 hours ago, redkev said: Same amount as me roughly but I would honestly say apart from the cotterill era , bit of Gary Johnson and some Danny wilson this is probably the highest standard consistently we have played at , if you remember we have had some pretty dark days , it’s not great at the moment but I do see a glimmer of light at the end of the tunnel , 7-1 away to Northampton , 6-1 at home to wolves 5-0 away to Blackpool losing 1-0 at home to palace who were on a 19 game without a win run being totally dominated for a period by the gas oh and yes the cherry on the cake the pulis era , so perhaps things at all bad at the moment . Yes your right highest standard consistently definitely just don't feel the same ,probably getting old but some of my best memories/ moments were 80s 90s when things we against us ,the atmosphere, banter, away days ( what's a designated pub :laugh:).We got great set up now agreed but those old days were special. City through & through will always go just sometimes the 90mins bit in the middle of my Saturday is a let down . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
