In the 70s, great team. Toshack sold to Liverpool approx 100k Warboys in. Crunch game!
Sheffield Utd. Lost 5-1. I cried. Hopefully hoorah this time. Another crunch game as are they all?
we will lose
Billy Sharp is on 249 league goals. He hasn’t scored in a Championship game since mid-December. Ominous.
On the flip side I find it odd that you went to a place but can't remember who it was with, if you were behind the goal or not etc.
What bits do you actually remember? Just the name of the place and nothing outside of that? Maybe others remember like that but usually my memories are just that. Actual things that happened. Some more than others but details, as fuzzy as they might be. I wouldn't look at say Sheffield United this Saturday and think Sheffield, I've been there, with literally no background information. That seems peculiar to me.
I went with my dad to Wrexham, as all away trips back in the day, I was just thinking about the wider picture who was on the coach etc I'd have no clue.
As for the play off game, family, but again, there was a whole day out and I can't remember where we went pre game and who we were with.
If I was going to Sheffield for example, I'd know I'd been there and where the ground was, what pubs to go to, it's the same as going back to Ibiza and knowing where to go on the piss..
I just can't see how someone can remember 50 years ago like it was this morning
I’m willing to bet for a lot of us alcohol has something to do with the fact that we can remember details from our childhood more vividly than those in our 20’s and 30’s.
Memory is a funny thing though, there have been plenty of studies that show it’s nowhere near as reliable as we think it is, even for events we would swear we remember photographically. I have some very vivid memories of 9/11 that don’t line up at all with the fact I was in the UK and the time zone and time of day it happened, probably living most of the 20 years following in the US and hearing Americans talk about it have warped things somewhere upstairs.
And if that doesn’t get us even more off topic, I don’t know what will…
Eyebrow-raising to learn QPR, rather than Reading, are fave's to drop with Wigan and Blackpool.
Championship relegation odds 2022-2023: https://www.oddschecker.com/football...h/championship
1-100 Wigan Athletic.
1-50 Blackpool.
5-4 Queens Park Rangers
7-4 Reading.
11-4 Huddersfield Town.
4-1 Cardiff City.
11-1 Rotherham United.
That is seriously weird.
I can remember loads of details from the QPR play off final (who I went with, where we sat, where we met beforehand, my boys when we scored, what we did afterwards) and I even went to Wrexham in 1993 with my Dad and can recall actual things at that he said to me, as well as the fact that we won comfortably (and I can honestly say that I never say that).
My wife tells me that I have a terrible memory but if you can’t remember this sort of stuff, then why bother?!
I remember what I wasn't to remember.
Not really sure of the point of remembering things 57 years ago like the weather in Colchester on a Tuesday night and what lagerni drank on the bus with Jimmy, Jon and Barry. Some bald striker missed 2 gift wrapped opportunities and we lost 1 nil.
Aye, f*ck that FA Cup win in 1927, I bet fans who were there reminisced for the rest of their lives. That Liverpool League Cup Final even the Pompey FA Cup Final or more pertinent that quarter final at the Riverside. I love my memories.
The team/formation always a bit of a lottery with this manager. Can I plead with him not to pick Ojo.
Allsopp
Romeo
Ng
McGuinness
Cedric
ODowda
Ralls
Sawyers
Wintle
Kaba
Philogene
5/3/2
Expect a loss. A draw would be a big bonus. Sheff form is solid rather than spectacular.
2-0 Sheffield 😥
The only question mark I had was whether to play Philogene at RWB, which I suspect the manager may do. My problem then is, who is no10? Absolutely not Ojo and dont think 2 big men up top will work, at the start anyway.
I admire your optimism. I am a born pessimist when it comes to City.
I know you are not knocking. When events have a big impact on you, and that game did on this 20 yr old fan, it's strange that you do remember them. Similarly I can remember things about the King Crimson concert at The Capitol Theatre in Cardiff on Oct 29th 1971. It had an impact on me.

Id go Alnwick Ng MacGuiness Kipre O Dowda Wintle Ralls Rino Philogene Kaba Davies.
If Colwill was fit id have him instead of Rino.
If any players are reading this can I politely ask them not to concede stupid feckng free kicks on the edge of the box. We know there can only be 1 result as Alsopp not capable of saving.
