Best city game at CCS for a decade or so

Yes and that includes our 2 promotion seasons. Totally different vibe to this team.

Well done steve Morison!

Even without creating much, that was A LOT OF FUN to watch!

Perhaps now they might auction off those towels?

That would be a great idea or maybe donate them to Sheffield Wednesday.

Really entertaining stuff today and it gives hope that we've got a useful platform to build upon. Huge credit and thanks to Steve Morisson for an enjoyable 97 minutes.

To be fair, I think as long as City weren’t thrashed they were going to get good reviews today, but despite an almost complete lack of goalmouth action, there was a lot to enjoy today. Collins (best player on the pitch for me) and Wintle were superb I thought and Romeo, Kipre and Allsop were impressive out of the new signings. My first instinct was to say that shot for the goal got a deflection, but I’m not sure it did now - a great finish if it didn’t.

Dean Smith said in his post-match interview, "I've known Romaine a long time and that was a pass not a shot."

Went on to say how the better team lost.

That's a bit of a shit thing to say.

I think Dean Smith is a good manager, but he’s talking out of his backside if he really thinks that was a pass by Sawyers.

What i think that he's saying is that sawyers isn't capable of scoring a goal like that. It's really disparaging.

Re: Best city game at CCS for a decade or so

Hell of a game. We were all anticipating a better style of football - which was never going to be easy against a PL squad of players, but I have to say our defensive stuff was pretty impressive as well.

Re: Best city game at CCS for a decade or so

Very interesting watch!

Some of the pressing and movement was excellent. Both full backs were quality and some excellent wing play. The obviously lack of cutting edge plain to see, but keep on playing like that and I’m sure we’ll find a way. But If we get in 2 strikers we could really be onto something this season

Kind of reminds me of the first marky season when we went 1-0 up against West Ham on first game of the season

Re: Best city game at CCS for a decade or so

That felt like a game in a late promotion charge. Great atmosphere and seeing the players fight for each other was beautiful to see.
