Yeah I'm going! Not looking forward to it so much now.
I am actually starting to look forward to it myself now. A trip away to a new ground and zero expectations from the team. Whatever happens i will not be coming away dispointed.

Promotion or copper's gloves? I'd still prefer promotion soz.
Best result as far as I'm concerned. Lost but in a way that won't hurt anyone's pride or confidence.
Now the lads can concentrate on winning the league and the FA Cup.

But if we'd got promoted i'd have had to have given them back when we played them again.

Last night was a MASSIVE improvement on recent games, the boys done good. We had a lot of possession and whilst a few passes went astray, not as many as against QPR. There seemed to be more spark in the team and they were putting more effort in. Even Boothroyd pulled his finger out, but i think he was still not giving it 100%.
However, whilst we worked hard, Villa hardly broke a sweat, they did not really need to, they always looked like they could go up another gear if they wanted to. It is easy to see while they are still in the Premiership and Newcastle are are in the Championship.
West Midlands Police were only mildly annoying.
Stadium nice, but there did not seem to be many exits (would not like to have to get out of there in a hurry) and the bogs must be the smallest bogs i have ever seen at a stadium, i have been in pub bogs that could accommodate more 'customers'.
e2a ... oh yeah, and we outsung the home crowd all game long ..... "one nil, and you still wont sing!" ... great to see such support, none of the booing nonsense we had at QPR
All in all, a great day out, team can be proud of themselves, and we can get back to proper football now.

I'll break the silence shall I?
Yes, we had two goals disallowed.
There's no moaning here tho.
We have an awful, truly awful defender in Hudson. Ledley is increasingly clueless. Bothroyd likes arse on grass interaction.
But on the tiny bright side of life, McNaughton and McCormack will return. It ain't all doom and gloom.
Apart from that we need a new central midfield, a central defender and a Sam Vokes type.
If we don't sign any loan players we are fucking doomed this year.

Pretty fair assessment. Unfortunately Jones doesn't see the midfield problem 
thinks it's the fault of our strikers that we aren't doing well in front of goal.
Hopefully the curse of having a prem opponant is over. The curse where we are shit the matches before and after. Unfortunately not much rest time till the next match so we might have one more shit match to go before we see an improvement, I'm sorry to say.

There are a few fans on the 606 board calling for Dave Jones to go. Personally I think he should have gone late last season. We are heading for mid table mediocrity unless something changes.
Yes it is a bit knee jerk for wanting a change of managers but thi may happen unless we get some wins.

Funnier than he thinks he is.
OK so you want DJ to go, fair enough, but tell me this. Where on these islands, or this planet, will we find a man who could do half as well as DJ has done with the money DJ has had at his disposal. Just one name will do, but I dont think there is one.

The problem is, most of the supporters we have now have never seen City in any division other than the one we are in. They haven't seen us when we were crap trudging to Port Vale on a wet wednesday in November or freezing their nuts off at Torquay in January. They dont know what its like to watch city when the crowd changes were announced to the team there were that few people in the ground.

Dave Jones has worked miracles with the financial resources available to him. I just wish he didn't have this selective blindness when it comes to central midfield. Never have i heard him say its a priority. With him its always the defence or strikers that are to blame for our results when the best striker in the world isn't going to do shit if you have a weak midfield. Weak midfield also puts too much pressure on defences.
He finds bargains everywhere else on park. Why can't he find a bargain buys better than McPhail and Rae. They must be out there. Why does he over-rate Ledley to the point where we don't sell him?

HA Ha!.... those 777 shirts will now be collectors items! (shame they were so shit)
there be tittle tattle on the beeb that we might get banned from Jackland Bit odd, considering it was the jacks that were the ones that played up.
Will never happen matey
Just the nine first teamers out for tonight
I'd take a draw at Cardiff any time though.
tbh you could field your youth team and still beat us at the moment.

Fear not. I'm going to tonight and I'm bringing my lucky mojo that saw right royal wins over Scunthorpe and Brizzle City.
3-0 to City.

Nah, we usually come out second best in the battle of the sheep shaggers.
I assure you we are awful at the moment.
Tho if we score first you could get a hiding. (I see half your team are injured!)
And Biffo our lucky heather is there.
I feel a little optimistic.

He could do with spreading them goals about a bit to make sure we win more games. (some people are never happy
)
