Ok, so I may be counting our chickens but why not have a discussion as to how many points we may need to secure fourth place and a champions league spot. Looking back over the fifteen seasons since 2000/2001, the average points total for fourth place is 69. We therefore have another 37 to go...

Wholeheartedly agree. This is a very average league to say the least. The worrying thing is that we have spent so much and have delivered so little. Let's put our current team into perspective compared with predecessors. Expensive and over paid players, yet and (unlikely) to achieve the heights...

Re: Chris Wood out for 6 weeks Live near Peterborough. Just saw the lads getting on the bus at the hotel where they were staying. No Wood. Schmeichel wasn't with them either, but maybe he is going straight to the ground.

I think you will find that most of these roads are for residents' car parking only. The Posh fans tend to park further up London Road,past the Peacock going away from the stadium.

I've been on the pitch twice. After beating Charlton 2-1 in 1980 to secure promotion and after drawing against Burnley in 1983 when we had to wait the score from Fulham's game at Derby which had been delayed to the crowd encroaching onto the pitch. Even dug a piece of the hallowed turf, laid it...

5-2 v Shrewsbury, 1982 FA Cup 2-2 v Leeds Utd, 1973/74. Leeds had gone something like 20 games unbeaten at the start of the season and we were 2-0 up in the first half an hour or so (Worthington and Birchenall's cracker for 30 yards out0 1-0 Fulham, 1983. An important away victory at our...

I attended a game at Stamford Bridge in the mid 80s. I went with a mate of mine who was a Chelsea fan and we watched the game from the Shed! It was bitterly cold and rain was lashing down. We lost 1-0 or 2-0.

I wasn't there, but I listened to the commentary on Radio Leicester (good old Steve Lambden). Had to turn it off when we were leading 2-1 as they were threatening to score - 'Roger Palmer this' and 'Roger Palmer that'. Did anyone see the re run that they did of the Fulham away game a few...

I hear that we might be signing Edam Hazard or was it Edam Dzeko?

Did he say anything about departures?

With the transfer deadline looming, how about some guesses as to who might come in and who might leave. It's a bit of fun, so here's my thoughts: 1) Beckford to leave - West Ham with Maynard possibly coming the other way or we take the cash to spend elsewhere 2) Zakuani (Peterborough -...

I agree. He reminded me of Paul Dickov in the way he plays the game, although he is physically stronger and quicker. Should have scored with a free header from ten yards out in the second half. Has bagfuls of energy - kept harrying and chasing till the final whistle. Most impressed.

The ground was more or less full by 2.15pm and the atmosphere was electric.

I was at the game. Robert Jones had come in for Lineker(injury) in the previous game against Oldham and scored. I always remember a feature in a City programme on the youth internationals that we had - Jones (Wales), Andrews (England), Kelly (Eire), Rennie (Scotland). Burnley included Lee...

How about the knitwear from Leutchfords that Smudger and Gaz Lineker used to promote?!
