    Getting back to transfers, I know I am getting boring with this, but I would really like to see Dylan Connolly back. Always gave 100%, seemed to enjoy every minute he was here, and in 40 years of watching City he's the fastest player I can remember seeing (maybe that's a whole new debate in itself)

    I wouldn't be against it....just think we need to improve on last season's squad.

    Faster than Daley and JJ is debatable...

    I have seen a lot of city players over the years but I don’t think I have seen one quicker

    They mentioned tonight about the academy set up, that 3 or 4 players could soon be sold to premier league clubs. Correct me if im wrong but werent the rules changed so that barely peanuts are exchanged now in the transfer of kids?

    Im guessing now we'd only make any money from any potential second sale

    Talking about ex city players I thought Oteh showed promise in his loan spell he might be an option

    I said this a few months ago and got shot down for it. Connolly is wick, but I think people are forgetting just how rapid Daley and JJ were. For me, Omar Daley is the quickest player I’ve seen in a City shirt - absolutely rapid.

    Maybe its my memory, but I still think Connolly is quicker.....or perhaps he used his pace to better effect given his other limitations

    12k to 40k per year of coaching for 12-16 year olds dependant on academy level. I think we are at the lower end of that. We got screwed over by other clubs taking the upfront money from PL teams rather than implementing proper fees.

    We were practically funded for years by the likes of cleverley, wisdom and george green. Will be none of that now

    If they make it at another club there's the additional appearance payments which aren't too shabby

    Yeh I'd agree with that. I remember a midweek away against Lincoln. Blown away by how fast he was that game.

    Looks like Eardley will be joining Grimsby. A pity I think he would have been ideal for us

    I hope that doesn't make Luke Hendrie available to come here.
