It's nice to remember just how good we actually were. The speed and accuracy of the passing, the movement upfront, the best central midfield partnership this club will ever have. You could go on, I watched a bit of the championship over the weekend and you realise just how far away from that standard league 2 is.

It had everything.
Steel
Skill
Goals.
After the dodgy start it was just a succession of convincing home victories with plenty of impressive away wins as well.
Lots of games where 2,3,4 or even the odd 5 goals were scored.
An absolute pleasure to watch and as polar opposite to these last few years as you can get.Citymatt, Hulmebantam, Keefly Bantam and 1 other person like this. -

A younger, injury free Beagrie, that took better care of himself (believed he liked the sauce), would have been at a top club and knocking on the England door.Citymatt, Faithful Bantam, Keefly Bantam and 1 other person like this. -

I think our slow start is often referenced as a yardstick for 'patience' in later years. However, the key difference for me, is that in 98/99 we were on an upward trajectory, the structure of the club was sound, we'd made big investments and you could see the fragments of quality in our games. It was disjointed but it was there. Moore, Walsh, McCall, Whalley, Mills, Beagrie, Blake. Obvious talents, and there was genuine reason to believe it just needed time for relationships and connections within the team to form.
If I live another 50 years, I don't think we'll see a better or more enjoyable side.Stop hovering to collapse... Click to collapse... Hover to expand... Click to expand...Citymatt, Onside and Hulmebantam like this. -

What unbelievably fond memories of a perfect time gone by, not just for the footy but life in my late teens in general. How the feck did 25 year pass just like that

Barnsley at home was probably the best individual performance I have ever seen by a man in a City shirt. Watson got the double off the bench, and the 3 points, but it was Beagrie that ran them absolutely ragged.Faithful Bantam and Keefly Bantam like this. -
