    Best City strike partnership? McMahon and the rest of the 17/18 City squad from Jan 2nd 2018 to around Easter. Whole lot went on strike.

    Yes, bits and pieces of three seasons.

    Campbell & Hawley for me, followed by Mills & Blake, and then Hanson & Wells.

    Jewell and super Sean Mccarthy were always good for the first half of a season.

    Same for me. The three partnerships that stand out for me in over 50 years of watching

    McCole and Stokes were a good pairing.Stokes mainly on the wing but both
    scored regularly, but in those days any player we had that showed quality
    didn't stay when bigger clubs got interested.The money never seemed to be
    used for strengthening,just keeping the wolf from the door financially.

    Agree. The best I've seen, followed by Hanson & Wells.

    Has to be Mills and Blake. They did it at a much higher lever than Hanson and Wells too. And then having Beags on the wing getting into double figures too.

    With Sir Bobby and Hawley a little way behind them.

    Thorne was excellent and Wells also however a guy with no pace and getting on in years was a brilliant finisher Ron Futcher

    It's got to be Campbell and Hawley for me, without that strike partnership City would have not achieved that promotion in 1985 and the success that followed.

    Mills and Blake without doubt for me. I enjoy the occasional re-run of the Chelsea cup win but the Wolves promotion game still sends shivers down my curved spine.

    Think its worth remembering the level at which the Mills/Blake partnership was performing as most of others have been in 3rd and 4th tier
