Ha ha

Going to Leeds and coming back with one of their scarves was a right of passage.

Going wild when Niall Quinn curled the
third(I think) one in against Leeds when they were going for the title, Quinn's penalty save against Derby, Courtney's shambolic display when we lost 0-3 to Liverpool.

The first truly 'electric' atmosphere I remember was agin Everton in April 1968.
Rags were top,City second.
We won 2-0
Rags lost 5-3
Kippax really drove us on that night & to the title !!

Was there it was something else

Yes I came back with one when the fuckers beat us 2-0 in 68,but we won 3-1 a few days later at OT so all was well.

That may have been the derby that became known as the battle of The Kippax.
Bricks, bottles all sorts of stuff lobbed that day. Lots of bloody heads I seem to remember.

That was August 68,about 3/4 th game in.

More glass than Pilkingtons that day,streams of fans walking round the pitch,claret everywhere.

When Colin Bell made his return against Newcastle that was an emotional day in the Kippax .also remember mass battles with the Geordies before and during the game.loads of bricks were getting thrown from the back of the Kippax but they were also hitting City fans

Someone must have that picture of a fan being escorted along the outside of the Kippax with a dart sticking out of his head.

Let's have it.
