The match programme is probably one of the most sought after amongst City collectors I'd say.
I was there went with Stuart Gibson(Stan Gibson was his dad) got Tommy Booths shirt when I got on pitch at the end had to jump into a moat round the pitch and ran on and got the shirt it is now in the City Museum for all to see got invited to party with players at the night but we could not go because we did not have a change of clothes(was soaked and gutted). Good Memories
Four of us hired a car and drove and what a memorable week we all had.
I remember the moat as it was a drop down but the police got a bit heavy handed so we gave it a miss. The attendance was over 8,000 which were mostly City fans, only a few Polish and not many locals I seem to recall.
Yes, very good memories.

That article busts so many myths about us. It even makes the point we did it before Liverpool. Surprised it made it.
Maybe they should do an article on our League Cup victories (11 years before) and the FA Cup (61 years before !!!) to really ram it home to them

How did the article get pass Dan Roan ?
On the other hand it's a cracking resignation letter !!

That’s a shame.nice, some good insights.
i was passed down a ticket stub from that game by my grandfather years ago, and it got lost in a house move about 10 or 12 years ago, gutted about it still
It would be worth a lot of money too.
watch that if you got time
