Apart from the result its was a good laugh; didn't we have the home end because all you could fit was three men and a dog in the away end.

If we won we were up. 12000 blues invaded Meadow Lane, most of them pissed as fuck on a boiling hot day. The terrace behind the goal was way overcrowded , massive surges all over the place, fantastic atmosphere.
In typical City style we were 3-0 down pretty quickly I think. Cue fences ripped down, pitch invasion, mounted police, fights everywhere, general fuckin chaos. I have a vague recollection, possibly imagined of Billy McNeill and Jimmy Frizz coming out to calm the fans down.
We lost 3-2 but that set us up for the unforgettable Charlton game the following Saturday
Aaah the good old days

Wow, someone else remembers that! Thought it was Harry, but anyway. PA announcement for a Mr. Harry Pitchfork, cue 12000 City fans singing there's only one Harry Pitchfork. Seem to remember that bloke with the tuba playing the laughing policeman at that game too.
