Fucking hell this thread brings me back!! I cut my City teeth watching games with these guys. My best buddy from Rochdale, Tommy, knew these guys. I always remember Bernard with a burger in his mouth in a pub somewhere. Glinny is that guy still alive?? Every time I saw him he was a mild mannered bloke drinking a pint and we would sit and have a chat.
I also remember a guy called Albie who was absolutely mental. For soem reason this guy had loads of girls. he got so much pussy it was untrue.
I remember a long session in the Chaddy Tavern after we beat Sundarland (and relegated them) in the early 90's. What great craic that was!!!!
I also cut my teeth going with these lot, I think two out of my first five with these I got nicked (Villa and Leeds away), I was only 17 and a bit wet behind the ears but I certainly got more streetwise pretty quickly.
Glinny is still knocking about, he doesn't go home games but still does the aways, last time I saw him was about 2 years ago.
Was anyone on here on one of the two coaches we took to Stoke for the infamous fancy dress game on Boxing Day. We went from the owl and Spindle, crazy day that.
