Biggest Cult Hero?

Kiki Musampa? Just checked his stats, only scored 4 for City, which surprised me.
Come to think of it don't actually remember many of his goals. Do remember a cracking last minute winner against Liverpool, think he also scored in that bizarre Boro watch where Pearce put keeper David James 'up top'!!
I remember a blue singing a ditty on the train after a the Liverpool match about that legend.

Went something Like. "Kiki Musampa he smokes Marijuana..." and a funny line about that's why he plays for us.

That one against Littlewoods was a fantastic team goal, and wouldn’t have looked out of place in the last five years.

BWP and Lee Croft were both heavily involved in the build-up:

 
I knew Heath’s record was poor....didn’t realise it was that bloody poor.
Heath was the first City player I ever hated.

Every game I turned up to Maine Rd hoping Clive Allen was playing and couldn't get my head around why Heath started.

His goal in this game is the first (and possibly only) City goal I was gutted we scored.

But looking back at these highlights - that's the best City kit of all time, fuck me Maine Rd was special when the Kippax was standing only and it was full, and what a player Paul Lake was.

My first game at Maine Road and Lakey's last before his injury.

My love for City grew even more, and I couldn’t wait to see them again. I was there for the Villa game (won 2-1) the following Wednesday and then went to Bramall Lane the next Saturday for what was a fucking awful game.

Either Howard Kendall told Tony Coton to adopt Bassett's tactics, or he took it upon himself to do so, as every time he had the ball in his hands, he punted it as far as he could towards Big Niall. It ended 1-1 and it’s still one of the worst games I’ve ever seen live.
 
Gerry Gow, Gerry Gow, Gerry Gow...sang that countless times during that 81 Cup run. Gow and Nicky Reid were probably my favourites that season. Both totally committed and didn't take any shit from anyone and hugely popular with the fans.
Remember a league match at Crystal Palace where Gow pretty much started a brawl and then scored a last minute winner shortly afterwards. Not sure how long he would remain on the pitch these days!?

Of all the cult heroes we've had over the many years I've watched City, Gerry Gow just about edges it for me. Cometh the hour, cometh the man, he was an absolute inspiration in midfield during his relatively short time with us. Despite his hard-man image he could play a bit too.

My eyes must be deceiving me.....did David White get an assist with his left foot? That’s a rarity

Out of interest mate, is the High Lane you manage actually High Lane, or is it the rebranded Adswood Barcelona who pretended to be High Lane? :-)

Ha ha I remember Adswood doing that. Yes it’s High Lane’s Saturday team I manage in the Lancashire & Cheshire League. I used to also manage the Sunday team
