City 10 Huddersfield Town 1

[lancs blue]

Yes, am certain started very sluggishly and 'Uddersfield could/should have gone ahead.
Did HTFC play in the Wilson's Brewery yellow & black check shirt ?
Also, did Andy May score their goal ?
Seemed to get drawn against this team a few times in Cups, around a similar time ?

Yes, the beer mat kit and yes Andy May took the pen.
Drew 2-2 at theirs in the FA Cup, 0-0 at Maine Rd then back to Udders to win the 2nd replay 3-1. Typically we lost the return league game 1-0.

Thanks.
Typical City, of that time.
Really enjoyed it though, as you never knew how City would perform ?

You have just confused two games 11 months apart.
October 1988 we beat Plymouth away 6-3 in the League Cup.
The game was scheduled for the Tuesday but I was on the supporters club coach traveling down to the game and it got called off when we reached Taunton due to torrential rain.
Couldn’t make the game played the next day when we won as above.
I was then on the coach to Plymouth again for the 2nd Division game 3 days later, on the Saturday. And we had been away at Ipswich the previous Saturday!

I remember a match at Plymouth 6 goal away win late 80s I was in work and kept ringing MCFC Clubcall for live commentary on works phone at premium rate, I couldn't put the bloody phone down we were raining goals, City could not stop scoring,( or conceding ) and I couldn't put the phone down.

Got a right bollocking off our manager few days later when the phone bill came in......there was only the one City fan in our Notts city centre office( just up from Rock City) ....I had nowhere to hide....had to own up

Those premium rate lines were lethal.

The replayed cup tie in the pouring rain was 3nil,not 3-1, iirc.

The only match I missed against udders that season out of the 5 played was the nil nil 1st replay at Maine Road.
When Huddersfield Town moved from Leeds rd to their new stadium , something died along the way .
No more cow shed for a start !
