Favourite City memorabilia

[Phuk Tifano]

Old City codgers like me will remember the old souvenir shop at Maine Road. Way before the days of merchandise megastores, it was about the size of a wardrobe and was run by a grumpy fella called Eddie Phillips. It contained no end of quality tat, but my most treasured items were:

1) "Man City are Magic" blue metal badge, the size of a saucer
2) "I Scored at Maine Road" knickers - bought them my mum for her birthday without realising double-entendre
3) Sky blue leather autograph book (which Steve Mackenzie christened)

Anyone else have any personal faves?

I've bought so much tat over the years I can scarcely remember what I've done with it. I got a scarf about 30 years ago and it's still around here somewhere.

Memorial scarf from Old Stretford derby the season before last: the famous fifty year anniversary party which we crashed, and dissapointed the rag love in that had characterised all City fans as foaming at the mouth and popping champagne to celebrate the Munich air disaster.

Well FUCK. THEM.

It reminds me of that.
