I'm surprised people are still posting in this thread at this time of night, shouldn't they all be in bed?

Probably up for a pis ...

60 in October.
50 years on January 18 2025 since I went to my first ever game at Maine Road. Beat Newcastle 5-1 (Tueart 3, Hammond & the King.)
Had a season ticket at Maine Road junior in the Platt Lane - freezing - soon as I could buy my own Kippax.
Can’t see a time when I don’t go. Only health would ever stop me.
I thought Istanbul was the pinnacle and the love would diminish.
Nope. Already getting wound up about next Sunday!

Geoff Hammond there’s a name the younguns won’t probably have heard of.

When does old start?

When you feel it in your body, your brain always feels young

[the blue panther]

66 now.
Dad, a blue, used to to take us - my oldest brother a red and another brother blue - to Old Trafford one week and Maine Road the next. Started taking me to odd games in 1964/5.
My blue brother persuaded me to follow City in 1965/6 season. The 2 of us started going without Dad, in 1967, running through the dog-shit ridden back alleys around Platt Lane and Maine Rd. I recall being there early to watch the players arrive - Young, Summerbee, Franny - and getting autographs. Wish I'd got an autograph from the guy who was always there, shouting with his billboard "Repent, you sinners" and thinking we should repent due to being City fans!
I regard myself as always blessed - never cursed.
What a wonderful journey it's been.
I get up 4/6 times a year from my home in Suffolk and go to whatever away games I can.
CTID - probably not too long to go now, probably!
