For those Blues that are no longer here

[Blue2112]

For a small moment on Sunday let us all remember those Blues we've all lost along the way. I shall pay a visit to the rememberance garden before the game and say hello to my best mates dad Tommy Smith who's ashes are scattered there. I still miss him 8 years now and tell him the ball must have bobbled whenever a Rag player was about to shoot and he'll know exactly what I mean.

For Malcolm Allison, Neil Young, Ken Barnes, Ken Branaghan (50's City player and my wifes uncle) Mike Doyle and all those others that we knew and loved Sunday is for you as much as us.

Say hello to Ged Barker for me please mate.

Is that Tommy Smith from Cheetham Hill?

For my old fella. Died last Nov. Lifelong blue. Ive spent hours watchin City while sat on his shoulders. He will be smiling down his beloved blues. His all time favourite player was Mike Doyle. Not a bad choice in my opinion.

When we scored the first yesterday I didn't go mad like everyone else

I hugged my wife and eldest and thought of my mum and dad who took me there in 68

Mind you I was closer to the pitch then, and closer to them yesterday
