The Asa Hartford Story

"It was 300 miles from home, and I’d never been away from my family before, but it was what I wanted to do so my parents were supportive and off I went."

Asa was in the tunnel club seats (i wasnt, i just looked across) last week at the Everton game with, i presume his grandkids and family, he looked well and the young'ns looked like they supported City, cracking midfield player he was, underated.

If he’s made it to 75, he must have been faking that heart injury!

Happy birthday Asa. What a team that was.

Great piece on the official website re Asa Hartford. Part 1 just released. One of my favourite City players of all time. Great player for us in the 70s/early 80s. Always gave his all.

What a wonderful little player ASA was. He gave his all for City and played full throttle whenever he wore our shirt. One of my all time favourite blues !

It’s my birthday today too ! DIDNT know I shared
it with one of my legendary blue blue heroes. Happy birthday to us Asa !

He was before my time, but my Dad eulogised about him as a player. I was diagnosed with a hole in my heart when I was born, so had an affinity for him growing up!

Wasn’t he turned down by another club ( failed medical) due to hole in the heart and City stepped in and took him on ..
Cracking little player who give his all..

Always one of my favourite City players ever. I loved that '70's side. Happy birthday Asa.
