29/09/1973 at Burnley. To think he was just days short of his 39th birthday and playing in the top flight. I am 99% certain this was his last league appearance?

Yep. Played only 4 league games in 73/74, this was his final league app.

We did play a total of 7 fa and league cup games after this date ( Inc replays ) not sure if he turned out in any of them ?

Happy birthday, Skip. A City legend.
(P.S. Are you sure your birth certificate is correct? It looks smudged to me.)
