Happy 99th birthday Maine Road

[Gary James]

Maine Road opened on this day in 1923. Film of that day here: https://gjfootballarchive.com/2022/08/25/film-of-maine-roads-opening/

Still sorely missed.

In typical City style the crowd on film is reported as 80,000; City’s official figure was less than 59,000!

Wonder how many individual people passed through the gates at MR over the years. Obviously there's no way of knowing as it'll go from long-term S/T holders to single match fans.

Was there anyone who went to both the first and last games at Maine Road?

I reckon you might get a few who said they went to York piping up saying they did.
