Just think about this, she has lived through:

• End of World War I
• Spanish Flu
• Representation of the People Act
• Irish War of Independence
• General Strike
• Great Depression
• Abdication of King Edward VIII
• World War II
• Suez Crisis
• Devaluation of the Pound
• UK Joining the European Economic Community (later the EU)
• Winter of Discontent
• Thatcher Era
• The Troubles
• Good Friday Agreement
• Diana’s Death
• 9/11 and the Wars in Iraq and Afghanistan
• Brexit
• COVID Pandemic
• Johnson, May, Truss, and Sunak
• Queen Elizabeth’s Death
• Cost of Living Crisis
• Far-right Riots

Oh, and on the positive side, City winning everything that can be won!

And these are just the major events I could think of off the top of my head.

She deserves an incredible amount of respect and I hope the club have something planned for her.

Happy early birthday, Mary! I hope lads hammer the rags for you!
