14th visit tomorrow

Am actually excited for this one!
Twice as can either not get a ticket or been away, confident this year and one way or the other, I will be there for the final
 
Good question... bit pathetic, only 5 visits. With City, only 3 times (1 win on penalties, 2 losses), plus two other visits before that.

1989: Wigan - St Helens (RL Challenge Cup!)
1992: Stockport County - Peterborough (Play-offs)
1999: City - Gillingham (Play-offs)
2011: City - Rags (Community Shield)
2017: City - Arsenal (FA Cup SF)
 
12 with City
About 75 with England
2 with Barrow
1 European Cup final (Pep v Mancini 1992)
And a few Challenge cup finals and American Football games in the 80’s because a mate was into it and he was the one who used to drive us to a lot of away games.
 
Full Members Cup v Chelsea 86’
Gillingham in 99’
…. then 11 visits (8 wins) in 24 since 2011.

1 with Lincoln City v Shrewsbury in the JPT
About a dozen with England between 85-94.
A couple of Schoolboy Internationals in the late 70’s
 
30-ish, a real mash up:

City men, City women, England, RL, gigs, and once for a weird work-related site visit on my own to a completely empty stadium.

Also, didn't the old Wembley used to have a greyhound track, did anyone go for that?
 
16 with City

2 for England (including one in Euro ‘96)

1 for England schoolboys in the early ‘80s

(bizarrely) 1 for Liverpool v Everton in the charity shield in 1986, which I’ve never once seen when City have been involved.

Also went to the 1990 FA Cup final replay between United and Palace as dad had a spare and I wanted to see them get beat. Remember Dad got done for speeding on the M6 on the way back!
