I Swear I Was There !!!

I was at the Swindon game. I was 12 and used to go to all the home games, first team one week and reserves the next. You got a programme at the first team games and just a printed sheet at the reserve games but, if I remember correctly, the printed sheet still had a token that you could collect? At the start of every season you got a token sheet and the idea was to collect enough tokens to give you first chance at a ticket for a final at the end of the season. We didn't need our token sheets much in those days :) Also, if you wrote to any big club, City included, they had a printed autograph sheet of all the players that they would send out. Anyway, what I remember most about the Swindon game was their star player ... in fact, best player on the pitch by a mile that day ... was Mike Summerbee!

Wasn't there but very jealous, that Jumerbee was some player by all accounts.

My first ever City game was away at Wrexham on Boxing Day 1998. Shit game and it was fucking freezing, but we won thanks largely to Nicky Weaver.

Me and my son were at York, couldn't get tickets for the City area so called up York the week before and told them I was trying to do the '92 Club' and was waiting for York to have a big game for me to attend.
They sent me tickets that were just in front of the media, radio commentators etc., I got told to quieten down three times during the (awful) game.
