I Wonder how many on here were at the 10-1 win against Hudd?

I had a similar choice. Impoverished student down south - decided I could only spare the money and time (it was a 7 hour journey each way, with changes at Peterborough and Nuneaton) to travel back to Manc for one November Saturday home game. There was the Huddersfield match or Brum a fortnight later. I opted for Brum. We ended up winning 3-0 and, as someone was reminiscing further up the thread, Paul Stewart scored a cracker. Normally you'd be chuffed to bits with that, but I didn't half regret not making the other choice!

Haha, proper nightmare with this game. I was a skint trainee motor mechanic at the time and really on the bones of my arse. Anyroad, I managed to get a foreigner working on a clapped out old mini. To my eternal regret I decided to do something I had never done before or since and lob the game in and work on that on the day of the match. Not only that, I dropped my brother and future to be wife and her dad on Platt Lane.
I remember the day well, working in the pissing down rain on a wanked out shitheap of a car and hearing 'It's a goal' time after time on Piccadilly Radio. And it's fair to say,later that night I got absolutely slaughtered by the lads for not going.
But as a typical blue I've managed to witness all the shite that followed for years until recently.... CITY 'TILL I DIE...

It was a right fuck up was this one. I think I only missed three games that season but my non-league team at the time, St. Helens Town, who were then the FA Vase holders, had their first defence of the trophy away to Rainworth Miners Welfare and I opted to go to that one instead. It's the only home game I've ever regretted missing.
