[Mad Eyed Screamer]

Great player, similar to Tommy Hutchison, on the wing zipping.past

 

[blue b4 the moon]

Great player at Burnley. RIP

I can also remember him getting loads of stick at MR when he went to Derby....the original 'owner' of the What a waste of money chant?

 

[Keeper!]

RIP he was a one off, a great player, a great character and he was Welsh

 

[Gingers Dad]

My first ever City game and he got Doyle sent off, anyway we won 4-3.

Derby were the reigning champions then I think.

Stuck two fingers up to the Kippax in the days when that was just regarded as friendly gesture

RIP Leighton.
Actually got to know him around 20 years ago. Yes he was very forthright with his opinions but put a lot back into the community after retiring from football.

Whoever put the date in the corner has got it wrong..no way the King was playing in 76

Great game that, Dennis running the full length of the pitch with everyone in pursuit to score the fourth goal !
