Youve dislodged a few memory cells. A long time ago Gordon West was a big name as the goalie for Everton a bigger team than Liverpool who might even have been in Div 2. So there was a touch of glamour about Everton and Gordon coming to Maine Road.
City got a free kick just inside the Everton half in front of the scoreboard end. Step forward Bill Leivers, now City's second oldest surviving player, hard as nails but a gentle Sunday School teacher.
He took a shot from about 50 yards at Gordon West. He didn't score but the crowd was still buzzing as City got another free kick in almost the same place. This time the crowd were expectant but there was no goal despite another rocket shot.
My memory is fading as l recall one shot being brilliantly saved by West and the other beating him all ends up but hitting the bar yet l can't remember which came first. My memories might be wrong but the drama of the duel between goalie and ex-coal miner remains. Perhaps someone else will remember better.
Longsight M13 might not remember Leivers but l daresay he knows the little church on Beresford Road but not that a City captain used to preach there.

I’m the same mate regarding city memories, But I do remember big bill walking through platt fields on his way to Maine road before a game, our selves having walked down palatine road via Wythenshawe.

We went boating in the lake and Dave Ewing was doing the same. How times change.
My mum said Mrs E was common as she was rather loud.

No but he's a Liverpool fan and always wanted to play for Liverpool and his dad was a season ticket holder , its a pre-requuisite for all their players , KDB apparently was a Dipper fan when he was young and easily led , i fear the attraction of the cult could tempt him to play for the cheeky chappies at Klanfield. Klippety could spend all the money he has made on selling academy players to sign him, he might be a £100m short though.
 
Never heard of this before?
