FROM AN ARTICLE BY JOHN MADDOCKS PUBLISHED IN THE CITY PROGRAMME 12TH NOVEMBER 1988
Shrewsbury were beaten soundly at Gay Meadow in a game that came dangerously close to being abandoned when fireworks were stupidly thrown onto the pitch, the third one seeming to strike the referee. A persuasive Billy McNei1l got the official to carry on, and no wonder as City were well on top, and an abandoned game would have been a severe setback.
All the goals came in the second half, May opening the scoring by knocking in a Power comer (55 mins.) and eight minutes later, Caton blasted home from 25 yards following Tolmie’s short free-kick. Kinsey made it 3-0 ten minutes from the end, and Cross scored a consolation goal for Town before the final whistle.

Can you post your mother’s maiden names too ;-)

My first pet was a budgie that I called Joey, but there were earlier family pets (mainly rabbits, but they weren't specifically mine) and then many years later there was also my first independently owned pet dog ;)

Apparently, in the season that I was born in, City were running away with the league title, however they then slipped off the top spot after a draw in their first match since my birth and then never regained the top spot again. True story :)
