Good find. Same here, he left a couple of years before I started going to matches, though I remember reading about him in my dad's Pink, especially that late winner at the Swamp.First time I've ever seen Alex Harley in action.
The winner he scored was in the last minute ( 3 - 2 ) me and my dad went ballistic, happy daysGood find. Same here, he left a couple of years before I started going to matches, though I remember reading about him in my dad's Pink, especially that late winner at the Swamp.
For context - Everton won the title that season, City were relegated.
Harry was a very good keeper, used to be a plumber. Malcolm Allison's team talk:-harry dowd looked decent
Why would Allison be doing a team talk three years before he joined City?Harry was a very good keeper, used to be a plumber. Malcolm Allison's team talk:-
"Right Harry, were playing Arsenal tomorrow, and they play in red and white"
Peter Dobing was a very good player, as was Alex Harley, I used to pretend to be Harley playing footie in the school playground :)
Notice Alan Oakes and Nelly in the line up.
Harry Dowd played played for City until 1970. Big Mal was joking in an interview about Harry being more interested in plumbing than football, and was referring to a team talk he did around 1967. It used to be on You tube. HTH.Why would Allison be doing a team talk three years before he joined City?
