We have form for it tbf ;-)

You’re probably thinking of James, but Harry Dowd played upfront for us when he got injured and scored the winner

 

[Prestwich_Blue]

Well I just hope nobody was buried during the avalanche…

A few red shirts I believe.

 

[Platt Lane 59]

Good old Nostalgia ..

It's never what it used to be...

@Lavinda Past says hello.. :-)

The 80s were great Phil, thousands of miles travelling to celebrate yet another shit performance. We only went because our mates did. It was something to do on a Saturday. :-)

I actually yearn for the 1960s. 62/3 to 65/6 was my all-time favourite period, when we went from dire to 2nd Division Champions, followed by 67/8 to 69/70... football of the gods.

Proper football. Not this namby pamby nonsense that they play on carpets nowadays.

 

[Axel Freed]

Radio Manchester’s live commentary has Kevin Davies as the pundit. Nice chap, decent player etc but what the fuck is his City connection

 

[Axel Freed]

And you wouldn’t believe how excited this **** Minay sounds at their goal

“Man City lose as Arsenal drop points in title race”

Just about to say the same! Fucking BBC wankers!

 

[Axel Freed]

Expect every article and every clip to include a reference to our unbeaten streak coming to an end, a streak which hitherto barely warranted a mention from the cuntish media

Just like our upcoming innocence.

Dowd actually scored the equaliser in a 1-1 draw against Bury at Maine Road. His arm was in a sling.

The other goal was scored by Colin Bell in his league debut.

 

[Mazzarelli's Swiss Cheese]

Unfortunately they do exist.

Spoke to a guy last weekend after the match who said he hopes we're found guilty of the 115 charges and we go back to the lower divisions. Think he's a season ticket holder too. Said he preferred it then rather than the quiet atmosphere now.

Lots of blue tinted glasses I think. Probably misses his youth rather than the reality.

Top berting. Only a blue could think like this while the world club and PL trophies sit in the cabinet.

Also no subs till the 65/66 season,then only one allowed.

Yes was at the game just 14,000 in a 63,000 capacity stadium,more at Gigg lane for the other league fixture in the 63/64 season another 1-1 watched by 18,000.

 

[BTH]

I'm expecting every paper to run this tomorrow... not that they ever do it for the Rags, or anyone else for that matter!

And it was nearly always Dave Connor!

 

[xgorton]

Yes,but our first sub used was Roy Cheetham who replaced Buzzer away at Wolves 65.

 

[CJH]

And you wouldn’t believe how excited this **** Minay sounds at their goal

Sure hes a Liverpool fan. Remember him screaming Oh Yes !! when we conceded in a game vs Scousers a few years ago

 

[Bluekiwi]

And it was nearly always Dave Connor!

Phil Bowyer (sic) used to get a few groans from memory as well

 

[blue b4 the moon]

And you wouldn’t believe how excited this **** Minay sounds at their goal

Just about know the name.

Does he do the GMR Comms these days? It surely can't be hard to get a local ex City player to do the gig for a couple of beers.

I used to listen to the phone in on the way home after games but a spat between a fan and 'big blue' O'Neill finished me off when after slagging match going fans off O'Neill saw his arse when challenged about the last time he'd paid to get in a game....it was something like that anyway.
