Correct . Did anyone notice the shirt numbers ?

Yeah 1-11 for you lot, 12-22 for us. ANOTHER first that we took part in, and to say we have no history PAH!

On a side note DSOB, i'm not sure Dixie's goal would of counted in the modern game, what an animal :D

Amazing how both our record goalscorers we're playing in this game and also i certain number 15.

Is it true what it says on there that you had no manager, the team was picked by Dixie Dean?

Of course you can, there's been quite a few releases and there's videos on youtube as well.

Apparantly we were one of the last teams to appoint a manager , and in 1939 , we appointed Theo Kelly as our first .

Can't view youtube in work but I will take a look later as this sounds interesting.

I wonder how much they want for that Dixie Dean ?

May the cup stay in Lancashire, and it did. City went back down the following year and brought it back to Manchester.
