Old Maine Road photos thread

This is one of the last photos I took with my dad present with me back in or around 2000. He sadly passed away in 2002 and never saw the move to the Etihad nor the success since. Although I reckon he’s looking down from heaven and enjoying every minute of the ride. We used to sit in the Platt Lane from the 1960’s as my dad was in a wheelchair, so after they moved the blue inva cars from the side of the pitch we would park under the old Platt Lane stand until that was stopped in the early 80’s.
