Old Maine Road photos thread

I could have sworn Boro wore their usual red kit with white stripe in the semi....are you sure that's the game?

Looks maybe more like a UEFA cup game?

I think youre very correct b4 ( and i was there) ..the write-up came with the pic and i wrongly presumed my memory was tarnished.

7th August 1968. Charity Shield at Maine Road, Manchester. Manchester City 6 v West Bromwich Albion 1. Manchester City's Neil Young races away from West Bromwich Albion's John Talbut

Great photo of 'Nellie'. Given we've had a highly regarded youth development system for some , we haven't had a 'home grown' established top striker since Young. That's 50 years . Really odd.

Paul Moulden was perhaps the last but never really established himself.

Thats is the City kit I had as a young lad at primary school. Loved it.

My aunt cut out a white number 8 and stitched it on the back for me

Tueart looks as though he's wearing the 75-76 kit, so as I don't recognise the bearded goalkeeper, I'll go for the League Cup Quarter Final v Mansfield.

Is that St Eddys behind? Cool cats .........do you know these lads?

Winston Shepherd? Tony Morgan? Gary Pecky? Utd fans?

There are blues. I saw them all identifying themselves and laughing on Mickey Francis's facebook page. I can't remember who they were but I think one of them might be Alfonso from Jam MCs. Might be wrong about that though.
