I was there went with my mam and dad and my younger brother.Met up with Stuart Gibson the City groundsman son as I knew him well even slept at his house by the side of Maine Road.At the end of the game we jumped down into the moat around the ground and got onto the pitch where I managed to get Tommy Booths shirt which now takes pride of place in the City Museum.Managed to get it signed by all the players.Also got invited to the players do at the night but was that soaked did not make it as had no change of clothes.So that is my story of the game as well as winning the ECWC and being there.
