Random City Players

Sad news,remember as a kid we had 2 Welsh left backs,Vic Gomersall and Cliff Sear.
Vic Gomersall was born in Manchester. I recall him from City reserves. He did make 39 appearances for the first team.

After he left City he played for Swansea for five seasons and finished his career in Welsh football.

I am not sure that made him Welsh?
 
MIke Horswill. We bought him at the same time as Denis Tueart, but he never made an impression. Spent his time with us as a professional drinking partner to some of the more established players, according to his memoirs. I was driving back from watching City play at Sunderland ten years or so ago, and he was hosting the local radio show analysing the game.

Mike Lester. Touted as the 'next big thing', but sank without trace.

George Weah. Joe Royle told him to 'sit down, shut up, and fuck off', so he did.

His funeral was about 3 weeks ago in Swansea. Sportsmen and fans from all different sports and variety of ages out for it. Top bloke round here
