Random City Players

Mark Seagrave
When we were drawn against liverpool in the FA Cup quarters (1988 IIRC) it was written that two scousers, Redmond and Seagrave, would have to stop the scousers
Seagrave didn't make it onto the pitch and liverpool ripped us a new arsehole

I do not remember the Pope gracing the Kippax.

Yeah I remeber his debut away at West Bromley, we brought him back on loan from some Turkish team, the same day there was a tannoy announcement 15 mins into the game asking all the city fans to stop sun bathing behind the stand and enter the stadium to take their seats.

Not sure we ever sunk low enough to end up playing West Bromley. York, yeah. And Chesterfield. And Wycombe Wanderers. And and and....

I never knew fashanu scored a hatrick against utd reserves!!
I was City daft at the time so not sure how I missed that one.

I did see him play for us away at Derby County in the 6nil drubbing..one of the worst days of my life .6nil to Derby ?
Wow.he wasn't t much cop for us,shortlived City career
Would that be around the time Bet Lynch got hold of him and took around certain nightclubs in Manchester...

Went to that reserve Derby at the swamp. Fashanu was brilliant. Remember a bullet back stick header in his hat trick

Gordon Dalziel, Duncan Davidson.

Graeme Sinclair, Dominic Sullivan, David Johnson, Mike Walsh and Ken McNaught were more of our short term/loan signings of that era

Have we had Geoff Lomax yet?

Tony Grant another loan from Everton, 2000, quite liked him. Talent who lost his way type iirc.
