Every Friday night
The Kippax
- Thread starter Indaparkside
- Start date
You lucky bastard. My boss sent me to pick up some tickets off Stan Gibson, I walked in as you could do then and saw Stan on the pitch so I walked towards him. I got a huge bollocking. No one was allowed on his pitch. You got to stand in the goals the lot. I presume Stan was on holiday :-)
Was good for those days and all!
A huge part of the club changed indefinitely, for the worse, when they tore down the Kippax and replaced it with the all seater stand.

Hated the platt Lane fuck up and the NEW Kippax......shyte
What Swales did to the Platt Lane was criminal. In fact what that prick did to MCFC full stop was criminal.

I was in the company of an ex city manager and I’ll share this on here when he spoke about the ground redevelopment. At a board meeting it was literally a toss up on redeveloping the kippax or spending what money we had on signing a young Portuguese lad … who was called Loui Figo …true story that . He was adamant on how close we were to getting him.

City had a much lower attendance the previous season in a mid-week match against Middlesbrough with 8,053 there.
Manchester City vs Middlesbrough, Division Two (Old), Tue 17 March 1964
Details of every game played by Manchester City Football Club
I was at both matches and at the Swindon game too. I couldn't get a ticket for York away mind.

I was at that game, best part of 15 years later I ended up working at The Valley, the long standing CAFC fans there still wondered at the atmosphere....
