The Umbro stand - Greatest moments

The greatest moment of that stand was surely when i got almost knocked out by a stray warm up shot and city gave me a £40 shop voucher to make up for it ;)

Cup games i liked to move round the stands rather use my kippax seat, and i hadn't spotted this shot coming and had just stood up to go to the loo - cue being hit like a punch on the side of the head over into the row behind. Slightly embarrassing - not sure who kicked it but no one did shots that hard in the matches in those days - i think they used all the energy in the warm up... memories eh.
Puts kinky's mazey run against so'ton to shame! ;)

The bloke who used to bring a dead chicken and wave it around for everyone to see and cheer. I bet nobody remembers that.
 
Lads passing spliffs down the rows who were chain rolling them during the Bury game.

Hazy memory (not from the above) Quinn saving Saunders penalty after TC was sent off or was that still the Platt Ln?
