Did the same for the fella who took me to my first games in 91 and is no longer with us. Surreal unchartered territory this and I'm thankful for every minute of it.
At the full time whistle the tears fell as I thought of my dad. From being a young kid sitting on the Platt Lane benches with ĥim, to being at the Attaturk to watch us become treble winners without him. 25 years on and I still miss him. Love you dad x
Wish my Dad could have seen City winning a treble always got stick from Utd fans at work and in the pub . My best memories at Maine Road as a kid in the late seventies with him and my brother .
Tony was a mate of mine and my brother. He was a super opinionated guy and we loved him for it. We raised a glass to him on Saturday night during the post match celebrations in Istanbul.
In tears at the final whistle, thinking of my dad who died in 1996 in despair at the state of our club and my niece Emily who passed away in 2019 aged 21. She went to all our home games with her dad in the south stand , he was in Istanbul and know she'll have been cheering from heaven with her grandad.
