I was 3 months old when City beat Charlton 2-1 away in August 1964 .. Them were the days .. Think I had my first pint at that game :-)

won 2-1 against WBA at home 30th March 1957, the day after I was born.
Using the wonderful new section on Bluemoon, you can look up what the first City match was after you were born.
So what's yours?

I don't often start threads, thought of this one when i was looking for the first home prog after my sister was born (as a bday presie).
So i then looked up my own thinking it'd be good to frame it...
Til i found it was this one -
Don't really want to frame a weird drawing of Tony and Rodney trying to kill Swales by dropping the fa cup and league on his head, or are they hoping to hit him with the cracker ;)
(Or would the comb over break the impact?!)
The first match we played after i was born was
21/12/1974 - wolves in the league, an exciting 0-0!
I guess i was the curse ;)
(First goal scored after i was born was by Colin on boxing day 74)
(edit to write the match easier to read like the poster below!)
