https://www.mancity.com/news/club-news/club-news/2019/city-dna/city-dna-27-its-a-goalYeah I remember too on the End of Season Video Paul was interviewed about it by Brian Clsrke of Piccadilly Radio
Whatever happened to him?
a young Gary McCallister scored a screamer chipping the goalie from about 25 yards....Yeah I was there. Looked a normal injury at first and then I remember seeing his legs convulsing and the whole crowd screaming for a doctor to get on the pitch. Really strange atmosphere after that and poor half ended 0 0.
There was an announcement at half time that he was ok abd it then settled to a normal game. Pretty sure Morley got a hat trick in the second half and everyone was shocked as he was the crowds booo boy at the time.
Macclesfield Town away! Wasn’t a day to look forward to for me and my brother. Born and bred in Macc but lifelong City fans. Had to queue at ticket office at Maine Road from about 4am for the right for a ticket to enter the Moss Rose! Watched the rain tipping down from the pub opposite the train station as train after train arrived full of blues. To this day its sill a joke as to how many of us were in the ground that day, as the announcer genuinely said ‘ and todays attendance is? WE’RE FULL!’ Thank god for the ‘Goat’ that day, or I’d still be getting earache!
