First visit to Maine Road in December 1985, (visiting from South Africa), and City weren’t looking so good near the foot of the table, and we had to play the mighty Liverpool! Caught an early morning bus from Cheltenham along with my cousin Chris, and ate a great steaming hot dog outside the gorund in the freezing weather, taking in all the excitement and atmosphere for the first time – standing in the Kippax stand, witnessed great close game, with Nixon a star in goal, and we knicked a 1-0 win, (Wilson scored I think?), to start a run that would confirm our safety that season!!!! Followed them to Villa Park, & Walsall away in the FA Cup, as well on that visit in 1985, and witnessed 3 wins out of 3 for a 100% win/attendance record!!!! (Maybe you need to get me to more of our games?!!!) – Neil
