Being born in 1956 while we owned a shop in Kippax Street probably meant I was always destined to be a Blue. We moved away to Ardwick and returned to Rusholme in the early 60s. I used to sneak into Maine Road when the gates opened about 15 mins from the end but could never usually see anything.
Then my Dad told me he was going to take me to the Huddersfield game on New Years Day in 1966. We went and I sat on the wall at the front of the Kippax. What a fantastic feeling! The only other thing I can remember was we won (1-0 I think). However that was the beginning of 42 years and counting.
