I can’t remember what month it was but we were playing Derby County (who went on to steal our title that season) and we (brothers & me) were late and I was running to not miss a moment. As I got through the turnstile I heard a roar, I ran like a nutter to the top of the Kippax stand to see that we had scored…..poo I had missed that first goal. It didn’t spoil it for me I was ten I had only seen pro football previously on TV via match of the day or the cup final and now I was here watching a live, in the real, City game. It made it for me I was hooked CITY FOR EVER…. We went on win the match 3-2 but lost the title and it has been like that ever since. Great days & poor days but days you never forget….The crowd with fantastic humour and good grace made me realise that this was for life and here I am now 36 years later still proud and passionate of the greatest football club in the world……C’MON YOU BLUES
