The game was against Leicester and the last one of season.City needed to win to stay up.I was only 8 so don’t remember much of the game.My mum took me and afriend,we lived near Maine rd at the time.My dad had died in 1954 and was a fan of City.We went in the main stand even though full,someone let my mum sit down and me and my friend sat on the steps next to her.City won 3-1 and avoided relegation(more to come over the yrs!).The main thing is it can’t have been easy for my mum to take us.I didn’t start watching regularly though till the 61/62 season when Bert Trautmann became my first of along line of City heroes.
