I was 8, and my dad thought I ought to see a football match. Unfortunately, his knowledge of football didn’t even extend to knowing what colour City played in, with the result that we solemnly cheered the wrong team! I went home happy thinking we’d won 1-0, and had a horrible shock when I saw the next day’s paper. 56 years later, I still cringe at the thought of what the rest of the crowd must have thought! For the record, Ronnie Allen scored Albion’s goal and my childhood hero was Bert Trauttman.
