Having emigrated to Australia when I was young, I returned to London in 1977 when I was 11. Soon after, I saw a programme on Man City, which included the great Colin Bell desperately trying to recover from his knee injury, and I immediately fell in love with the Club. Alone as a Man City supporter at my school in SE London, I finally got to see my first game on 3 Nov 1979 – Man City away at Crystal Palace. I was so excited we got into the ground almost 3 hours before kick off! It was great to be with other City supporters and although we lost the game 3-2, I was amongst my own at last and had ‘come home’. I have never stopped seeing City since!
