My fiorst match was at Maine Road and I think it was at the end of the 1947-48 season. It was a rearranged game for one that had been cancelled previously and it was with Bolton Wanderers. Frank Swift was in goal and City won 1-0. It 2ould be good to find out which year I did see my first game. I was taken to see City by Mr. Hampson, a pork butcher from Aston New Road, in Clayton. He has a stunning looking daughter called Jane. City have given me the best and worst days of mt life. It is good to be alive.
