My first game was the coca cola cup fourth round against Newcastle, November 1994. I was gripped from the minute i walked into the umbro stand. The game was 1-1 and Rosler scored our equaliser. What I remember most was Keith Curle and Andy Cole having abit of an altercation and my memory maybe abit hazy but I am sure Cole kicked Curle up the bum…fond memories!! Once a blue always a blue!!

My first city game was against Swindon Town in the FA Cup we won 2-0 I knew my family were all city fans I waz speaking to my mum about city n suddenly the phone rang my mum picked it up it waz me uncle mick who normally goes to every city game n i sed to me mum who iz tht n she sed it iz uncle mick saying bout if i wud like to cum n watch city n what gud 2-0 win i enjoyed it n started going to city game’s since then n cnt stop blue moon

My first city match was great, walking up the stairs seeing the blue seats smelling the fresh cut grass,listening to the cazy cool music.
Just that one match made me say city till I die…. city won, the crowd went crazy when city scored.But overall it was just a great day out.Thats why I’ll always be a true blue!!! rhianne duncan,aged nine.

My first City game was Boxing Day 2002. I was only 2 and a half but was so excited about my first vist to Maine Road with all my family. We played Aston Villa, won 3-1 and I remember every time we scored the noise was so deafening it made me shake. A very special player Mark Viven-Foe scored 2 goals and Ali Benarbia scored the other. It was a great Christmas present and I now love the roar every time we score !

My first game was City V Leeds at COMS in 2004. I was 10years old and was very excited for my first game. As i walked up towards the stadium i and seen the staduim in front of me i knew i had choose the right team. The game ended up 1-1 the atmosphere was great even though it was freezing! SWP played that day and he has been my favourite player ever since. After i got home from the game and couldnt wait for the next!! CTID xx

Consulting my Ray Goble City Compilation book the date had to be April 18, 1959. I can’t find Blackburn in the first division in the immediate preceding years.
My first ever visit to a professional football match was a spontaneous ride on a Charabanc with our local supporters club from the Wellington Inn on Stretford Road – Hulme. Jim lyons, my father, surprised me by suddenly announcing that there was room on the coach and I had to grab my jacket and away we were! Until that moment I hadn’t even been aware of any connections with the Wellington, because if my Dad had a ‘pub’then it had to be the ‘Grant’s Arms’ on Jackson Street.
Very few memories remain of the game, I vaguely remember that Blackburn had a number of legends playing for them, Douglas, Clayton spring to mind. What I can remember, vividly was the vast crowd compacted into Ewood Park, locals and Mancunians intermingled and the incessant unmalicious banter throughout the game. The frightening squashed feeling as we were channeled towards and through the claustrophobic exits after the game and the ride home again to Hulme at the back of the bus. I was sick of course. Oh and City got beat that day, some things never change!

My grandad took me to see City immediately after the war.I was 6years old.We would arrive at the ground before the turnstiles opened at 12 noon (kick off at 2pm).We arrived early to ensure a position on the wall at the corner of what later would be called scoreboard end and Kippax street.we took a stool for me to stand on(can you imagine that being allowed now?)
Grandad didnt have to pay for me-the man taking the money allowed me to be carried over the turnstile.Another time we went we didnt manage to get to the wall so I was carried over the heads of the crowd by the supporters and placed inside the wall and watched the game from there.
I cant remember much of the games but do remember the tall dark figure of Frank Swift. Remember Andy Black ,I am sure that City had player with only one arm (was that Smith?)

my first city game was against aston villa when we won 2-1.

it was fab

I WAS 6 YEARS OLD WHEN I WENT WITH MY DAD THE SCORE WAS 3.1 TO CITY BENJANI,VASSELL AND PETROV SCORED I WAS VERY PROUD OF THE RESULT!UTAKA SCORED FOR POMPEY SINCE THIS GAME I HAVE BEEN TO 10 MORE GAMES.
