My first match was the season after City lost to Newcastle in the 1955 FA Cup Final. I watched it on a small black and white TV and supported City that day. After a few tears my father promised to take me to a live game the next season. I can’t even remember who it was against but I remember standing in the corner by the north bank and watching Nobby Clark take the corners only a few feet away and to this day can remember most of the team…for me they became legends…Bert Trautman, Roy Paul, Joe Hayes,Dave Ewing and the rest. That day I became a City supporter for life. Now my children and their children all support the Blues even though some of them live in London. No game could have a greater impact on a seven year old.
