My 1st Game was when I was 9 years old. City beat Spurs 4-0. It was an early season game on the 28/0/1971 and I still wore short pants. The line up was legendary: Corrigan;Jeffries;Connor; Doyle;Booth;Bell;Summerbee;
Heslop;Davies;Lee;Mellor.
The opposition were not bad either; Pat Jennings;Joe Kinnear;Alan Mullery;Mike England;Steve Perryman;Martin Chivers;Martin Peters; & Ralph Coates. Glory Days indeed.

i was eight years old and so excited about going to see my beloved blues that i threw up on the coach on the way to maine road,one of the lads said its usually after the result hes sick!the smell of hotdogs an the roar from the kippax made me feel better an that day maine road became my second home!

my first game was 1979 3rd round of the f.a cup, we played halifax at home, peter barnes was on the front cover of the programme dressed as father christmas. what a buzz as a 9 yr old felt so small in the big crowd. we drew the game and i think we lost the away tie cant remember excactly

I was nine approaching ten and was taken to the CITY, Sheff United game by my father.

We won 2.0 and I remember sitting on the cold wooden seats of Platt Lane behind the goal, drinking hot chocolate from his flask and eating meat spread butties.

I couldn’t believe that we were watching the actual same players I saw on Match of the Day!

My father has since sadly passed away, but I’ll always have the memory that day.
Always

Go-on-the-blues I can still here him shout when I take my boys.

I was 14-years old, a boy from Salford in United territory, but thanks to my best mate a blue through and through. On my first match at Maine Road, the pitch was full of snow and an orange ball flew around the players heads and feet. The smell of cigars in the main stand, the blue scarfs and flags and the Kippax swaying stuck in my mind! The atmosphere was electric and the big named stars, and my idols that I had only seen pictures of, were in touching distance. Bell, Doyle, Summerbee, Corrigan, Watson to name but a few, and City won 2-1. I kept a scarp book of City’s games from that day, win or lose, until I could afford a season ticket, which I have now held for 27-years.

my first game was City against Coventry.I was 10 years old and sat in the Platt lane stand with my dad and my brother.I was deafened by the ovation before the game for the arrival of the Coventry manager-Joe Mercer!
we lost the game 1-2 and Francis Lee missed a penalty.but most important of all-I got to see Colin Bell in the flesh!

Boxing day 1977 my dad asked if i wanted to go and watch City.Dreams do come true.Sat in the main stand with tears rolling down my cheeks as my hero Colin Bell runs out on to the pitch for the second half.what more can you ask for?

never missed a home game in 1976 – use to go with my dad & grandma
i remember sitting in the main stand watching newcastle next to a few ‘away fans’ who were quite vocal – me being me (14yrs old at the time)decided to try & out chant them – much to my dad’s distress – not sure who won on the pitch but i certainly won ‘pitch-side’ – happy days!:-)

I remember running away from away fans down Kippax Street!
