I was only 5, went to Sincil Bank to see City take an early lead through Rosler. Then my rollercoaster ride of being a City fan begun with me leaving Lincoln having seen us lose 4-1!
I was hooked.

My first game was at Maine road against Newcastle in the 95/96 season. I was 10 years old and went with my dad and brother who surprisingly are also blues. It was the most exciting game I’ve ever seen, a 3-3 thriller with action galore. Poor old Keith Curle was battered by Faustino Asprilla in what turned out to be a great battle between the two sides.

My first City game was at Maine Road against Tranmere Rovers. We travelled with the Tranmere fans, because we are from Birkenhead, and sat in the away end. It was a great game and very hard not to stand up and cheer when City scored,though I was jumping up and down inside! It was 1-1 in the end. I had a fantastic time and was totally sold on City. The only sad thing was that our coach was bricked in the car park.

My first City match was against Southampton in March of 96, the one where Georgi Kinkladze burned four defenders before chipping the keeper for a goal. It was absolutely glorious, and it further affirmed my love for the club. CTID!

Friday night at the Student Union and a group of friends decide to take in a game. We headed over to Maine Road for the game versus Birmingham City the following day.
I recall it was a tough game and, despite coming from a family of Burnley fans, I bought a City shirt before the game and I can still see Kinkladze putting the penalty away and the crowd cheering.
After the game we were among the last home fans to leave the ground. I can report that the Birmingham City fans were not very happy with the result that day.

this is my earliest memory of a football match – i knew it was a crucial game because my dad told me before we went, all the happiness and sadness was wierd because i had never seen such emotion before. but all the cheers around the ground when uwe rosler scored his penalty, i got on the seat and caught my shoe in the chair and fell. everything was happy until after the game hearing that even though we had drawn against them it was not good enough. and then the sadness that came with it, i was hooked for life and always will be
