Hello
I’m amazed to find such detail on this game. This was my first City match, one week after my 8th birthday. I recalled we’d lost 1-2 and that Dennis Tueart had scored…he was my favourite player at the time. Its funny the things you recall, on Mondays at school we had to draw about what we’d done at the weekend,and I remember drawing those red and white stripes! Its an instant back-to-the-future moment and its Monday morning 22nd September 1980!
Massive thanks for this – I’ve bookmarked the page. Incidentally, we stood on the corner between the Kippax and the Platt Lane stand. He used to christen it Coward’s Corner. I don’t know if that is a personal one or others knew it as this ?
Again, thanks for this I will make a donation.
Great work!
Regards,
Ian Barton
