Yesterdays victory was SO sweet It’s right up there with my 5 most memorable home games watching City My Top 5, before yesterday 1981 3-2 City v West Ham - League Cup Semi Garry Thomson’s goal will live with me forever. Probably our greatest ever comeback. The way he turned and drilled it in...

My hatred of Leicester stems from being a kid, and City not being on the TV much as the featured game. ( big understatement ) Leicester had this big inflatable tent over the pitch that they blew hot air into, to keep the ground playable in hard frost. This meant that they seemed to have a...

One of my fave all time City goals scored there. Vintage Regis

Took my 4 year old Granddaughter to her 1st ever match back in 2014... Worcester City at home in the cup, hoping she'd get a taste for the great game Needless to say, she never expressed an interest to develop her passion for the Sky Blues after that thriller

Leaving my daughters last night at 10:30pm I turned round to my 7 year old grandson , ( dressed in his full City kit all Christmas day , who is buzzing for todays game and said to him “and the toilet smells of. “ He shouts “DESPARATION” And the streets all echo of … He shouts “aggravation” so...

anyone else at Forest a couple of years later , when i seem to remember Summerbee cracking in a 20 yarder , after being called something that rhymes with banker, every time he touched the ball, that day, because of the Froggat incident. That was a bitter pill to swallow , walking out of the...

Sunderland was the First Cup final i saw on a colour TV. Myself and my Dad went over to a neighbours house to watch Sunderland beat "Dirty" Leeds. That game back in 1973 was probably the reason i loved the FA cup so much, and longed to get there to watch City lift the cup. The flags, the...

Sat next to a guy in the Sky Blue Stand, back in the early 90s. He was prob in his 30s sat with his Mum, and they would have a blanket and a flask to keep themselves warm. What annoyed me was his clapping. He clapped like thunder. Never heard anything like it before or since. The noise went...

Or the festive “Old Five” Against Norwich at HR Think that was the day Wallace scored an overhead kick ? Which meant every time we played football in the park for the next 18 months , we attempted to bicycle kick every ball that came our way !

The slow hand clap always seemed to start in the Main Stand in that era And spread from there I remember My Dad never did it though !

First chant I remember “Milne Out” ! that and the Slow Hand Clap was it Gordon that used the phrase “Nucleus of a good side” at the start of every season my favourite era , remembered fondly Sat in the West Stand, Block R , Row F with my Dad Amongst men in Donkey Jackets , who had just come...

Was that the bank holiday Monday game ! If so , I was one of the other unlucky souls to have made the trek !

Minority chant, around ‘84 , back of the Sky Blue Stand, away, and certain pubs in the town “Knock Knock …. Who’s there , Lena… Lena who ?” Anyone remember to finish the lyrics !?

It was clear the ref was sticking to the rules after his demotion. I didnt know the "intent" decision on the penalty was actually a rule ? as from behind the goal i thought he'd booked their forward for diving ! ......but that decision, and also his awarding for a foul throw ( something i cant...

I went to Jeddah in Saudi as a kid. I was about 10 Amongst one of the few things I remember well, Was that every day when we put the TV on, there was football on No idea who was playing, as commentary was in Arabic. But I remember being pretty envious , as at that age my only football was Star...

Brian Alderson for me, even though at the time my Dad favoured Colin Stein

I’m sure I remember John Beck scoring a pretty silky free kick for City into the west end goal once !

If it’s in your blood, it’s different It’s all about the chanting. It’s all about how many we are bringing, or wondering how many they will bring. It’s all about going. It’s all about being at the match. Going up the City, or going away. When we watch highlights we want to see the away end...

It’s always been hard supporting a club like City Growing up in a city when back in the days , more kids in your class supported Leeds, United or Liverpool . When you’d play on the street or in the park, and everyone pretended to be Best or Keegan I always dreamt of going to Wembley Why could my...
