Gordon Milne was manager

That’s a good point and something I hadn’t thought of before. Our team in that semi final was very young. For Hutch it would have meant he he lost the mantle of being one of the very few players to score for both teams in a cup final.

Tommy worked in schools for twenty odd years after finishing as a player, first in South Wales and then for Bristol City in the Community. He loved it, especially when he was working with kids from disadvantaged backgrounds that were similar to his own.

I think when they moved to Man City both Hutch and McDonald were out of the team. Tommy had returned from America, played a few games (including a League Cup tie at Brighton for us which left him Cup tied for Man City’s run to the semi final, losing to Liverpool, we also got to the semi final...

Tommy Hutchison on the Sky Blue History podcast this week. Hopefully the link below works. If you haven’t listened before, this podcast is well worth a try with lots of great content that many contributors on here will have lived through.

Leicester could be this season’s Luton?

Inevitably mentioned by the Sunderland guy!

Had to laugh at what the Middlesbrough contributor had to say

This was what the contributor for our club had to say

Prediction for the coming season from the magazine When Saturday Comes. Prediction is based on a poll of where each contributer thinks each team will come. Surprised at who comes out as Champions.

Expectation was sky high that day, probably fuelled by the friendly win against Everton when we looked superb. The away end that day was really bouncing before the game. I was high up in the corner and it was the loudest noise I have ever experienced, at football or anywhere else for that...
