I kind of understand what you mean but it seems you are judging this with your Sky blue glasses on. Moussa has no emotional connections to the club so why would he learn the history. Yes it would ne nice if all our players were bothered enough to look into it but remember to some players, its just a job. I have worked for my company for 7 years but theres lots I havent bothered to learn historically about it because it doesnt interest me.
I could understand it if a young foreign player didn't know a cup final goal scorer at Man Utd or Liverpool etc. because they've had so many...
....but we've only ever won 1 pigging trophy of note....and Houchens goal is regarded as one of the finest cup final goals in what is widely regarded as one of the most open & entertaining post-war finals...surely there must be reference to it in or around the club facilities??
I've got a mate who is a 'big' cov fan.
Before Christmas john Hartson did a thing in the festival pub and houchen was there. We were in the bar and he walked past and I said "its Keith Houchen".
My mates response was "who?"
His excuse for not knowing the CCFC legend scorer of a stunning diving header in our only major trophy win in one of the best cup finals ever was "I'm only 25 I wasn't born...."
Fucking hell. I said that's like a man utd fan not knowing who George best is.
Even more unbelievable was he though his name was Steve Moucher or something.
Needless to say he won't live this one down!!
Does Houchen know Moussa?

Oh...I wonder if he's heard of Houchens Head?
come on!!! Surely considering the privileged position they find themselves in and the amount of money they get (and yes I know its not the greatest at city but still far more than 95% of users in here take home) that they would / should have a knowledge of history of the club.
Or maybe I am asking too much??
As others have mentioned it was 2 years before he was born! Not an issue.
I was 4 when we won the cup and can name about 3 players from the team, if that.
I've also never seen the game. I've got a copy of it, but I've never watched it.
