to my dad too, for getting me into the City.

Footy mad great grandad who died with his kids in the '41 Blitz. Other great grandad who followed City all his life and got to see the cup win on TV in 87, year before he went. My grandad who was there in 67 & 87, and got to see me and my late uncle follow in his footsteps for the checkatrade the year before he passed.

Yep a few we have lost on here over the years - it’s for them if nothing else

Yes absolutely. To all those no longer with us who gave us the love of football and most especially the love of CCFC a great big ‘Thank You’. Dad you carried my stool up to highfield road before I could see over the wall in the Spion Kop. We sat together for years through all the highs and lows (fa cup glory, last day survivals, relegation, and even would we survive as a club) with you taking me up and in your later years me taking you and your grandson. My son and I have raised a glass to you tonight. You made us Sky Blue.

My dad passed a couple of weeks ago and was instrumental to me being city. He was there in 67 and we watched us win in 87. Miss you loads dad x

He wasn't the drummer was he?

I'm lucky that my own family that I first attended with are all still with us. However we don't all go together now. Makes me think I should get us all together for a hospitality game next season whilst everyone is still here

Don’t miss my dad really he was a bit of a bugger but he did get me into my love of the sky blues and for that thanks dad

My dad, Ken, who took me to my first game in 1970. He had watched City from the 1930s, and remembered "the old five". He died in 2009.

OSB58....would love his financial breakdown on how we might spend our money and what effect it would have long term!

It’s sad knowing how many died thinking we’d never rise again.

My good mate who came to the watch the city with me season after season until the big C struck him down a few years ago. RIP Alan

My Mum and Dad who used to go in the 1930's, and my brother who took me as a 4/5 yr old kid (he had some patience) all of them were instrumental in my rite of passage into a Sky Blue!! My Mum died 9 yrs ago this July aged 100 and she still asked how're the City doing. God bless them xxxxx
