  1. That's more than I can do!
  2. Did we win 5-3? I remember the game - but not who scored!
  3. I had a struggle and also had to be let in with a card. The helpful man who sorted it made several suggestions, including running the phone from top to bottom over the scanner. I was a bit dubious when the match changed from Preston to Birmingham on the ticket while I was in the queue. I thought, I'm not that late! The date was still correct though. I have used the phone to buy stuff, so thought it would be okay.
  4. Thank you for the tribute Fordy62. Such sad news. Condolences to Woodsy's family and friends. I shall be sure to smile at the robins nesting near my back door.
  5. Despite witnessing far more limp first round exits than exhilarating cup runs over many years, I found myself trying to sort tickets this morning before going on holiday. Oh well. I notice they are not issuing digital tickets for this, by the way . . . !
  6. I was on the East End too that night. I remember it began as what you might call a normal drop kick punt up the field from the edge of his box. It was caught by the gusty wind and surprised Hull keeper Jeff Wealands, who left his line to collect but misjudged the bounce and got stranded as the ball sailed over him and nestled in the net. His startled stance in the aftermath linger in my memory as much as the City players rushing back to mob stunned Cashley. I don't think it was recorded anywhere. This was before Jonathan Pearce's dad started filming matches for Alan Dicks to do analysis, as far as I know. I do recall Roger Malone trying to get Cashley recreate the moment the next day for HTV in broad daylight. Of course, the wind had dropped and Cash's attempts for the camera got nowhere near.
  7. What was the tune, please? I have already forgotten! Senior moment. My missus liked the wahoooooo bit!
  8. Just noticed he's gone on loan to Gillingham, so not impressing the Imps either it seems.
  9. Same here. Real rapport with the fans. Agree with the comments about his bravery. I can only add one trivia note. Occasionally he wore a blue top instead of the standard green of that era. My heart sank when he did that. We always lost.
  10. Fabulous to see this, plus the typical tenacity from Gerry Gow to prelude the magnificent strike.
  11. Hope he's okay. Perhaps he will chat to the media later.
  12. He had a distinctive voice and spoke with a lot of authority. The iconic match not mentioned by the BBC here was his coverage of City's 1-0 win at Old Trafford in the old Second Division around 1974. I seem to remember him thanking Alan Dicks for daylight robbery! RIP Gerald.
  13. RIP Bobby. A terrier and a bulldog all in one.
