Toblerone Posted October 6, 2016 Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 10 hours ago, Ringopiece said: Mine was 8th October 1977, against Leeds Utd in the old first division. I was very young (6) so I don't know who scored for us. City won 3-2 that day, setting me up for a lifetime of enjoyment/despair/stress. Number 1 in the 'hit parade' was Silver Lady by David Soul. For you young uns, he used to play Hutch in the original TV Starsky and Hutch. If anyone can point me to somewhere I can find out the scorers from 1977, it'd be appreciated. I can find the Leeds scorer, but nobody seems to have listed the City one(s). Maybe Tom Ritchie, Joe Royle and Chris Garland? Not that sure though... I know I was away and got delayed travelling back so missed it. Didn't big Norm get one with his boot also flying into the net? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Septic Peg Posted October 6, 2016 Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 Some bloody corkers on here! 26th October 1996. Home to Notts County. 4-0 win and Paul Agostino scored a brace... the number 1 was... Awful... and I still know the words... The question is has @Rudolf Hucker had this lot? Bet that Posh Spice taught him a thing or two. Proper filth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
