Port Said Red Posted July 25, 2020 Report Share Posted July 25, 2020 I have no memory of 11 - Durrell? Can anyone remind me? I have found a Wikipedia entry that says he only played 8 games for us, so I think that must explain it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I remember is it being incredibly windy & Rovers being shit, some things never change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitehead’s emergence meant he never got a look in, really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

City Rocker Posted July 25, 2020 Report Share Posted July 25, 2020 4 hours ago, Abraham Romanovich said: Great footage. Noticeably less pace and skill in the game compared to what we've become used to in the modern day. I like how Roger Malone refers to 'young Bater'. Presumably he didn't feel he could get away with 'young Master Bater', but we knew what he meant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Galley is our king Posted July 25, 2020 Report Share Posted July 25, 2020 Was there also, Muller Road end. There were so many City, me and my girlfriend at the time went onto the dog track to see the game. Brilliant time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(just kidding chaps, nothing but respect for my elders!) Seriously, you don't know what you missed Fordy. What an atmosphere, what a comeback, what a memorable day even 45 years later. Biting wind in our faces on an open terrace, getting soaked, watching a thoroughly committed City team battle their way back to absolutely smash Rovers on their own 'ground' (even better after they thought they'd won at half time) Just brilliant, the memory of such fantastic days following City in our youth is what drives many of us to still turn up all these years later to watch the far duller fare of today. Oh, and what a goal that was by Trevor Tainton! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nogbad the Bad Posted July 26, 2020 Report Share Posted July 26, 2020 All achieved without Gerry Gow in the line up as well - presumably injured, but not sure RM mentioned his absence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
