Hello Edd, there was a winger B.Smith who played for City Reserves in London Combination for 4 seasons 1956/57 - 59/60 and also appeared in Western League 1960/61.  Source: club records.

Newspaper archives of the old football titles might have some match details.

Amazing result, 5th going into the international break, well done lads.

It will be 6th after after the Brighton v Newcastle result (unless its abandoned)

If the chance to develop Ashton Vale is missed, City will always be limited as a club and would never be able to generate the revenue to stay in the Premier League if we ever managed to get there. In my opinion we would have a nice stadium for the Championship and maybe have the odd season in the Premier League (very big maybe!) The stadium is permanent but league positions are strictly temporary (I hope!). Arsenal had to move from Highbury because it only held 38000 people and they felt that they could not continue to compete with the likes of Manure with 76000 capacity. Sporting excellence is about ambition - I hope that the Landsowns have more than they are currently demonstrating.

The Mayor was happy with housing on the AG site and would be happy keeping City on the site because both of those options feed The Tobacco Factory with paying punters. If the proposition is looked at objectively - the AG option is grossly inferior to AV. We are being legged over by vested interests, green loonies and a very small number of local nimbys. It stinks!

Think you've covered just about everything there old chum. If only England's bid to host the World Cup had been successful then the abuse of TVG legislation could have become a National cause celebre instead of attracting zero attention outside of BS3
