fka dagest Posted September 25, 2011 Report Share Posted September 25, 2011 I found this video on youtube I know some people say Jacki wasn't this or that, but these little cameos remind me why he was my favourite player in that era. A Class act. Shame about the defending! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talk Of The Town Posted September 25, 2011 Report Share Posted September 25, 2011 Jacki was my favourite player as well.

I can't remember Scott missing a penalty for us! evidently he did Even when we were not great back then, we played some good football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 25, 2011 Report Share Posted September 25, 2011 Makes you appreciate the huge advancement of pitch/grass technology. Martin Scott.. proper left back, sure he was pretty exceptional at penalties.. what happened Would love to see if anyone has the Portsmouth/City 3-3 home game opener of that season (I think) - that really was some game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fka dagest Posted September 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2011 That game must have been under Denis Smith as he signed Cole, funnily enough I seem to remember Munro being a bit earlier than that. I guess that must have been the first season the East End was seated. As we all know it was never the same after. I'm sure back then it was still only £6 or £7 to watch a game in the EE. How the hell did we end up in a situation where people are paying £30 to watch a game on the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tells you all you need to know about our support, even with Cole Jackie Scott etc etc, with pretty good football. Our crowds were still poor. Anyone thinking we will regularly get crowds of 18k plus after the novelty factor of the new stadium has worn off, are quite frankly living in cloud cuckoo land Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone thinking we will regularly get crowds of 18k plus after the novelty factor of the new stadium has worn off, are quite frankly living in cloud cuckoo land I dont know , football in those days still had a bit of a bad reputation. There was still a bit of hooliganism around and if I remember correctly , you couldn't buy season tickets on a monthly pay scheme so most fans would POTD (may explain why the prices were cheaper). With all the initiatives around now and the matchday experience more suited to women and kids , I think we could be looking at 16-18K in a new ground. We have more season ticket holders today than were in the ground that day!! As far as that team goes , we were 2 or 3 signings short of a decent side. As you say Cole , Jacki , Scott also Gavin & The Chief. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All if and buts. I think the cost of football now will also keep supporters away. 12-15k is the best I can ever see for us at this level, apart from the odd big game.

Never to the dark side Posted September 25, 2011 Report Share Posted September 25, 2011 Just had a look at my tapes scoring as follows punch ups in the Dolman stand left hand side before kick off bright sunny day 1-0 Jackie scoring towards atyeo end 1-1 whitingham scoring towards east end 1-2 whitingham scoring towards east end 2-2 Andrew scoring towards atyeo end HALF TIME HALF TIME 3-2 Jackie scoring towards east end 3-3 whitingham scoring towards atyeo end If any one would like to clarify what I am or NOT allowed to post on the you tube types sites then I am more that happy to post the goal action OVER TO YOU GUYS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gasbuster Posted September 25, 2011 Report Share Posted September 25, 2011 18000 i think you will find 8000 I miss Jackie, pure quality, would pay to go in and watch him by himself, no matter how poor the match you know he would do something to make you smile. I can't remember Scott missing a penalty for us! evidently he did Even when we were not great back then, we played some good football. I think you will find Ciderdevil was right about those gates. Dennis Smith arrived late in the season '91/'92 when we were staring relegation in the face, due to an inept manager in Jimmy Lumsden. The football was brilliant, and there was a determination by all to get out of the mess by playing passing, crisp football with movement. The gates shot up as promotion favourites Ipswich,Derby and Leicester wer dispatched, by on loan Cole, Leroy Rosenior and Jacki. Fantastic time to be watching City. The following season never met expectations, with Smith lasting less than 1 whole season. He had spent his entire budget on Cole, and the board would not give him more funds. Deja Vu ?

The Gasbuster Posted September 25, 2011 Report Share Posted September 25, 2011 Just watched the clip; from '92/'93 season, which was a huge let down. This must have been one of Dennis Smith's and Andy Cole's last games. Osman then took over and was forced to sell Cole around March '93 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pride of the west Posted September 25, 2011 Report Share Posted September 25, 2011 I think we spent about 2mil at the time on the atyeo which stopped us in the transfer market at the time. I certainly remember that as an excuse. At the time there were threats of clubs being fined for not converting to all seater. We took those threats seriously, spent all our cash on the atyeo and went down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fka dagest Posted September 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2011 No problems with getting the action from Video/DVD to you tube,thats the easy part Its the legal situation that I would like clarified I imagine the recording is from an old HTV news report? If so I believe that company is defunct along with the legendary Malone and sky blue v-necked sweaters. Besides there's about a million football vids on the youtube. I doubt anyone would notice or be even be bothered. Can an expert clarify? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim S Posted September 25, 2011 Report Share Posted September 25, 2011 Some one recently contacted the football authorites about me posting football highlights. Still waiting for clarification on football highlights. Old Highlights that are not exclusive to any current contracts giving Sky/BBC/ESPN etc exclusive rights to show highlights or live games can be posted. As long as its not Premier League footage (which the rights have been under contract from the day it started) then old highlights from Football League games are fine to upload to YouTube. It might only be dodgy ground if the highlights or match footage are from Sky but otherwise upload to your hearts content! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spudski Posted September 25, 2011 Report Share Posted September 25, 2011 Aaaahhhhh...those were the days...
