Port Said Red Posted February 2, 2015 Report Share Posted February 2, 2015 I preferred Anthony....... Ha, my girls asked me what a cassette was not so long back.....how to make you feel old! My Brother in Law took a USB powered record deck into his work so some people could convert some LP's into MP3. One of the young lads was really enjoying the 1st Specials album and one of the guys asked him what he thought of one of the tracks on side two. "side two?" he replied............

cidered abroad Posted February 2, 2015 Report Share Posted February 2, 2015 Was there even a transfer deadline day back then? I thought it was a relatively new thing? The old transfer deadline day was the Thursday that was six weeks before the last matches of the season. It still exists for emergency loan signings although I'm not sure if it is still six weeks from season end. I have just looked it up and the final date for emergency loans is the third Thursday in March. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheresaGreen Posted February 2, 2015 Report Share Posted February 2, 2015 Not sure if it was deadline day but what a signing Stephen McLaughlin was! Fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UK0wnag3 Posted February 2, 2015 Report Share Posted February 2, 2015 Not sure if it was deadline day but what a signing Stephen McLaughlin was! Fire. Lots of great memories there! Like the time he came on against Colchester and set up Baldock's equaliser. Or the time he came on against Colchester and set up Baldock with a sitter, only for him to miss... The days...

Aaron-Bcfc Posted February 2, 2015 Report Share Posted February 2, 2015 Best in recent times, (if we're counting the March loan deadline) has to be Bikey. Came in for the last 7 games and we didn't lose a single one. What a player! Wouldn't be unfair to suggest he kept us up single handedly, with help from the other loanees.

Kingswood Robin Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 Didn't Bob Taylor arrive on deadline day? Scored a few at the end of the 89 season and shone the season after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Him and Cisse were the key players behind that season's relegation escape. Well, at the back at least. Stead was working heroics up front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stead was working heroics up front. Ah yes Cisse was brilliant what a rock infront the defence. When him and Bikey went in that summer our spine was gone. As you say Stead was great as well, his goals and all round game were vital Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Red Rich Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 Oh my. If you aren't old enough to remember the proper deadline day (middle of March, from memory), racing home from school and wading through pages and pages on Ceefax looking for our name to pop up, then you've not lived my friend Did you know that cd's haven't been around forever either? And that Wagon Wheels used to be twice the size Tsk, kids I remeber the day we sold Goater to Man City & signed Sean McCarthy on loan as his replacement. It was like the equivalent of selling your 3 series & replacing it with a lorry.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashtonboy Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 Don't remember whether there was a transfer deadline day then, but Chris Garlands return to the club at the end of the season during the 70's saved us from relegation. Most of those matches were against the big guns of the 1st division of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshtonGreat Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 Nicky Morgan For me, things were never the same for me after Nicky Morgan came in. It was the catalyst that saw the eventual exit of my favourite ever City player, Bob Taylor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CyderInACan Posted February 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 Had it not been for the arrival Nicky Morgan (with or without his, umm, organ) after the loss through injury of the very Bob Taylor you speak of, the season could've ended so so very differently!

You're right, of course. But I was still gutted that Bob eventually got pushed out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the catalyst that saw the eventual exit of my favourite ever City player, Bob Taylor. Whilst I still mourn the loss of Super Bob, Morgan done a fantastic job here. My old man said apart from Dalglish he'd never seen a footballer use his backside so well. Once he had that ball at his feet, and his back to goal, there was no getting it off him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
