Lew-T Posted November 23, 2017 Report Share Posted November 23, 2017 This was my first ever City away game. I was 8! I wanted to leave at 4-2 as I was ‘bored’ but my old man said no. Glad he did! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swede Posted November 23, 2017 Report Share Posted November 23, 2017 Especially as the sags were beaten by a team in their own kit!!! Cue that video of the goal with the laughing policeman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ballwinningcentrehalf Posted November 23, 2017 Report Share Posted November 23, 2017 I remember travelling back on CATS after an evening away game (fairly sure we'd lost as the mood was poor), where someone had brought the VHS of the full match to play on the journey home to cheer us up. The excitement was building throughout, waiting for that glorious moment when Roberts would lash in the winner and we could forget about the match we'd just travelled to see. Unfortunately, the tape had obviously been rewound and played at that point so many times that the moment it was played into Christian's feet at the edge of the box the picture and sound distorted horribly, only going back to normal about 30 seconds later after the wild celebrations The anti-climax was worse than seeing us concede a goal. I think I turned towards the window in disgust and slept out the remainder of the journey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Offside Posted November 23, 2017 Report Share Posted November 23, 2017 What a fantastic game that was, with a feisty atmosphere too. Those last few minutes were unbelieveable. Absolute mayhem in the away end. The journey home was a blur. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weepywall Posted November 23, 2017 Report Share Posted November 23, 2017 I got thrown out at halftime went for a couple of pints and got back in when the gates opened 10 minutes from the end best 65 minutes of football I've ever seen !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

22A Posted November 23, 2017 Report Share Posted November 23, 2017 I collected my son from London Rd where he'd been watching the Posh. He grumbled that as City had lost to Mansfield, that meant P'boro' were bottom of the league. When we got in, I turned on the TV to see that Mansfield were bottom, so hurriedly checked the scores as City had been 4-2 down when I left home. Unbelievable! Thinking about it, that game makes up for Wembley in 1987. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BanburyRed Posted November 23, 2017 Report Share Posted November 23, 2017 What a game, what a fightback! You had to be there to experience the outright euphoria when Christian scored - pandemonium in the away end, talk about 'let's go ****ing mental!'...chaos! I remember falling over some seats celebrating i think but couldn't care less. And it was a bit feisty outside.... Life has gone full circle in strange ways, my young daughter lives in Mansfield and i visit every weekend, when i see the ground it brings back that game as if it was yesterday!

Rememeber walking out at FT with my two mates and getting verbal abuse from one of their fans who called us a bunch of cheating bastards. I pointed out that at 4-4 their fans threw the ball to the back of the stand to waste time. Had they not done so I’m fairly certain the ref would have blown up. The limbs in the away end unreal. Only thing that’s come as close was when Nobes banged one in at Palace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
