Even out there I was aware from scouring the English papers for anything on City that Gary Emanuel was not exactly proving popular with City fans. By the time I got back he was already out of first team contention - left the club even? - so I never saw him play for us. He walked away after a heavy defeat at Bournemouth, 5-0 I think. Got horrendous abuse at that game for being ex-gas & pretty sure he joined Swansea soon after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NK Smith played 2 games between 82-83, there are no other N Smith listed. The other book has 2 games played by Nigel Smith that year but nothing after. Odd he's in the team photo if the book is correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you combined the worst aspects of Nicky Hunt and Ryan McGivern you wouldn`t even get close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
