I have absolutely no memory of any City match from 1985-86. The same for 1984-85. I do remember games from 1980 but the two relegation seasons I have nothing. 1985-86 nust have been terrible for City supporters as that was the second successive relegation and the first time to the fourth division. We didn't recover until 2003.

I can't remember much, a very busy time for me personally,,met my first wife, & managed a busy supermarket then.
City relegated to the dungeon, & four home "Derby" games. Remember Wolves at home, nearly 2500 at NP.
