My Top Five Wins
Fri Feb 24, 2012 1:58 pm
Over the 44 years I have supported City I have seen some great wins, in no particular order here are my top five.
1.Leeds FA Cup 2-1 Scott Young. Brilliant atmosphere. Phoned Talksport and had argument with Alan Brazil over bottle throwing and David O'Leary' s sour grapes"Beirut" comments. i think we scared the life out of the Leeds team that day. Unforgettable.
2.Derby away 3-2 Baseball Ground Ian Baird 2 Phil Dwyer. My mate filled petrol car up with diesel in Derby, didn't make it off the forecourt! not funny at the time but 5 of us in the Ford Escort now have a right laugh about it.
3. I think Luton 3-1 Robin Friday scoring past Milija Aleksic ex Spurs keeper at Canton end and tossing vics at him. I was in the enclosure and think it was a Saturday morning or lunchtime kick off? Didn't realise how famous that would become!
4. Wrexham FA Cup 3-2. John Buchanan scoring winner in injury time just after Wrexham pegged us back to 2-2. Fantastic atmosphere with the whole Grandstand chanting Cardiff!!!!! Cardiff!!!! There with my dad who has now passed on.
5. Barnsley 1-0 FA Cup semi final. Great atmosphere on my first visit to Wembley for a City game with all my family and another Wembley visit to plan.
Stuff that most dreams are made of. Dreaming of win No 6 on Sunday.
