I was there in 69 and cried at Abide with Me and again when "Nelly" God bless him scored the winner. I will be there with you all in spirit tomorrow and hope to be shedding tears of joy again. That lot will never understand how we feel about our team. Have a wonderful day!


Great post mate, I can remember 69 aswell I was'nt there but watched it with my dad and brother on a black and white tele , dancing around the room like a lunatic I was 9 years old. Happy Birthday mate hope City make it a great birthday for you.

That narrows it down.

I was there in 81 but was too young to really understand. Plus hymns don't do that much for you when you're ten years old. A little tear may sneak out during this, I fear.
Your right leg I like; I've got nothing against your right leg. The trouble is neither have you.
