Gillie,
If it wasn't for Kath, I'd have no need to take the fuclers off in the 1st place.
Anyway....the game you are seeking took place at Maine Road on 4th March 1961. The rags won 3-1. Alex Dawson scored their 1st with his hand. City full back Barry Betts missed a penalty for City, then Charlton scored their 2nd. Dave Wagstaffe made it 2-1 (should have been 1-1) and Pearson got their 3rd.
Interesting team that night, A very young Steve Fleet (was part of the Academy set up recently) replaced Bert Trautmann (not sure why), Lievers, Betts, Shawcross, Plenderleith, A very very young Alan Oakes, Colbridge, Hannah, Barlow (the same who was part of the Frannie Lee takeover, Wagstaffe.....and a very young DENIS LAW.
It was only a couple of months after my very 1st trip to the swamp to see my hero Bert let in 5 goals. Shitter of a day.
Chapter n verse.....another satified customer....bill at the end of the month...now for the pisstakes.
I KNOW THAT YOU BELIEVE THAT YOU UNDERSTOOD WHAT YOU THINK I WROTE, BUT I AM NOT SURE YOU REALISE THAT WHAT YOU READ IS NOT WHAT I MEANT
