    I think he's a bit old for that now.

    I nearly fell off my chair with that one.

    I was at that game and we lost. Bobby Woodruff also scored a corker.

    The best City goal I've ever seen. I was in the Grange End that game.

    The crowd shots (in the full highlights of the 3-4 defeat) show an amazing number of people wearing ties! Different days indeed.

    It was said that Martin Peters was 10 years ahead of his time. Peter King was 10 years ahead of Martin Peters.

    I was there, is that the greatest kit you've ever seen or what!

    Re: Peter King v Boro

    These are the highlights of the whole game

    I was standing on the Bob Bank in line with Peter King's shot - the best City goal I have seen.

    Also a cracking goal from Bobby Woodruff.

    Despite saving a penalty Fumbling Frank Parsons managed to see us off !

    Note that Middlesbrough had a Downing playing in this game and also one yesterday.

    I can't remember whether Cardiff City Legend Peter King had a testimonial ? If not, perhaps he shoud get one before Whitts.

    The world was a tougher one , more respectful , and you were morally aware of
    one's behaviour and appearance .

    God, I loved the old Grange End, those late 60s/early 70s days eh! You had to be there, hard to describe. Would love to do a ‘Gary Sparrow’ and go back and have 90 minutes on there again.

    My favourite ever goal too, what a match and what an atmosphere, shame about the score mind!

    Re: Peter King v Boro

    I was in the Canton stand as a 15 year old. Those goals were at the other end. We were 3-1 up and Frank Parsons saved a penalty too, and then we lost 3-4. Amazing game in front of 20,000+ fans. Frank was dropped after that game not surprisingly, he seemed to lack confidence anyway. Jim Eadie came in and the following year we signed Bill Irwin.

    As someone who is too young to have seen Peter King play for City what kind of player was he?

    One of my all time favourites. Midfielder with a great touch. Scored a hat-trick against Preston in a home game, rare for a midfielder. Rarely heard a fan criticise him.

    Sounds like Whitts, minus the “rarely heard a fan criticise him” of course

    I've heard fans say 'his legs have gone.' He never had the legs to run around all game. He wasn't that type of player.
    If I was to pick an all time favourite squad, King and Whitts would be in it.
