Big Jim Eadie

Yeah, those players who played for the City when you first started watching them, remain in your long-term memory.

I can just about remember Jim Eaddie, more so his successor, Bill Irwin. Albert Lamour, Freddie Pethard, Peter Sayer, Clive Charles...

Davies, Carver, Bell, Sutton, Murray, Harris, Jones, Clark, Lea, Toshack, Bird; Standard team for many months in 1970.

Those names just roll off the tongue for me as well

Barrie Jones broke his leg in 1969 and never played again. I heard he was a great player though.

Up at Blackpool.

Yes you are right. This was the team for the last few months of 1968. Peter King must have been injured for that period since he was usually a regular when fit.

'...bless Freddie Davies and bless Peter King, bless Barrie Jones as he streaks down the wing, bless 'em all...'
'We all agree, Davies is better than Yashin, Toshack is better than Eusebio, and Bristol are in for a thrashin'.
No sure when Peter King came along, probably slightly later, but basically that's my earliest team.
'If I had the wings of an eagle...' the good old days, the good old songs. Oh what fun we had.

Well done Steve

Peter King was the first name on the team sheet from about 1963 onwards, up until about 1972.

Converted from a winger to a quality midfielder, after the success of Ingurlund’s wingless wonders in 1966
