I remember managing to get tickets in the home stand, we were then moved out of the home area, and then put back in the home section but further away from some Nottingham Forest lunatics who came to the game. Both ends behind the goals were closed for some reason. As we got in the car afterwards we heard about Jimmy Glass's last minute antics to keep Carlisle up!
If it’s the game I’m thinking about we got moved because part of their ground was condemned, Iyesden (sp) Christie had an absolute worldy for them and we were in fancy dress - Eric the Red dressed as Hilda Ogden and me and my mate dressed as the Blues Brothers…made the scrapping quite funny, different times :hehe:
We were two different teams that season, pre Delaney to Villa and post Delaney to Villa - there was quite a difference between the two.
Always thought that Delaney was such an accomplished player and had an assurance on the ball which I hadn’t seen at the City since Gary Bell, a pity that injuries curtailed his career.
