17 Oct 2002. He scored twice in a 2-1 win at Ninian Park. I remember it. Incredible goal. Still, for me, not as good as an Earnshaw strike against Stoke where he controlled it on his shoulder and unleashed a volley from 30 yards. Had that been in the Premier League, that would have been shown time and time again.Quote:

Actually, six years earlier in March 1960 we were 3-0 up against them at The Vetch with half an hour to go but ended up drawing 3-3. They scored three in seven minutes with ex City player Brayley Reynolds scoring twice.Quote:

We had a streaker.
Sam Hammam came to stand with fans on the GE for a while.
I just managed to duck a shot that whistled over the bar. When I turned to see where it had gone there was a bloke sparked out on his back with blood streaming from his nose.
Watching Peter Zois's one and only "magnificent" game for The City! 2-2 draw on a Tuesday night. Forget who the opponents were. Bet they couldn't believe their luck, with him in goals. Come back Frank Parsons, all was forgiven that night!
Did the tannoy announcer leave the microphone on during one game while they tried to get off with someone or did I imagine it?
Remember that would love to know what went on that night:hehe:Quote:

Tanoy announcer asking the Millwall WUM from on this messageboard (can't remember his name after 20 years) to stand up and give us a wave :wave: from the Canton Stand at half time in the infamous game from 1999.
Colchester away when some lads were giving the "you fat bastard" chant at some biker looking chap in the home end to our left. At half time they bought him a burger and sent it over with a steward. He seemed to enjoy it.
Singing Men of Harlech when we were down to 10 men away to Cambridge because it wasike Rourkes Drift. We held on for the draw. Was that the first time we did the whole Men of Harlech thing? Great bacon rolls at Cambridge.
Down to 8 men by the end weren’t we? John Hallworth saved a penalty too.Quote:
