I was thinking of the goal that Everton scored at NP in the FA Cup which to this day I’m convinced was off side 🙄

Yesterday, I decided to make a start in thinning out assorted clothes and junk in what is euphemistically called a third bedroom and I came across some old City programmes, the one on the top of the pile being City v Millwall, dated 22nd August 1970.
The cover price was a round shilling (5p to the whippersnappers on here)
There are ads in it advertising the sale of new houses in Caerphilly, Newport and Swansea - all for less than £4,000
The 'Football League Review' insert refers to the 'first piece of football sponsorship' i.e. 'The Watney Cup'
The Review also states that only 12 of the Football League's clubs made a profit 'last year'
and last but not least.....
The programme's main editorial is by City's Chairman, Fred Dewey, who 'has made it clear he is in favour of the birch being brought back for the use against football hooligans'.
