I actually took this to the Canton pub about 3 home games ago, to see if anyone could find me
I'd say a few current City fans were there ..

I think there was a ladder from one of the rear gardens which could be used but it was a heck of a long way up. I used to park my bike for about a penny at one of the houses in Sloper Road.
Still a young Bluebird then, with so much success ahead for you to enjoy, as the City progresses to its ultimate greatness.Quote:
