    City on tv this evening

    For those of you interested we figure on the Big Match revisited this afternoon.

    The match in question is Sunderland visiting Ninian in 1980 .

    They had either just been promoted or needed a result to go up , I can’t remember which.
    However , I do remember there were thousands of the buggers there and one of them tried to knick my scarf.

    Sunderland we’re given all of the ground bar the Bob Bank that day if I remember rightly. It was our last match of the season, but Sunderland still had another one left to play and I believe their promotion was confirmed in that game.

    Is this the one where we cashed in by putting the price up for away fans for one day only

    Cheers for the post. I never would have seen that on the TV guide. Ninian park pitch looked great even back then.

    Was the match delayed because Ron Jones had staff putting 50p signs next to the regular admission price signs? Or am I way off the mark?

    I'm thinking this was my first City game. My brain is addled at this stage. I was also on the bob bank for Buchanan's Exocet, and wondering if that was earlier than this.

    Didn’t see the show but was this game 1-1? We stopped them going up that day? They brought over 10000 I think.

    Yes it was, I think the game with the jacks was about six months later.

    Yes, it finished 1-1, but Sunderland were promoted a few days later.

    Well, apart from the Jacks game, I saw our p/o final was being reshown.
    Not the QPR one, but the Wembley one. You look for it if you're a masochist.
    Can't bring myself to search for it again. (It might even have been yesterday, I blotted it out)
