My dad was at the game and he told me that 3 things stuck in his mind about the game, firstly the Wolves team was full of really talented players and superior in most positions on the pitch, secondly it was one of those days for Wolves in that everything they tried and the run of ball went in their favour and thirdly our centre half Colin Gale was completely out of his depth. The City had a problem at centre half in that stalwart Stan Montgomery had finished and it was not resolved until Danny Malloy was signed 3 months after this game. Gale only played a handful of games for the City and most were at full back. Wolves were a huge draw in those days, the previous home game against Bolton attracted a crowd of 25,000. The crowd for the 9-1 defeat to Wolves was 45,000. It turned out to be Colin Gale's last game for the City.
