Katie Borkins 1 Posted October 7, 2013 Right. Well, that looks like Norwich City versus Stoke City to me, that would have been the 1980-81 season because they changed that "Mann Egerton" sign the following season and my brother Jack used to work there before he ended up with them poor old buggers at Boulton & Paul and they all got laid off. He ended up in Telford but would have better off under a truck. That was a big home win, 4-1 or so. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The other City player looks a bit like Joe Royle and is that Lee Chapman marking him.Judging by the stands it looks like a gate of under 15k Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mungo Lloyd 0 Posted October 7, 2013 [quote user="Doctorsleep"]"This is either very easy or I''m hopelessly wrong."eh?[/quote]It was very easy ie a game of my generation that I attended and which was also quite memorable for the scoreline, the date (16th august) of course was easily remembered as being both the anniversary of the Peterloo massacre and the exact day upon which Jools Holland quit Squeeze (16/08/80).I usually lack access to such aide memoirs as City 1st likes to pose questions from before my time. The tricky bit was remembering if Southampton were still in the R/W vertical stripes and in the same league that year or what colour shorts they wore.Attendance was 14,616 BTW Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

John Bond must have been the manager so by a process of elimination it''s City''s second season in Div 1........1973/74.Can''t remember the score but I think it''s one of the few games we won that season.It must be Keelan in goal (although hidden) but who is that next to him? Could it be Colin Prophett? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think he is the chap on the inside side of the goalie. That match was Germany vs England in Berlin in 1938, with the England players, as shown, doing the Hitler Salute. Matthews played for Stoke in a 6-0 defeat at Carrow Road in the 1962-63 season, which gets all the attention, but had appeared the season before. Terry Allcock scored the only goal.
