My memory may be playing tricks but I thought the original date for the game was earlier in the season. It got rained off and rearranged for 2nd May (and the rest is history). That’s why I had a ticket. Am I wrong? Totally correct, originally due to be played in January IIRC when City were winning everything and we went through a bad spell. The match day programme was the original one (why waste it as we had no money) with a wrap around showing our latest team photo with Saunders, Kelly and Bloomer and less Martyn and Penrice. Still got it in the attic. Yes, if the game had been played first time around I'm not so sure it would have turned out like that. My recollection is that it was postponed due to a fire in the stand. I think it was Sh'eds that did it. I do love a bit of Karma.

A school friend was very miffed at the time as they were in the ascendancy and we were facing defeat (not that it stopped us before though 😊). The arsen was later in the year when some fans stopped off on the way back from an away game.
