      I’m a year older (but not necessarily wiser) than you HH. My first game was also in 1970 – European Cup Winners cup v. SK Leirse.

        Nil@10:11pm look in the mirror Nil your post on Wednesday night of “BRILLIANT” after City had got so controversially knocked out of the CL was out of order and you would have had an epi had the boot been on the other foot.

          gj – who the hell are SK Leirse? I can’t even guess the country! My game was crystal Palace on a Friday night, the night before the Grand National, no Sunday football in those days. Hooked ever since!!

            “…..you would have had an epi had the boot been on the other foot”.
            That one made me giggle, Nine.
            Nil, not too sure you should be getting “worked up” about football mate, it’s only a game, end of. There are things far more important in life.

              999- I didn’t see Nil’s post the other night but you’ve got to be able to express your feelindgs at the end of a game. This is a site for all fans, and is great for it being that way and it is not as though Nil went on a City page to wind people up. Other fans celebrate defeats of rivals all the time and as long as it doesn’t get personal or vitriolic, surely that’s what this site is all about. Mind you I didn’t see the post and Nil does have previous and he would have reacted if the boot was on the other foot.

              But anyway Brian, come back pal, we want your words of wisdom and good sense

                HH – they were a Belgian side. Wiki says “often simply known as Lierse, was a Belgian professional football club from the city of Lier in the Antwerp province”. Apparently they were ‘dissolved’ in May 2018!!!!!!
                It was a ECWC 2nd round. Also went to the QF v. Academica de Coimbra from Portugal – another giant of European football ? and the SF v. Shalke.

                  Wow! So City were even getting easy draws in 1970 (smiley face). My first European game was in about 1974 I think against Dynamo DResden. Do you still go to games now? Are you still In Manchester?

                    Yes mate, ST holder, go with my son and a few mates. All the home games and a few aways – not as many as I used to go to.
                    Live in Worsely, west part of Greater Manchester – close to East Lancs Road which links our two great cities.
                    And you?

                        “Easy draws” ?
                        Dynamo Dresden???? From the old East Germany, I think?

                            Yeah but Dynamo Dresden would have had all the benefits of the old East German government support. Top side of their day!!!!!

                              Nothing there what so ever.

                              Emotions that driven me in the moment of the game that remined me of United what I had to experience.

                              I’ve never been a wind up merchant compared to daily ‘know it alls’ and high horses.

                              I mean who are these people? And whenever I’ve raised something football orientated, I’ve rarely experienced agreement or common ground, though I get on with it.

                                      Anyway, my candid thoughts. There are I’m sure plenty of other Topics of Discussion to get involved in.

                                      Well, Championship coming to an end and Leeds are slightly falling short of Automatic Promotion.

                                        I was in the Boundary on wed watching the games, Liverpool and City, and it was full of United knobs winding their City mates up. Don’t like the pub but it’s my closest. Woodside any day!

                                          Too many United fans (loose terminology)?

                                            I would say I’ll meet to watch your game tomorrow, but I guess you’ll be going to it?
