He didn't break his neck in '55, it was the year after. Probably talking about Jimmy Meadows being stretchered of for Citeh early in the match with there being no subs in those days it made it a bit one-sided.

I'll tell you because it's something you either no or you don't and can't be googled. We beat York to go through to the final, and the mackems missed a last minute pen in theirs against Man City who went up the other end of the pitch and scored and won 1-0. So that's how close we were to an FA Cup Final between Newcastle United and Sunderland.

[Craig 6700]

I never realised Citeh played Sunderland in the semis I have to admit.
