Drew 0-0 with Man City on 25/3/72 the day I was born. We were at home as well while I was being born in the general.

The day before I was born we beat Leicester 2-0, then won the next two, not bad in a relegation season.

 

I was looking at that mate and I was thinking you must have been born in the only bright patch of that season-three wins on the belt in that early December.

 

Without bothering to look into it, I'm confident I was born during the club's worst run of form in it's entire history. Feel like Eeyore ffs.

Haha aye, if you include the FA Cup and the start of the next season, you were in the middle of a run which didn't produce a win for 24 games. Fuckin hell even the mackems in 2006 bettered that.

Aye but the season before (the one i counted as I was born in June 77) we finished 5th narrowly losing out on 4th, thats not a bad run, it seems there was some kind of upheavel after the 76/77 season as we go on to have a shocking period

Gordon Lee left and the players "forced" the club to appoint his assistant - Richard Dinnis - who was shit. Following relegation Bill McGarry was aoppointed with the remit to get rid of all the troublemakers.
