    Ivor Powell ?

That was our great year but Man City had a great team too with the likes of Bell, Summerbee, Hartford, Lee, Tueart, Kidd and Corrigan. As a kid, climbing the steps on SAR and seeing the pitch for the first time in real life was an awe-inspiring memory that will live with me forever.
        Ha, how about that! Think it was 2-0 to us!

              Dad took me to my first ever game when we beat Spurs 4-1 at home, 92 or 93 I believe. The ball landed at my feet and being a 6 year old I picked it up. We were sitting right behind the goal. Tony Roberts came up to me and I handed him the ball. He gave me a thumbs up and said cheers mate, and I've been hooked since.

                  Went to visit my dads uncle Paddy in Wyborne way as a tiny little boy and was presented with a bundle of QPR programmes ( the whole family were hoops) and that was that......

                  First actual game was Chelsea away when we were both threatened with relegation and the half time music was Gloria Gaynors 'I will survive '.....
