Guess you remember even less of the match than me, thenI was born the Sunday before
My dad told me all about it when he got home from the match I'm sureGuess you remember even less of the match than me, then
I kept my programmes and scrapbooks. I sold my model train set. I have no idea what happened to my autograph collection. It was several books, full of pictures from football magazines, with the likes of autographs of Bobby Charlton, Danny Blanchflower, etc. I suspect it disappeared while I was away at university, but I never managed to force a confession from my parents… Complete mystery. I will probably wake up one morning and remember that I sold them…The autograph, what happened to it?
Not heard of Jackie Henderson. Googled him, went to Fulham instead of us but played only 45 games for them before going to non-league.Man City pics:

what a first season for you bell can remember your first game the lane was in shock after brizzle went 3 up lol mind for me that fightback that day started our fantastic promotion push that season offNever seen this thread before - i am mezmorized by it and thank you and all contributors for their inputs . Love it and hope to add some memories of my own once i digest more from 1961 when i was born and Sept 1970 when i attended my first game at BDTBL V Bristol City , 3-3 .
Scrap books hey - wish i had my own to hand - some fantastic memories . Theres something to be said for waiting for the Green Un and poring over it all Sat night - then doing it all again on Sunday morning with the nationals only to then summarise it all in Mondays Star and Morning Telegraph.
Once again - thanks
I don’t remember any specific reasons. He was a significant signing, but never really became a strong consistent presence, largely because of injuries, was my understanding. I suppose if social media had been around then, instead of being booed by some in the crowd, he would have been abused online as a ‘wage thief’.Why was Keith Kettleborough often the target for the boo boys?

correct joe fa cup 4th round v aston villa around 63/64 he walked before the ref got within 10 yards of himI hope my memory is not letting me down about this , but I seem to recall that much of it revolved around a match where he got himself sent off early in the game for a ridiculous challenge and appeared to have deliberately done so , since he walked before the referee even approached him .
It could have been a cup match and possibly against Villa but I wouldn’t swear to either but I’m pretty sure it was him and that along with many others , I was angry at the stupidity of it and that it cost us an important match that we could have won .

I am very tolerant of misinformation on COVID vaccines, but something serious like what happened 60 years ago… that’s a different matter. The only thing I would add is that the comment on the boo boys at the Lane refers to 1961, so he must have been a target by then. I have no recollection why.Many thanks for the confirmation .
I was fairly sure I’d remembered this correctly but with folk like Silent and Hodgy around , you can never be too careful .
The sending off in the Villa Cup game was in January 1965 (we lost 2-0). He was already the target for the boo boys in 1961.I hope my memory is not letting me down about this , but I seem to recall that much of it revolved around a match where he got himself sent off early in the game for a ridiculous challenge and appeared to have deliberately done so , since he walked before the referee even approached him .
