1952 - 1958 -- The Old Five .. the Banthams! Braod Blue and White Stripes. Far better than the poncy Sky Blue ! Wish we could go back to being the Banthams and the 1952 kit !

 

[skyblueexile]

this victor meldrew goes back to 57/58 - yes I am an old git OF 63 saw first match aged 8.5

I can even remember the highfield road slope lightening and more :claping hands: so much success

due to illness don't get very often BUT I BELIEVE THIS SEASON WE WILL TURN THE CORNER

PUSB :wave:

"Aye Aye Aye Aye ,Glazier is better then Yashin,Gibson is better than Eusabio and you are in for a thrashin"------ Crap song but sounded great singing in the middle of the West End. That must make my early visits in the late 60s . Dont know what the strip was like, sky blue at a guess. Didnt see a lot of football in the early years , im only short and it used to get packed on the terraces . Ian Gibson true hero

 

[blueflint]

1954 til now :thinking about::thinking about::thinking about::thinking about:

 

[SkyblueDave89]

Lads in Manchester take the piss over our brown away kit so glad they didn't see the Green & Red kit from 1922-24!! God we've gone on to look like Sheffield Wed, Blackburn & dirty Leeds thank god for Jimmy Hill! My 1st kit & game 1968 still the best kit in my eyes, remember my dad having to make a stool to take with us so I could see the game from the Kop, also remember every team had star players.

 

[valiant15]

I'm not sure who my first home game was against but my first away game was blackburn in 79ish,i think it was a cup game,we lost 1-0,i was about 6 years old.

 

[Houchens Head]

As usual, threads like these always throw up different reminisences. I love 'em! So many fantastic memories of some great games during our history, no matter when you started supporting the club. Come on guys (and lasses), keep 'em comin'!

 

[Oh for an Ian Gibson.]

First game 1959, white kit prior to sky blue era. Heroes of the day were Ron Hewitt, Billy Myerscough and Stewart Imlach. Happy memories of Highfield Road before it's redevelopment.

 

[torchomatic]

72/73 was my first season so this is my fortieth year. It would have been sky blue top with the black V and black shorts.

The first kit I remember having was the tramline one, I had the tracksuit too. Here I am wearing half of it at our school sports day, 1978:

 

[sylus]

my first game...14th april 73...derby county home. lost 2.0.


been hooked ever since..

 

[AlexJohnson93]

My first game was on 19 Sep 1998. City vs Newcastle. I would have been 4 years old. City lost 5-1 and Alan Shearer got a hat-trick. I fuckin' hated it, was way too loud for me. Came back for some reason though :thinking about:

Jeez that makes me feel old.

Not as old as some of the fuckers above but still old.

 

[ccfcdan]

First kit I got was the Liverpool one with candy on the front. I then started going up to Highfield road to watch the reserves for a pound. Finally started watching the first team once my paper round money started to come in.

 

[neilyboy67]

77/78 was my first regular season with the welsh kit, and through to 82/83 talbot kit hardly a home match missed so deffo my era, first away match september 1980 at man utd and im sure a nil nil draw.......god.... and i used to slag em off for being crap

 

[mozza1890]

1998 or 97 v everton... Think we lost 2-1.. Sat behind Neville southall in one of the halves!!... I was 7 or 8 at the time so not 100% sure

 

[ccfc92]

My earliest memory is David Busst's Testimonial. 90's Sky Blue Hadji, Keano etc

 

[georgehudson]

white with blue outers, roy kirk, nelson stiffle, bill myerscough, billy frith was my junior headmaster,
therefore qualify as a T.O.F.

 

[TasmanSeaSkyBlue]

Noel Cantwell era 1967 -68. Sky Blue with no badges on it, had chewing gum just inside the band around the neck. Had an Everton shirt first (Mum's from Liverpool). Needed a good one for house football at Broadway Junior Boys in Earlsdon.

 

[AngryAnt]

think the 92/93 shirt was the one i first remember...

I still think the 97/98 shirt is my fav though, love that thing.
