A 1-0 win against a Southampton side featuring Peter Shilton making his debut, Mark Wright, Alan Ball and Justin Fashanu.

Steve Whitton was our goal scorer

This is some sort of elaborate phishing scheme, Fernando just wants your d.o.b and before you know it, he's ordering sandwich toasters from AO in your name.

Incidentally mine was a 2-1 win against Norwich, last game of the season in 1984.

Is anybody's mother's maiden name similar to an ex City player?

What are you getting at here? Are you trying to find out who could be a lovechild of city players?

Mine's Ndlovu!

Born July 1966 and it’s England’s opener v Uruguay and it’s a 0-0 in front of a packed Wembley Stadium. My dad not even bother with my coming into the World has a day watching England at Wembley with his best man Stan Ward. I can’t say I blame home as I was his 4th son born.

Cov 3 - 1 Bolton, September 79

Good thread!

 

[ajsccfc]

My birth is surrounded by wins over Arsenal, Leicester and Man Utd (twice), but the nearest is of course the 2-0 defeat at Ipswich.

 

[skybluetony176]

Before. A 4-1 away win at Leyton Orient. After. A 1-1 home draw to Man U. It was a good year to be a Cov fan.

 

[King of the Lesbians]

3-2 victory against ManC in 3rd round of League Cup at Maine Road.
Baggies smashed us 6-1 next round after holding us to a 1-1 draw at our gaff.

 

[sky blue john]

Cursed even at birth.
Nearest match was a 3-0 loss away at sheffield wednesday!

 

[Cranfield Sky Blue]

Workington v Coventry City
Drew 2-2

[Otis]

Not entirely sure, but think it was an 13-2 defeat to Old Etonians.

Sewing machines for goalposts?

 

[stevefloyd]

what the hell you supposed to do?

 

[Otis]

Sewing machines for goalposts?

There's an argument as to when exactly I was born and also if.

 

[M&B Stand]

0-4 Newcastle Utd

 

[mark82]

I'm sandwiched between a 2-0 home victory against Brighton and a 3-0 away win at West Ham.

Indeed.

I find it hard to guage, because when I was born football was played in black and white.

When I was born we were FA Cup holders, I might top myself when we're FA Vase holders for the symmetry.
