Wasn’t it fantastic to see them and hear what it meant to everybody, players and fans alike. All of them saying it was the best bunch of lads they’d played with in their career.

I think it was Jack Scott and his partner. I used to work in the same office in Manchester. Remember him saying it was all kicking off on his website when it was going pear shaped under Moores.

It is actually 41 years today, died whilst watching a World Cup game in 1978. Very sad day, the best entertainer I have seen at BP along with Stitch.

Beyond belief........like thinking you've bought a house and found you've only bought the garden. Perhaps he thought he was getting a bargain. No idea why due diligence took so long, what on earth were they checking - now turns out he wasn't buying what he thought and has debts that he was unaware of. Couldn't make this up. However he passed the EFL's "Fit & Proper" test which is reassuring

Sorry to hear the passing of Bernard the former Latics Secretary. I had the good fortune of meeting Bernard maybe 10 years ago in a work capacity and he was such a nice guy. Although associated with City for the past 40 years he still followed Latics and had many a story to tell of his time here. RIP Bernard, a true gentleman

Jimmy Carter Sinaed O'Connor Bill Wyman Shane MacGowan Nobby Stiles (Capt) Bobby Charlton Norman Tebbit Linda Nolan Joni Mitchell Clive James Had to make sure a few of these hadn't already checked out already

Might be as well to keep his mouth shut. He's just been fired for breach of contract and would suspect if he continues his twitter rants he'll be in breach of his contract again at CUFC. Can't imagine his new employers would be happy with him slagging off another club whilst representing them. With no appeal against his sacking I would imagine the PFA have thought he hasn't got a leg to stand on so to speak,

Think you've aged him - 89 at the last count. Looking for a Brucie bonus this week

Really sorry to hear this. I consider Futch & Richard Jobson the two finest centre halves I have seen at the club. A true footballing centre half. RIP Futch

Knew that better than my ABC in school ! Harry was the first Latics goalie I remember when I first started going in '72. Goalies just never ventured outside the box in those days......except Harry. Apparently he was a plumber by trade and had little interest in football.

Some of these bring back great memories - one that hasn't been mentioned I don't think is Stainrods goal at Blackburn on his debut - beat the Blackburn defence on the by-line and then scored from an impossible angle. Marshalls goal v Notts County was probably the hardest shot I've ever seen live - seem to remember he said he hit it so hard cos he was angry - had we just conceded a late equliser ?

6 in second half v Plymouth - 1972 I think

Yes 1-1 at HT. 6 goals at the Chaddy End second half.
