What was the first game that you ever attended?
It was Manchester City against Huddersfield Town in 1987. I must have been about nine years old at the time. I always had a big family of City followers, so I was probably always going to be a blue rather than a red, but it was confirmed after this match as we won 10-1! I was with my uncle at the back of the North Stand at Maine Road. It doesn’t get much better than that for a first game. Back then, this sort of scoreline was unheard of for City fans.
Who was your childhood hero, and did you ever meet them?
I had a load of heroes – Ian Brightwell, Andy Morrison, Paul Lake, Paul Dickov,
