Maine Road Memories

Manchester City's Maine Road opened almost 100 years ago today. In GT114, we take a look at how the occasion was reported on by the media of the day, along with some great archive photos and newspaper reports. GT114 can be purchased here: groundtastic.co.uk

That is some miss by the Milan lad.

Central League… #MCFC vs #BuryFC 1962/3 #BuryFC vs #MCFC 1964/5

One of the first shirts with the club badge in the centre. What a kit.

The memories - 24 years ago today - a game that lives on in the history of the club forever & the minds of every blue who experienced the roller-coaster of emotions that day. So grateful for every player that dug in so deep that day - who knows where we would be without you 💛💙

20 years ago today we said goodbye to Maine Road. Gone but not forgotten.

Imagine being banged up in prison for 9+ years for a crime (murder) you didn’t commit. My mate Jason doesn’t have to, he lives it every day. Even the victim’s family know he didn’t do it & have told the police so. It’s heartbreaking. Please give him a follow at @FreeJasonMoore
