Quote: Mirfieldbull "Memory from the deep dark past says the last time we played York away first up, was 1973/74, our 1st game in div. 2 after relegation. I remember we lost as a certain Colin Forsythe murdered us. We signed him up sfter the game, when I clearly remember Albert Fearnley (coach at the time) running onto the pitch and shake his hand and walk off the pitch with him, the most blatant tapping up I'd ever seen!!
Result of that season was promotion and signing a Bradford legend, be good if lightning struck twice (even accept a defeat!!!)
I know the result and signing Forsythe was true, but not 100% sure if was first game of the season, and can't find historic fixtures anywhere. Be good to know if my memory is good or wrong if anyone can help'"
I was at that game too but as an eleven year old at the time my memory of it even more hazy than yours!
