Fez of Mahrez Posted 27 September 2009 Posted 27 September 2009 Anyone know any? I fancy doing an interview for Vital Football. Preferably someone a bit more low-key (we've already heard everything about Walsh or Worthington for example) or from an earlier period in the clubs history than we are used to hearing about. Anyone at all you vaguely know or could suggest would be much appreciated. Thanks.
Bert Posted 27 September 2009 Posted 27 September 2009 Maybe Joachim? You could probably track him down at Quorn....
Salieri Posted 27 September 2009 Posted 27 September 2009 Maybe Joachim? You could probably track him down at Quorn.... Unfortunately not the most erudite of people you're ever likely to meet. Still love the bloke though.
Zingari Posted 27 September 2009 Posted 27 September 2009 Bobby Roberts is up Braggy Park most Sunday mornings for a long walk around 10 ish , (you'd still recognise him from his playing days) and I'm sure he would be able to furnish you with some good stories from one of our golden periods

Thanks. might be worth compiling a list of questions and emailing them to Peter Jones asking if he could forward them on to Taggart... he has always seemed a decent bloke... he came close to Hero Status for me....

No point in sending anything to Peter, he no longer works at City.
MPH Posted 28 September 2009 Posted 28 September 2009 No point in sending anything to Peter, he no longer works at City. just read that in another thread.... we had a couple of kids in the children's intensive care Unit who were big City fans.... he was able to sort a few things out. liked him
DANGEROUS TIGER Posted 28 September 2009 Posted 28 September 2009 Bobby Roberts is up Braggy Park most Sunday mornings for a long walk around 10 ish , (you'd still recognise him from his playing days) and I'm sure he would be able to furnish you with some good stories from one of our golden periods I agree, Bobby was a great right half, who like his predicessor Frank Mclintock, was a full blooded Scot, dominating in defence. If my memory serves me right, he cost us £40,000, from Motherwell. In the early sixties we had what was generally considered the best half back line in the country. Frank Mclintock, Ian King, and Colin Appleton. The grand total cost of bringing them to the club was £30. Just a ten pound signing on fee for each player!
Thracian Posted 28 September 2009 Posted 28 September 2009 Speaking to Peter Shilton the other night I mentioned a teenager called Tony Mathers who helped him practice his angles in the gymnasium under the Filbert Street centre-stand. It was 44 years ago. Tony later got hurt in a car accident and disappeared from the scene so I doubted anyone left at the club would recall his name now. Peter surprised me though. "Sure, I remember him," he said. "Ex-Blaby Boys Club".
Ross-Kemp Posted 28 September 2009 Posted 28 September 2009 Maybe Joachim? You could probably track him down at Quorn.... Decent bloke, keeps himself to himself. Was at my uncles boozer saturday night for a charity night with Gary Mills and Paul Ramsey (who was absolutley shit faced) Joachim was happy to pose for photos and the like, didn't seem to impressed when he was made to sing on karaoke.

Ross-Kemp Posted 28 September 2009 Posted 28 September 2009 used to like him.but not in a gay way. Seemed a decent bloke, came in with his Tamworth tracksuit on, had a few beers, had a sing song for charity and fooked off

Saw Ramsey last saturday morning in Town Hall Square with his little boy. Looks like he keeps in shape anyone know if he's coaching anywhere?
MPH Posted 28 September 2009 Posted 28 September 2009 Right said Fez... so whats the plan? are you going to do a one off interview? what about having a set format of questions and a " where are they now" section of vital - or even here and try and get them out to every ex city player you know or hear of wether its 40 years ago or 4... just an idea...
lavrentis Posted 29 September 2009 Posted 29 September 2009 A year ago I could have spoken to Wallington anyday but now It's a long shot but Ill see if I can get anything.
