davieG Posted 23 April 2013 Posted 23 April 2013 Davie Gibson City legend Davie Gibson will be in the City Fanstore from 5.30pm this Friday 26 April signing his new book ‘Gibbo’ ahead of City’s final home league game of the season against Watford. The book coincides with the fiftieth anniversary of Davie’s appearance in the 1963 FA Cup final against Manchester United and the emergence of City’s ‘Ice Kings’ under Manager Matt Gillies during the Big Freeze. Davie’s illustrious career with the Foxes earned him seven caps for Scotland during a period of fierce competition. He describes his international career in detail with his National Service and time at Hibernian, Aston Villa and Exeter also fully charted, together with life after football. Davie was a lively character and his story regales humorous tales of some of the great names in football with his rich anecdotes providing a captivating glimpse of life as a professional during the 1960s and 1970s. If you are unable to get down to the City Fanstore this Friday, then there are still tickets available for the latest Heritage this Sunday 28 April (2pm) with supporters getting the opportunity to join Davie Gibson and Friends in the Banks Lounge at King Power Stadium. As well as Davie Gibson, players who will be in attendance on this Heritage Afternoon of nostalgia include World Cup Winner Gordon Banks, Frank McLintock, Richie Norman, Howard Riley, Mike Stringfellow and Bobby Roberts.
