I was there also. Those were the days that I managed 40 league games a season.........never managing to get to the magic 42. Now it's one or two a season (and none in the last two years) Here is the goal from Joe
1397 23.11.68 Royle v Leeds (A) FIRST IN SEQUENCE - Joe Royle dives to head the ball almost out of Gary Sprake's hands into the Leeds net (2)
I was right behind that goal in the Leeds shed end full of blues fans with my older brother & his mates - we had a great footbal side they were a good side but dirty .....
That goal is on YouTube - Bally chipped it in Leeds keeper Sprake thought it was an easy catch - Joe thought otherwise with a sidewards sprint with his horrizontal dive to back head the ball over the keepers shoulder a fantastic goal......
It was on MOTD if there had been a goal of the season in those days that was it ,- thanks for that great photo

Contrary to popular belief, Mike Walker did win something while with us - I have proof. Here he is with a Duerr's jam award for escaping relegation. History does not record how much toilet roll he received after leaving us in the sh*t in November 1994

Put a spring back in my step, too, Joey. Fantastic goal in what was a brilliant match.Brilliant
