Here’s film of the first goal that Steve Daley scored for Manchester City (scored on 17 November 1979). The player had received some criticism following his expensive transfer (a little less than £1.5m) to City and you can see on this clip how delighted he was to score his first MCFC goal. It was scored from the edge of the area against Bolton at Burden Park. The game ended 1-0.
A few years ago I performed an interview with Steve about this time. We discussed his transfer, City fans and the spending City were doing at the time we did the interview. It was great interviewing Steve and I enjoyed it immensely, helping fill in some gaps.
