Here’s a brief flashback piece published in the Halifax Evening Courier in January 1990 remembering a story from ten years earlier. It claims Manchester City fans in a car stole a football and references the famous 1980 FA Cup tie which City lost at Halifax as part of its story.
If you’d like a reminder of what had happened at Halifax Town in the FA Cup in January 1980 then why not read this 4,220 word article on the entire 1979-80 season – a season which saw heroes leave and spending get ridiculous!). My article, like the other indepth pieces, contains material from interviews I have performed with many of the key figures – chairman, managers, players and others. This is available to subscribers below. Enjoy!
