@savehulmehip followers of the Hipp know variety is the spice of life but blimey ! June 1923 saw a week of opera. Imperial Light Opera Company. 5 operas over 6 nights. The Lily of Killarney on Wednesday sure to have delight Broadhead's Irish audience. Based on Boucicault play.

Wondering how Scotland went on last night. You might have expected one of the news bulletins to have mentioned it.

@Glenn_WHU64 @TheGeoffHurst Gordon lived in our village after he retired. Always happy to chat about the game. A lovely bloke. Much missed hereabouts.

@neeran Remember the days when you entered competitions by answering questions and submitting your entry on a postcard. Many so called "competitions" are just a phone call costing pounds. You could make your choice of BBC sports person. Noway you get to pick one of their choices.

@MsPocketRocket It's Angels. Funny enough one of the actors involved, possibly Judith Jacobs, is currently appearing in a advert for a charity caring for the terminally ill. She plays a Nurse !

@PeacemakingSt In the original book what was the name of the family ?

Gordon Banks shows the referee exactly where Martin Chivers caught him.
The cheek of it.
Big Match Revisited this morning.

@_MancityGee Still there. On the stage with Pep last week. Great player and a very decent bloke.

[Jeff Hill @madeleyblue]

@onioncityblues John White ! That takes me back. Thanks for the reminder.

The esteemed sports journalist Oliver Holt produced a list of "The 100 greatest footballers of all time" but failed to include "The King of the Kippax". There are many players listed he can not possibly have seen play.
Brace yourself, Norman Whiteside makes the list !!

Waggy laying on another goal for John Richards. Whenever l see him l can't help but think how good he would have been with Mercer and Allison .

@wizzo3333 I saw Glyn make his debut. Night match v Birm. Lost 4:1 if memory serves. Up against Trevor Smith an England International who had played against City in Cup Final in 56. Glyn hardly had a touch. What a servant he was. Best right footed left back l've ever seen.

[Jeff Hill @madeleyblue]

@LifeOfBoch "IF" doing a lot of heavy lifting there.

[Jeff Hill @madeleyblue]

City line up today could run the strap line. "For Sale". #mcfc

[Jeff Hill @madeleyblue]

Fancy meeting you here.

@archivetvmus71 Filmed in and around the Potteries. Corrie stalwart David Neilson aka Roy Cropper was a fellow pot bank worker.

@bifana_bifana Reviewing my aches and pains with the quack last week. Spoke about football and she insisted "You must keep going".
Doctor's orders.

New squad number for Sunday !

[Jeff Hill @madeleyblue]

@mspinks10 It's a different world to the "Brian who" days. That said Horton played decent football. Keeping well enough. I was 80 yesterday and trying to see it as a milestone not a millstone. Cheers.

[Jeff Hill @madeleyblue]

@mspinks10 Martin, l think l had a message from you but lost it in seconds. Me and technology are not on same wave length. Trust you are well. Are you at match on Sunday ?
