Player of the week is Harry Gregg.
Born on this day in 1932, his heroic actions at the Munich air disaster in 1958 should never be forgotten.
In 1983, he was reunited with the lady and her daughter that he saved that day.
This time last year i posted this article about @mancity's 3 royal boxes. Follow the link for the story: gjfootballarchive.com/2025/1…
On this day in 1965 Malcolm Allison won his bet about attendances with Pat Crerand (follow the link): gjfootballarchive.com/2024/1…

I love this photo from the 1950s of two truly important Manchester Corinthians. I called to see Mary (taller player) the other week. She's in her 90s but still talks with a passion about playing football back then. Her story is of course in the book: gjfootballarchive.com/2026/1…
An amazing 9 goal thriller between @NUFC and @mancity is today’s on this day. Follow the link: gjfootballarchive.com/2026/1…

'a plaything' - absolutely not! It's a serious business to them and definitely not 'a plaything'. Bottom line is one invests in the club & Manchester, the other has taken a profitable club and placed it under huge debt. Both are businesses to their owners.
OLIVER HOLT: Man City and Man United fans are saddled with despicable owners who have twisted their great clubs out of shape. One is a plaything, the other a cash cow. These are dark days for Manchesterism in football trib.al/rZtt5S9
Even the shirts tell a story (any keen eyed people noticed the badge?).

There's so much negativity in football. I see that the seat counters have been getting giddy about empty seats at MUFC now. How can anyone criticise fans of any club for not attending? Football's not cheap and it's often those who don't go that are the most vocal abt empty seats!
Last chance to order and get your name in the updated Manchester Corinthians gjfootballarchive.com/2026/1… When the 1st edition was published 2 years ago it told via the voices of the women there the story of the club from birth to final game for the 1st time. The update builds on that
