all I can say is glad i was not born then, england win the world cup and city get hammered 7-1 twice in the same year

Brian Harris was to be part of the world cup squad of 66, but got nobbled by a player who went on to take his place in the squad !

Another fact about him is, he wore his FA Cup winners medal around his neck after having his home broken into, he joked that they must have been Liverpool fans because they didn't take it !
