You hypocrite. You say you are only replying to people who have had a pop at you, but this comment in your reply to Bigalhunter "another who has the symbol of the Baader–Meinhof terrorist gang as their avatar. What a sewer or be swimming in Al" is an unprovoked pop at me. I made no posts to the removed thread, nor to this current thread, in fact my last post was middle of October, so you sure know how to hold a grudge!
My avatar is for the Red Army Faction of which the Baader-Meinhof group were a subset. The RAF certainly had left wing politics and were also motivated by the failure of West Germany to denazify the government and leading industrial concerns. So naturally the nazis in the german government made sure the RAF were designated a terrorist group. The group's methods were certainly violent though. A gross over-simplification on my part I admit, but I am sure no-one wants a full-on discussion of western europe politics in the 70s, I certainly dont (see my signature, this took close on an hour to put together). |

F A Cup March 1967, we were 2nd division, Man City 1st division.
Ray Crawford scored in first half, and City struggled to break us down. Eventually they got an equalizer with about 5 minutes to go, which probably enabled us to get out of the ground alive. Though if my memory serves me right we scored in the last minute but was disallowed due to Joe Broadfoot being in an offside position on the other side of the pitch, a goal which nowadays would have been allowed to stand.
Lost the replay a few days later 3 - 0 with Mike Summerbee taking us apart. |

Showing my age here ( in my eighth decade if it helps ), the RAF / Baader Meinhof group were my thing at the time. Am I too extreme to be a true lefty, or not a lefty at all as I've had to vote for parties to the right of the RAF? |

If you read the online Telegraph, the reader comments are like an alternate universe - the other day they were defending the Waffen SS! |
