This article is from 2009.

Hero worship and unwavering loyalty are faithfully remembered in this funny and touching one man show by Bill Cronshaw. Charting his lifelong devotion to Manchester City FC, this piece recalls life in 50s Manchester by focusing on Cronshaw’s childhood hero, German goalkeeper Bert Trautmann. Although slow at times, this show is a real feel-good gem for all ages.
