Ok, who's who?

I recognise 2, but I was born in 1976, so I’m at a disadvantage.

Back Row: ?, John Sjoberg, ?, Gordon Banks, ?, ?, Mike Stringfellow
Front Row: Richie Norman, Frank McClintock, Dave Gibson, Graham Cross.

Are Colin Appleton and Jimmy Goodfellow in there?

King and Appleton are either side of Banks. Richie Norman is next to Stringfeliow, not in the front row.
The chap in the front row that you identified as Norman is Howard Riley, I think. Jimmy Goodfellow is not there.
That just leaves the chap on the left of the back row.
1963? That's a couple of years before I started watching City.

That last one will be Ken Keyworth. I think that's the Cup Final team.

Howard Riley was a lunchtime supervisor in the playground when I was at High School in Wigston. Top chap, used to watch us play football without a word about who he was, and quietly knock the ball back towards us when it came his way. Had absolutely no idea who he was back then until my Granddad told me about him.

Read somewhere that Villa are interested in the Denmark manager. Maybe he’ll take Vestegaard off us if Kaiser asks him nicely.
