Easter 1995.
City staring at relegation because Horton's team couldn't defend and two tough games against Liverpool at Maine Road on Good Friday then away at eventual champions Blackburn on the Monday night.
We only went and won both. The game at Blackburn was the day I got hooked. It was absolutely lashing it down and we won 3-2 and had a couple disallowed too. Of course at the time it looked like it could hand the rags the title but they choked at West Ham on the final day.
Gaudino scored against Liverpool but didn't play at Blackburn (anyone remember why?).
Have we had a better Easter than that?
