[Stiff Little Wingers]

Perhaps time elapsed plays tricks on the memory but that second half v Stoke was magnificent, almost primeval in the way the fans got behind the team. From the 46th minute the team just roared into tackles got an early equaliser and the fans just never let up. My mates and I felt it was almost a last stand. Whatever it was it must go down in folklore as a great City moment that only we can understand. Similar to Colin Bell coming back on that Boxing Day game
