That was after three games. The post I referred to mentioned Christmas.
We went top on Boxing Day 1981 after winning at Anfield, but we weren't relegated that season, we were relegated at the end of the following season.
It might confuse things because we also played at Anfield during the festivities (27th) but lost 5-2. We were as high as 2nd in November IIRC and 9th in January but weren't top around Christmas.
We went top after beating Wolves at home very late on, no?
I was only a nipper and was heading up the Main Stand steps with my dad when I turned and think it was Trevor Francis scoring with a lob?
To this day, remember how packed Maine Road was and the noise
