Hinchcliffe in the 5-1
He’s a fullback remember

Bishop’s long ball to White, White’s first time cross and Hincliffe’s bullet header just inside the box in front of an ever dwindling number of United fans in Platt Lane to make it 5 and he reminded them it was 5. No contest.

And no Blue has had a bad word to say about the fella ever since

Watson for me followed by Macken in a close 2nd and then Vinnie 3rd

I was very low down in the stand behind the goal. Thought Sergio's movement for the goal was superb. Probably the only time he got away from Luiz all day. Luiz played so well that I think it was the match where Sergio ended up stamping on him?

Maurizio Gaudino against the dippers. I seem to remember him almost being horizontal as he dived to head it in. memory is so shit it was probably an own goal off the knee by Kit Symons against Swindon though.

Billy Macadams can't remember who we we playing, but it was in 1958/ 59 when he dived between the boots of two defender no more than 18 inches off the floor to score as well as being clatter on the head by two pair of boots,Platt Lane end. He was the bravest player I have ever seen

Always remember dave Watson v Ipswich as a bullet of a header but the one that still gives me goosebumps is hintchcliffs v rags what a goal what a day.

Bobby McDonalds 2nd goal v Everton Q/F replay 1981.

Niall Quinn at anfield 1990 last minute equaliser city fans went mental the good old days

This was my choice, I was at the game and there were serious limbs. Six of us kept the celebration going at the pub long into the evening!

Some great memories here. I’d like to add that Clive Wilson’s at the flea pit (the day before the Full Members Cup final at Wembley) was particularly enjoyable at the time.

 

[Tarzan41]

Hard to see past Dave Watson and then Hinchcliffe v the Rags. I refuse to believe that is the same Andy Hinchcliffe that hates us now.

Dzeko Spurs away or Everton away

Yeah, Spurs away in 2011. How he managed that I'll never know.

Bobby McDonalds 2nd goal v Everton Q/F replay 1981.

Bobby Mc scored some great headers.

 

[Big Swifty]

As far as I know, Andy Black is the only City player to have headed a goalkeeper's clearance straight back over the keeper's head into the net.

In a match v Charlton in 1947, Sam Bartram ran out of his area to boot a loose ball clear, but didn't get much elevation on the ball and hit it hard about head height straight to Black. He bravely headed the heavy old leather casey back over Bartram's head from what must have been about 30 or35 yards.

Black later ran a pub at Moss Nook and I think there was a cartoon of the incident on the bar counter.

Vinny against United

Nothing comes near. The whole three points, the look on the Rag players' faces, the timing of the corner. It was better'n his goal v Leicester and that was a cracker!
