When the gods smiled on us

[Gingers Dad]

A friend of mine went to this one and said he couldn't believe we had won 5-1 with David White hitting 4

I was at that game and City battered them. Mark Ward ran the show. Nothing lucky about that one

The 1989 Derby game result of 5-1 at Maine Road was one I didn't see coming. We had about 5/6 of the previous FA Youth cup-winning team and they had some big signings.
If I remember correctly, we hardly had a touch of the ball before the ref took off the players due to it kicking-off in the North Stand.
Oh, Andy Hinchcliffe's goal was the best of the game - he must have run over half of the pitch to score that header...

Kiki Musampa goal against CoachWreckers and Hackers FC. My lad was listening to it in his bedroom (EFC fan) and Stuart Hall (whatever happened to Stuey?) and SH comes on the radio "There's been a goal at the City of Manchester Stadium (it was the season that EFC were vying for a top four spot) - son's heart, in true City fashion sank to his knees at the expected outcome - "and it gone to Manchester City!' The Gods smiled on two of the Dippers' favourite teams that day!

Stuart Hall got stung in the Yew Tree scandal

When arsenal were 5-0 up at half time how they didn’t get another 5 second half I’ll never know[/QUOTE
It's because they respected us.

Gerrard slipping and United thinking they had won the league until 93:20 were both devine intervention.

Who is this Devine fella? I don’t remember him!

Nah, I was there that night. That was no fluke, we battered them.

Absolutely. Was a great game to be at. We gave them a good spanking, and not just the scoreline.

It was 4.

Correct pal mistake on my behalf. I was in the Main stand when he brought Henry on I thought it's going on it's going to end up sixes or sevens this.

Had to be the Aguero moment that day god was on our side

Same kind of performance against our good old friends Bayern a few years back also.

And Barca. Messi shaking his head in disbelief.
