Rank Manchester City biggest games

[HelloCity]

City 1-0 Utd in 2012 more than deserves to be on this list.

It was a bigger game than the 6-1 was at the time it was played that’s for sure.

Both ended up being significant important in terms of result.

Object to #1 on a technicality

You and your technicalities...

Most of the posters on here wouldn't remember it.

True for the younger fans but it still the most important in re-gaining City momentum and more self belief .

 

[Thomas Hearns]

1. QPR
2. Rags semi
3. Stoke
4. 6-1
5. Gills

The manner and importance of the qpr win sent us global.
Rags semi gave everyone - fans, managers, staff the belief that we had arrived
Stoke win confirmed that
6-1 may have stayed deep in the team’s psyche as proof that we were the best team in the league and given them hope when things turned sour against qpr
Gillingham is hugely overrated imo

I’ll explain Gillingham to you.

We only agreed to move to the City of Manchester Stadium if we had been promoted.
If we had stayed down then they would have built a temporary stadium instead.

The megaton? One of the reasons Mansour chose City was being in the new stadium and more importantly the land around it which had huge potential for future developments.

Without Gillingham non of the other matches would have happened.

In football terms who knows what would have happened immediately after without that win either. We would have stayed down and may have ended up like Leeds who have been down for 17 years.

That win gave us the momentum the club had lacked for a long time and ultimately was the first seed of where we are today.

1999 Play off final, otherwise the rest wouldn't of happened.

How can it be 1999 Play off Final
City have only existed since 2008

Op
daft question
you've even ranked the biggest win by your own order going from 1 to 5
in the correct order

??? there must be more than what i picked ?? what about the blackburn away when we got promoted or the championship winners 2001/2

Always find these comments weird. Wigan semi final, otherwise the final wouldn’t have happened

you maybe right about the ground ?? but i also heard united was favourite to take over if we won the 2000 olympic games and the bid was based around a 80.000 stadium
