13.5.12. 93:20

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

87 mins I turned to my neighbour, "We're losing!" "Yeah, I want to go home!" Both of us stayed to the less than 'bitter' end!

I like the lady in red.

Lady? I don’t think so

 

[This CITY is OURS 14]

Not sure if you’re being tongue in cheek or serious (I suspect serious) but I heartily concur.
literally at that point, a lifetime - 42 years in my case by that day - of unremitting, relentless and remorseless piss taking ended in that moment.
Thousands of texts to the effect of “how did City get on today haha” after each regular defeat.
Regularly being serenaded while out with “this is how it feels to be City..” etc.
Being the butt of a lifetimes worth of jokes.
And just the sheer inevitability each season that not only were we going to disappoint but that they were going to win something. Always always something.
Relegation - they win the title. Relegation - they win an fa cup.
Grown Men laughing and guffawing into my face as we struggled in the third tier.

All of that and so much more gone, up in smoke, never to return, in the flash of an instant as Sergio smashed that ball past paddy kenny.

Oh Sergio you beautiful little bastard, you did so much more than simply score a goal that won a title. You changed thousands of lives for the better. Not just for that day or that summer. Forever.

I love him. I just love him.

100% spot on, all those years of pain, (especially for me going through high school in the 90's) relegation and despair while the red side lifted trophy after trophy ended with that swing of sergio's right boot, its as if the gods of 'typical city' had to put us through it one last time first though which made it all so much more an ecstatic moment, never fails to wet my eyes, i'm not crying, you are........

 

[give it to gordon]

I don't care what they say about getting married, seeing your kids born, etc.

That was the best day of my life.

100% and its not tongue in cheek

 

[Gremlin]

I will never, EVER, get tired of watching the videos of that moment.

 

[blue b4 the moon]

No words, this and the videos thread have given me goosebumps again.

117 was a mess.

[blue b4 the moon]

I posted this earlier on the video thread.

Superb.

 

[horlock_was_super]

You’d think, 10 years on, I’d be able to relive that day without crying.

Absolutely no chance Blue

 

[BlueMoonRisin’]

I was there that day. Emotions went from the depths of the Mariana trench to feeling on top of the world! 10 years ago, wow, best ever moment, even better than Stoke final win!

Imagine that 93:20 moment being this season, wild celebrations to then see this : (
