Ha ha, I recognise the lad giving out some stick at 0.06 on that vid, he's still a regular home and away now.
And IIRC wasn't the Bury goal was scored by a City fan, Paul Butler, who moved on to Sunderland and was seen celebrating with other Blues in town after the Blackburn promotion match two years later?
Butler was a good mate of mine at Moston Brook High School. I remember being in the bookies on Claremont Rd laughing with my mate before the game saying look at Buts price.. 50-1 first scorer..I very nearly had a fiver on him but shit out. When he scored I was fucking ill, but not as ill as losing the game. I was numb after that match, without doubt one of the lowest points of our history. Anyway I seen Buts twice about a year later and like a total fucking ignorant snacked arsed kid,I ignored him both times because then I was blaming that goal for sending us down. How petty hey. Sorry Buts if you're out there. CTIDHa ha, I recognise the lad giving out some stick at 0.06 on that vid, he's still a regular home and away now.

What a shite time that was to be a Blue. Anyone that says differently is lying it was shit
Yes it was Paul Butler who is now involved with City's academy.

I went into work the morning after and was subjected to piss taking from utd and bury fans.
Must admit I felt ike crap and had no come backs whatsoever.
Bury fans laughing at me and my club! I couldn't believe what was happening.
Numb was how I felt most of the the 90s. :-DThanks for the replies.
@Stretch - that was definitely adding insult to injury, not putting the bet on. Numb was how I felt for most of that season!
