City 3 - 2 Blackburn 1992 / 93

[Man-chester copperpot]

This one’s for all you old codgers. Get your thinking caps on.

Maine Road.
Blackburn were good at the time and favourites

City 0-2 Blackburn at half time

City won 3-2

I was so young but i have a memory of being in the Kippax, we equalised and it was going mental…as it all calmed down and we turned around to face the pitch the 3rd went in over the keeper in the Umbro Stand end - think it might have been David White via deflection?

The only time i have ended upside down celebrating a goal

Anybody else there or rememer this?
Can’t remember the date or find any video’s!!!!

Shame there's no footage available as it was a cracking comeback

1993? Seems much more recent than that, for some reason I was in the North Stand for that one.

As you get holder time goes faster & faster.

Surely there's some club video that shown all the goals in that season?..Them City videos were very short in the 90s :(

They won the league 2 seasons later. This was the first season after they came up but like you said, they had a good season. Think they might've finished 4th in the end but Shearer was banging them in for fun

 

[gloryhuntersince85]

think it was 1st season in PL and if my memory serves me right we fancied ourselves as Shearer was out for them, and we found ourselves 2-0 in first half, Blackburn had been a bit of a bogey team for us, sure they beat us a few times we were in 2nd division (including day of Hillsbrough) , this may have been 1st time I saw us beat them.

Is that the game Walsh lamped Le Saux in the wall of a free kick?

 

[GazM]

Pretty sure this was Sky's game on MNF. Think I watched it in the pub. Wasn't it snowing ?
