City v blackburn 4 -1 ewood park 2000

[Mike N]

Months after the game I was talking to a mate about the game and he remembered he had a copy of the next day’s Daily Mirror in the boot of his car. They had a two page spread of the City end and we were both able to pick ourselves out. Hadn’t seen it before.

Happy days!

Me and my brother ended up at Shambles Square in town later that night. The best night celebrating City ever. Thousands of blues all singing Colin the King was a particular strong memory.

Bump.

It's on sky sports football now, full match.

Half n hour gone still 0-0 but Blackburn just hit the bar.

 

[Double R]

That was good, completely forgot how the match went, even the goals until the last few seconds of each build up. Blackburn hit the post four times! Bloody hell.

 

[hateutd]

Didn't they miss a load of chances before we equalised or has my memory gone to shit?

4 times I think,ball hits the bars... Still don't believe it

In a boozer near ground watching as no tickets, rammed with City.
City score, wild celebrations , looked up , the fuckin 50” Gone!
Everyone piles out about 100 , down to stadium, a couple of loose cannons picked up half a tree on way and smashed open the gates in the home end, happy days!

I was in the same pub. Never worked put how a tv could be there on its brackets one minute and gone the next. Pub was rammed so after that went out and listened to rest of match in the sunshine outside the ground.

One of the best away days ever and I’ve been going since 1958.

The noise in the last 20 minutes was phenomenal.

Manchester was mad that night.
