Apparently. Out of the last 10 matches at Old Trafford between United and City, City have won 7, lost 2, and drawn 1.

Won 7.
Lost 2.
Drawn 1.

Considering City never ever got anything at Old Trafford bar the very odd win and a few token draws, that is some turn around.

It's fair to say Old Trafford was once 1 of our away graveyards.

Not anymore.
 
It's incredible really, I went in 74 and up till then city had a similar record of success at OT in the years between 68 and the day of Denis laws back heel . Arsenal is another one of course where city's record v them was appalling ? Can't see it happening at anfield anytime soon though unfortunately
 
We didn't win there between 1974 to 2008.

Mike Summerbee was mocked by their fans after we lost there in Feb 2011 for saying words to the effect that we're not far off coming to OT and running rings around them.

Since then as well as the matches jrb has provided above, the goals at OT is City 22 vs 10 United.

Summerbee was spot on with what he said.

I remember watching that game thinking we're a class above United here for the first time in a long, long time. For me, that was the turning point and if it wasn't for a freak deflection off Rooney's shinpad, we would have got something out of the game.
 
There used to be a feeling of absolute dread when going there, I hated the thought of it, knowing we would lose. Nowadays it just feels so tame, not in any way intimidating. Actually thoroughly enjoyable.
