Greatest Atmosphere ever at Maine Road

[the plasterer]

I don’t know why it sticks in my mind. The 5-1 loss to Tottenham in the FA cup. Terry Phelan scores one of the best consolation goals you’ll ever see by a City player and then the fans run on to the pitch and the game is halted.

I suppose it was the beginning of the end for City as a force at Maine Road. After that, everything just fell apart.

Thought it was 4-2 to spuds??

One not mentioned on here but I vaguely remember as an eleven year old the fenabhache match being quite noisy alah with chocolate songs.

I was in Platt lane that day and the Kippax was fit for bursting. There was a pocket of about 50 - 100 Charlton fans in the corner, but they moved them ( god knows where) and opened up the gates to take the strain off the Kippax. Swales well fiddled our attendances back in the day

Official attendance 22.500 that day haha

Can’t remember the date or score but Rodney Marsh was on fire and “Oh Rodney, Rodney” chants lifted the Kippax roof off.
