Last Manchester-born player to score for us?

Funnily enough, I was born on that very spot. But my dad was Chinese and my mother a Brummie. Am I a Manc?

That makes you a chummie sir.

As the thread title says, before the Stockport Iniesta's goal last night, who was the last local - born player to score for us?

I don't know by the way. Someone else asked me.

Paul Hince .

Very happy coming from Tameside and from the last data, statistically more City fans per head of population than anywhere else in the world.

And serial killers!

Read the whole of this thread and I'm still none the wiser. What a waste of time that was.

I feel like this would be the kind of thing Gary James would know, maybe tweet him and well get a definitive answer.

Yeah defo. I think I'm just happy with my kinda loose boundaries tbh. As far as I'm concerned, Phil's as local a lad as they come. 100%. That'll do for me.

Roger Palmer was definitely born in Manchester, and he scored several goals for us.
