When we beat Burnley 6-1 at their place in 2010 we were 3 up after 7 minutes which was a PL record at the time and probably still is, unless we've broken it ourselves since.Apparently we hold the Premier League record for the quickest team to lead 5-0, which we did in 18 minutes v Watford earlier this season.

There is a football stadium on Broadhurst Park now.I'd check for dog shit first! Especially up near Broadhurst Park ;)
I used to walk my dog on Broadhurst Fields and watch Sunday League football back in the 90s .
(My 3 girls all went to Moston Fields primary and then NMHSG ).

Triple hat-tricks have been done 3 times in the League and twice in the FAC:
1909 West, Hooper & Spouncer for Forest V Leicester (Division One)
1915 Carr, Elliott &Tinsley for Middlesbrough v Goole(FAC)
1960 Allen, Smith & Jones for Spurs v Crewe (FAC - that day Allen scored 5 and Smith 4)
1962 Barnes, Wyn Davies & Ambler for Wrexham v Hartlepool (Div 4)
1987 Adcock, White & Stewart for City v Huddersfield (Div 2)
It has not been done since.

Only*1st team from Manchester to win a major trophy( FA Cup in 1904).
Our players also refused to do the Nazi salute before the game, which created diplomatic issues.City were the first English team to play a “European” fixture when we were invited to Germany the play a select German league XI when we were champions in 1937.
Funnily enough the England national side complied and did it.
