Spot on, what with all the recent hubris over AH's comments and general distain for City these days, thought I'd do a a bit of Stalinst revisionism of the game.

Doesn't really explain it, but carry on. It was a rare gem in a dismal period.
I'm on about the game, not the thread!

Obviously.Your old man was right !
Every September the 23rd I still wish all the City and United fans I know a "Very Happy 5-1 day".
I know it was ages ago and we've bettered it with the 1-6 but it's still the original "Demolition Derby" for me :)
23rd day of September
Hey, hey, hey! Ba-dee-ya, say, do you remember? Ba-dee-ya, dancin' in September Ba-dee-ya, never was a cloudy day

I was on holiday in Greece, wasn't so easy to find out the score back then.
I can remember walking around asking complete strangers if they knew the result until i found some random bloke who told me the score.
I told him to fuck off as i didn't believe him

Referee N Midgley (Bolton).
Scorers:

Used to wind up my late Aunt Val (season ticket holder, she hated out of town fans) who was a died hard, United fan by calling them Trafford Rovers, just a thing I call them.Why Trafford Rovers and not Trafford United?
