Niall Quinn - Goal and Penalty Save 1991

[xgorton]

Yes think we did 2 or 3 - 1 if I remember correctly.

Won 2-1 then 3 days later 5-1 win at Villa.

We had a few outfield players going in nets in the 70's to 90's until keepers were allowed onto the bench

Mike Doyle (twice)
Bobby MacDonald
Tommy Booth
Steve Redmond
Nigel Gleghorn (twice)
Niall Quinn

The last outfield player to do so was Kyle Walker away at Atalanta - after Ederson went off injured at half time and then replacement Claudio Bravo was sent off.

You missed Matt Gray substituting for broken finger victim Harry Dowd in 1963.

Dowd returned with his arm in a sling and scored the equalising goal.

 

[Abattoir Blue]

Won 2-1.

The result relegated Derby, we also relegated Sunderland in the next home game.

Saunders who missed the penalty, signed for Liverpool along with Mark Wright in pre season. We played Liverpool at home the first home game of the season won 2-1 again with Saunders missing another penalty at the Platt Lane end.

Loved both of those games as a kid on the Kippax. When I see the White goals v Scousers they still give me goosebumps.

Pretty sure we relegated 2 teams at home at the end of that 91/92 season as well; Notts County and West Ham.

They even debated the White 2nd goal, was it over the line or not on Granada reports the following night.

Miles over the line from my vantage point, about half way up the Kippax

I actually watched the highlights of that game last night on YouTube along with the 2-1 win when Reidy got the winner.

Ha!

I was down at the front by the railings and was max 5 ft at the time...but yeah, clear as day!

One of my very favourite City memories. Perched on one of the crash barriers toward the top corner of the Kippax at the Platt Lane end as a 9 year old. Quinn was a great player for us and what a top save that was

Well I didn’t miss him out, I just listed the 70’s onwards lol but yes you are right.
Colin Bell scored for Bury on his debut too
