blueonblue said:It was a lot more than just the score, it was when people suddenly took notice that this was a team who has everything, they slaughtered Spuds in a manner that brook no argument, with a style of play that was pace, grace, and power..........with a swagger thrown in.
Its one of those games that stays with you if you were there, all of a sudden Big Mal was not a media scapegoat, Joe Mercer was not on his last legs with a club going nowhere, they were the real deal an now everyone knew it.
To top it all we were on match of the day to boot as Wolstenholme and the BBC were slavering pre match at a Spuds slaughter of Gods own football team.
Nothing changes much Huh ?
Loved that old City team but some of the football we played last season was beyond anything I have ever seen in the Sky Blue jersey.
Been a long time coming.
