He didn't send them down, unfortunately. Because of results elsewhere, they were fucked, even if they beat us.

A couple of days before I had just returned from 5 months in Northern Ireland and a very pregnant Mrs Q was not a happy bunny at me going to this game but I was. We were stood parallel to Law when he scored and everyone went bananas.

He cemented the demise even IF everything had gone their way elsewhere, it was to no avail … And Denis has done it .
 
I was there that day and in early when they flooded across the pitch, they were cowardly scum who I saw head but an old fella who clapped Laws goal.
My understanding was they closed the gates and the vast majority of City fans were locked out.
