WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!
That header was an equaliser.
I think the Barca game was just a friendly and not the Thomas Cook Trophy.NQT said:Does the Thomas Cook trophy not count. In which case it'd be Anelka
Gary James said:NQT said:City's chairman, Eric Alexander, attempted to become the clubs first ever repesentative to serve on the Football League Management committee
Unfortunately, if that's from the book it's wrong - we'd had at least 1 other rep on the League Management Committee (Joshua Parlby in our first season as MCFC).
So here's a replacement for 29th feb - 29th February 1992 - City beat Aston Villa 2-0 at Maine Road watched by a crowd of 28,268. The goals were scored by Niall Quinn and David White.

I know a 'kind-of' City related fact.
On July 5 (cant remember what year), Thomas Cook opened up its first travel agency.
Would love a proper city related fact though =D
