I'm reading Mike Summerbee's autobiography at the moment. He says that similar to "Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young", at City it always should have been "Lee, Bell, Summerbee and Young"
It is not a one off though. Waddle and Hoddle had a big hit apparently. Also Alexi Lallas who played for the US of A was in a band. So not an uncommon feat. Maybe not an uncommon feat for a City player either as I seem to remember Berkovic having a band but not sure how big there were. Certainly not as big as Young.

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.
And if memory serves it was pishing down and i was at the front of the Kippax getting thoroughly wet.

So the rule must be if you wanna have a manager to win the title and/or a european trophy make sure he has played for City.
Hang on who is our Manager?
