At the time and maybe still that game had the biggest ever worldwide tv audience for a domestic game.The worst kick off time ever was that 11.30 v Everton on a Sunday when we got pushed back to be on TV. Could not even go to mass! It was fcking freezing and like an ice park around the Etihad. I was more happy getting home from that in one piece than a lot in the 70s.
It was played at that early time for the Chinese market as we had SJH and them some other Chinese player.
