Birtles went a day short of a year I think.
They named a building after him in town... UMIST!

The principal difference is that Birtles had a seriously decent season before United signed him 40-odd years ago. Wasn’t seen as a bad signing at the time. He simply crumbled under the pressure.

Looked a decent player at Forest.

Clearly trying to replicate City’s approach by having the juniors play the same style as the seniors.

City had more Academy players on the pitch at the end than the rag kids had points
