For me has to be the City vs QPR game at Maine Road with THAT Pollock own goal. Up to that point I'd convinced myself we would stay up, and knew it was then out of our hands, absolutely pissed it down too walking back to the car!!
Middlesborough at home under Pearce, around March time sticks out as well. My eldest son's first game, left a Christening early to get there, in a suit because I forgot my coat. Feckinn freezing and think we lost 1-0.
That season under Pearce was the closest I've come to losing interest in City, and I seriously questioned whether my lads would stick with City over the coming years...... seems like a lifetime ago :-D
Remember the rain after the QPR game well! Had parked the car at my mums house in Hulme and as the game ended it started to rain. And rain and rain. Remember thinking God was crying!
Got to mention on 606 that night. Two QPR fans rang up as they were safe from relegation because of the draw at Maine Road. They both said that the atmosphere at Maine Road had been great and they wished we might stay up because we were top fans.
Always remember that and have had a soft spot for QPR ever since. Hope they stay up this year.
