What they leave out is the game was played on a sea of mud. This was my only time at Maine Road & it absolutely pissed down all night. City were a top team then so this was some achievement. Charlie George with 2 great goals, this was one of THE performances in a wonderful season.

I loved Maine Road, it was one of the happier hunting grounds. What made this win better is that City were a good side.
Heard it on the radio. Very evocative from where I was sitting. proper commentary. Highlights were on the tele if I recall correctly/ Very misty
