Favourite Derby Games
January 27th, 2010
2 down, 1 to go!
WHAT'S YOUR FAVOURITE DERBY?
*3-1-1968 - the game that set City on course for the league championship.
*4-1 win at the Swamp, December 1970. Franny with a perfect hat-trick and the rags totally outclassed. Pardoe's injury the only blemish on a great day.
*The match where legand has it Malcom Allison (when taunted with some 'witty' ditty by the rags fans) - held up four fingers to them to indicate how many City would score - before the kick off! And we promptly did... I loved Mal for that - real class.
*I remember it well. Cruising at 4-0 up when Kidd got a consolation for the rags. The ironic cheer from the City fans was louder than that of those Stretford Enders who hadn't already gone home.
*My favourite moment has to be the Goat nicking it off Gaz Chuckle on the line then slotting it into the net on a tight angle......The look on Chuckle's ugly mug was worth a lifetime of disappointment
Any more favourites while warming up for tonight?
