The game that effectively ended Jimmy Bloomfields time at City. Also shouts for Denis Bergkamp, 3-3 draw 1997 & Ruud Van Nistelroy, lost 4-1 2003. Can still vividly remember the Bloomfield out chants at that match. Still finished in the top half of the old division 1 that season despite losing our last 3 games. Bloomfield resigned at the end of the season and everyone was thinking that McKlintock would lead us onwards and upwards. Things went from bad to worse and relegation to division 2 swiftly followed the next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had he lived could have won the World cup in 1962 and he probably would have been captain in 1966. A great read about him is the book "Duncan Edwards - The Greatest?"

Was that the goal from a free kick where the ref pushed us back to about 15 yards away from the ball from a free kick not far outside the box?

SkidsFox Posted 23 April 2017 Share Posted 23 April 2017 Bergkamp probably wins for a performance against us at home. Anyone remember a semi final against Spurs in the 80s? Hoddle destroyed us single-handed just through effective passing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROB-THE-BLUE Posted 23 April 2017 Share Posted 23 April 2017 Obviously not in the same league as Bergkamp etc but back in the 93-94 season Paul Kitson was brilliant for Derby in a 3-3 draw, got a hat trick I think. Matched infamously of course by Iwan Roberts "scoring all fvcking night" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Durnerz Posted 25 April 2017 Share Posted 25 April 2017 Victor Valdes comes to mind from the Barca friendly 03/04 I've never seen a keeper coming virtually to the edge of the 18 yard box to catch a cross, anything in the air that night he had it.

The_77 Posted 25 April 2017 Share Posted 25 April 2017 Gimenez was an absolute freak on Tuesday. 12-0 in the air, 5 tackles. Sure Godin and Griezmann are incredible players but as far as best opposition performances go, that kid's gotta be up there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mease Posted 25 April 2017 Share Posted 25 April 2017 Dennis Bergkamp When he had our pants down at Filbert Street. Dennis Bergkamp or Shearers performance of innocence for his volley.... Whatever mate ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
