GARETH TAYLOR SCORES CITY’S 2ND GOAL
It is my recollection that before kick-off, City fans realised that we needed to win this game to retain realistic chance of going up. I don’t know what it was or why, the atmosphere was the best it had been for ages, it was as if we knew this was the beginning of the ‘return’.
