 FROM THE PRESS BOX

PETER GARDNER WRITING IN THE MANCHESTER EVENING NEWS 20TH APRIL 1976 It must be Liverpool's title now! Any team that can produce a match-winner at this crucial stage of the season deserves to become champions for a record ninth time. David Fairclough roasted Manchester City with a late double blast that sent the Blues tumbling 3-0, their heaviest defeat of the season and only the second at home.
