Guest redrobin108 Posted January 22, 2004 Share Posted January 22, 2004 Sunday the 25th January 2004, will mark the 10th anniversary since our great FA Cup win over Liverpool. But since that day, can you recall any other great cup win. Two good games against Everton ended in defeat. A league cup victory over Leeds spring to mind, with Hasslebank being sent off for a head butt. But what else have we done in the two major cup competitions.

Simez Posted January 22, 2004 Share Posted January 22, 2004 Okay so we haven`t done anything since `94 in the FA cup but the other major one is a (Ldv) trophy isn`t it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fct Posted January 22, 2004 Share Posted January 22, 2004 Oh yes I remember the Leeds match in '74: City had just drawn 1-1 at home with them and they did the cup draw for round 6 right after the final whistles nd the draw was.... Bristol City or Leeds Vs Liverpool. Bill Shankly said "Leeds V Liverpool will be the game of the round". Leeds were running away with the championship, unbeaten (I seem to recall the Gas doing similar things in the old div 3 at the same time) and City went up there and did them 1-0. Bill Shakley apologised to City after the result which was big of him to do so. City lost 0-1 Vs Liverpool in round 6 by the way, Toshack scoring. The cup run that year was Hull (H) 1-1, (A) 1-0; Hereford (A) 1-0; Leeds (H) 1-1, (A) 1-0; Liverpool (H) 0-1. Liverpool went on to beat Newcastle 3-0 in the final.

GrenadaRed Posted January 23, 2004 Share Posted January 23, 2004 Wow those 10 years have flown by. What a night that was at Anfield and no one could say it was a fluke either, as we had drawn with them twice at Ashton Gate to force the replay. I had a couple of quid on Tinnion to score the first goal as well, which made it even more perfect. Wish we had more times like that, although the very fact that we don't is what made it so special.
