Not a clue about the first but I guess the last was Kyle Edwards 89th minute goal in the 2018 Wembley Playoff Final infamous 3-1 defeat against Coventry.

Correct for 1/2 a point

We drew 0-0 in Tis's first game away at York. We won our first home game though, I think it was Stanno who scored.

Name the only Club playing at level four in the Football League (as it was then) ever to have played a competitive fixture against the reigning European Cup Holders.

Were City third or fourth division in 1969 when we played Utd?

Reckon that's a very good shout, we were indeed in the 4th tier in 1968-69 season, and of course played them in the FACup 3rd round in Jan 69

Wonder if deep in the BBC Archives, any footage survives ? I seem to remember that highlights got shown, and therefore the whole game would have been filmed ! Could be the "holy grail" for many City fans, IF it still exists !

I can remember seeing some highlights although I can't remember where, maybe one of those FA Cup reloaded show the BBC were doing. Hard to pick out what happened with Banks's diving header without the replay! Mum still not happy that my Uncle ripped up a George Best poster she had bought with her pocket money before the game.
