Comon Boys Let's Do It For Neil !!!

[Coverly]

Cripes, Peter Shilton playing in this game was still the England keeper in the 1990 World Cup!

Neil Young coached both my junior school football team and fun after school lessons when I was there between 1997 and 2001. A true legend, he taught me not only about football but also about what is needed to succeed in life. I was devastated to hear that he had at such a relatively early age, he is in my mind a true legend of the game.

RIP Neil

A Manchester United fan

RIP Neil Young

[Mr6292]

So many greats on show that day, with Man City's Summerbee, Lee, Bell, Young and Book, and Leicester City with Nish, Rodriguez and 'Sniffer' Clarke. Wonderful memories of both clubs, tinged with real sadness over the news of Neil Young's passing. RIP. His story will be forever in the Man City history books.

Wow - that's when football was football! sad to hear about Neil Young... I was a little surprised to see a young Peter Shilton in the game.He sort of links the players of the late 1960s to the 1980s for me, which is when I was old enough to watch football!

[roberius79]

Thanks Neil, it's a joy to watch. I was 6 years old then. Wonderful memories. You will not be forgotten. RIP. Birmingham City fan.

[foggiafans]

addio grandissimo! MCFC Italia

[twidd1]

As a Leicester fan who grew up in this era I must admit at the time that goal was hard to take but hey it's only a game and his death brings everything into perspective, top player and respects to his family on the lighter side I remember swapping his picture card for five top Leicester cards RIP Neil.

[ev3nflow]

Heres how you spell legend.....

NEIL YOUNG..

Thankyou mate and godbless....

City till i die....

[SEGoddard]

If Summerbee had taken the foul - most today would be expected to do so - he would never have made the pass that led to the goal. Old-fashioned class from him and Young (and I'm not a City fan). RIP Neil.

[niedorzeczywisty]

Gone but never forgotten!

What great football.

A super Manchester City side and a leicester team full of interesting/exciting players too.

RIP Neil Young

[paul1966england]

so sad to hear of nellies illness i remember also his goal in austria the season after the f a cup win he will always be remembered so much respect

[WDH59510]

Massive respect to Neil and his family, from a Rangers fan.

[thelastbear1]

WONDERFUL memories! (never seen this in colour, thanks for posting).

[richardwightman]

Respect to Neil Young from Leicester city fan, this was a great final, two great clubs.

[Kitificationable]

Neil Young. Respect.

[mrcakey]

Sadly Neil Young is not long for this world. He was always a little bit in the shadow of Bell, Summerbee and Lee, which is not really fair as he was a great player in his own right.

Here's hoping we can get to the final and win it again before he passes.

[mrgenuine1111]

LOCHHEADS WIN AGAIN

[converse91970]

Was it true that the City goalie preferred to be plumbing than playing football?......I heard Mike Summerbee saying this on the City history video, but was not sure if he was joking or not!!

[PeerlessPaavo]

Haven't seen more than the five minutes here, but looks like Summerbee's as good a candidate as any for Man of the Match.

Great wing play from City.

[jnmklo9]

City were sheer class then

[MPicoTTo2007]

shilton - legend

[j4wn]

Peter Shilton must have only been about 19 then,he was 40 in the 1990 World Cup. What a career.

[davidnettleton]

This is the only FA Cup Final I attended. Although it was 40 years ago, I still don't understand how Peter Rodriguiz missed an open goal from 6 yards ( 2 minutes into video).

[MrBazzabee]

good game

[MrBazzabee]

Glad to see no-one on the city camp messed with Andy Lochead!!!--Nice guy though Andy is ........HARD as fuckin' nails...Ask Tommy Docherty!!!!

[anthonyc3po]

great to a time with no ads on shirts or around the ground! can we go back to that please?

[Blutackboy]

Great memories even though I am a foxes fan. I went with my late Dad and we saw all the matches en route to the final.

[myowntruth1]

My dad was lucky enough to get tickets for this... he won them in the prize draw in the semi-final...

[Glamagal2009]

What a superb final this was. I tried to buy tickets for it but finished up, like thousands of others, having to watch it on the TV.

The five or six-man Leicester move when they tore the Manchester City defence apart and culminated with Andy Lochhead blazing wide was brilliant to watch.

How much was a pint of beer back then?
