[1] In addition to the First Division, the club competed in the FA Cup, Football League Cup and the FA Charity Shield.
The season on a whole was relatively disappointing; the club finished in a poor position in the league, as well as suffering defeat to Wolves in the League Cup Final.
However, the final match of the season was one to remember, as City went to Old Trafford and sent Manchester United down with a goal late on, scored by former United legend Denis Law.
Although United would’ve been relegated anyway, the fans on the terraces believed otherwise, as a pitch invasion ensued in an attempt to get the match abandoned.
The match was in fact abandoned, but it was decided that the 1-0 City win should stand.
