This footage of Plymouth v Manchester City from fifty years ago today (23 January 1974) is well worth watching for a few reasons. First it’s an important game on the way to Wembley for Manchester’s Blues. Also, you can see both a disallowed goal from Denis Law and a muddy slip by Willie Donachie (extremely rare for any slip up from Donachie but it was the conditions here that failed!). Also, when Tommy Booth rescues the League Cup tie for the Blues listen out for Helen ‘the Bell’ Turner’s bell!
Keep watching and you can see the replay too!
