David Thompson sent off for two bookings, 71 minutes.

Hendry is booed after two errors let in debut-boy Boksic to grab the points for Bryan Robson’s team. After a strong first half City wilt in the hot sun and Tommo is the first City league debutant to see red after 70 minutes for two yellows. Only Palmer and Eustace look the part.
