On its 26th anniversary, we look back to the game recognised by City fans as perhaps our lowest ever point...

Our Division Two visit to Bootham Crescent has become part of the Club’s folklore, with Joe Royle’s side beaten 2-1 - a result that saw us slip to our lowest ever league position.

But it sparked a significant upturn in form. 

We only lost two of our next 27 matches, earning promotion back into Division One via the play-offs after a memorable final against Gillingham. 

In this CITY+ documentary originally published in 2021, we speak to the fans and players who were there that fateful day and get their memories. 

It’s available to watch now – only on CITY+...
