As a premier league team, I recall:

Beating Spurs a couple of times, notably the Forssell hat-trick in 2008 and McLeish’s first game at WHL the same season.

Beating City at St Andrews the same season again, I think Zarate scored a couple.

Beating Liverpool a few times in the Bruce years.

Beating Arsenal on the last day of the 2005 season.

Beating Chelsea, I think in 2011? Bowyer may have scored?

But I cannot recall any wins over Man Utd. Did we win one that I’m overlooking? I remember the draw at St Andrews when Grainger scored and then walked off into the sunset, and I remember Jamie Clapham scoring in a 2-2 draw. But memory ends there.

Don’t think we’ve even scored a goal at Old Trafford since about 1980
What did the Knights in White satin?

They're the only big side we didn't beat when in the Prem, haven't seen us beat them in my lifetime

City?


Was it 1-0 or 1-1 at St Andrew's when Jerome scored?

Any wins against Man City in the PL were when they were light years away from what they are now.

Jerome scored in a 1-1 against Man Utd in 09/10.

Yeah I remember the 2-2 against United. Midweek game. Clapham scoring a rare goal against Van Der Sar at the height of his powers.

Cristiano Ronaldo playing for them as well. I think Pandiani scored our second.

I feel like we beat them at home in a friendly under Fry too. Maybe the year we went back up to Div 1

Man City weren’t a big 6 team when we last played them in the premier league.

Darren Anderton at Anfield in 2004 - biblical.
