!!In the weeks leading up to the final, City announced they would be wearing their new change strip of red and black, rather than the traditional sky blue. It was Allison's suggestion, believing that it would give City the kind of invincibility enjoyed by AC Milan.

In a bizarre scenario Allison was forced to watch the match from the stands, because of the touchline ban he was serving, but instead of opting for an elevated position, the camera's picked out the City assistant sitting with the fans on the front row, which ironically brought him closer to the pitch than the bench.

In a fast and open game, there were chances at both ends, but a solitary goal would decide this final, which swung in City's favour. It came in the 24th minute, as Summerbee's low cross was met by a thunderous shot by Neil Young, and City had a lead they would not relinquish.

An estimated 250,000 people lined the streets of Manchester for the victory parade the following afternoon, and Mercer addressed his beloved fans as the first man to win the FA Cup and League Championship as both player and manager.

So now relive this historic day for the Club, as City claim their 4th FA Cup crown, and we bring you the full uninterrupted 90 minutes in colour, plus a special bonus feature of the goals from 1956 when City last returned from Wembley triumphant.>!!
