Back on this very day in 1968, Joe Mercer’s City travelled to Newcastle level on points with Manchester United at the top of the table and needing a victory to claim the crown.
We went on to seal a dramatic 4-3 win over the Magpies and, in turn, secured what was our first top-flight league title since 1937.
A brace from Neil Young allied to goals from Mike Summerbee and Francis Lees ensured City claimed the crown in what served as the prelude to the start of a golden period in the Club’s history.
Watch the video above for the highlights of what was a dramatic top-flight title clincher!
