ON THIS DAY 2002: The first return to SJP for Kevin Keegan as manager. Darren Huckerby also had another game to forget on his former stamping ground, missing several gilt-edged chances for City.
Richard Dunne was dismissed for City just before the half hour after dragging over Craig Bellamy as he bore down on goal.
A remodelled defence including Ex-Magpie Steve Howey then failed to deal with Nobby Solano, who tipped the ball round Nicky Weaver and then prodded it home into the empty Gallowgate goal. Magic.
In typical style the visiting fans continued with the antics seen on our last trip to Maine Road, with no less than 60 City louts barred up.(nufc.com)
Worst possible draw in the next round that year as well
