When I became a Forest fan, on January 27th 1974, having seen Duncan McKenzie dribble rings around the Manchester City defence in the F.A. Cup 4th Round in front of 42,000 at the City Ground, I thought I'd seen the best football I'd ever see. I can't show anything from the game as it was not filmed so I can only convey what an impact this made on me by repeating the beautiful description of the game by Richard Pulk in his book "Forest Rambles" (1999). Duncan McKenzie simply tore Man City's star studded team to shreds in a one man show that had the match finished by half time and the packed, swaying terraces delirious with adulation. ... ... his act was flawless, a once in a lifetime virtuoso display of every trick in the Football book. He could do no wrong, shredding their shell shocked defence with an array of impudent flicks, feints, dummies, twists and turns, leaving opponents spinning like tops in his wake. His set up for Ian Bowyer's first .
