This weekend's fifth round of the Cup has Man City and Leeds squaring up to one another at Etihad.
In respect of the aesthetic value-add goal nets can bring to the game, Etihad's black, almost invisible nets are among the worst around.
This wasn't always the case at City. They used to LOVE their goal nets.
Nearly 40 years ago the sides met at Maine Road in the old First Division. Similar to the way City responded to Euro 76 by installing Continental D's, so after the West Germany World Cup they found a way to follow the free-hanging fashion while keeping their A-frames, and went for the hybrid design.
