THERE is a photograph of Francis Lee standing on the perimeter wall of the Gallowgate End at St James' the Park celebrating that made Manchester champions.
For City fans of a certain vintage, it is an iconic image. One that should be a permanent part of the Etihad experience given how it highlights that the club's history of success stretches back a lot further than the 2012 Sergio Aguero moment now cast in galvanised steel outside the stadium.
Colin Bell has a stand named after him. Mike Summerbee is a club ambassador who still feels the love for Joe Mercer's team at every home game.
Lee, who was the third member of the Sky Blue trinity that helped City win the league championship, FA Cup, League Cup and European Cup Winners' Cup in the space of three glorious seasons, has died at the age of 79.
