Season in focus
Despite finishing 13th in the First Division, United won the FA Cup for the first time. Jimmy Turnbull’s 22 goals supported the campaign, and the 1–0 final win over Bristol City gave the club a second major honour in two seasons. The contrast between league struggle and cup success makes the final the campaign’s defining event.
