Sounds like you're rehashing from Twitter Dutch!

I'll be generous and assume that was an attempt at humour, and not something I'd said that had touched a nerve, but just in case, there's a bit of a clue on the first and last lines Trigger. <doh>

Now, if I'd tried to imply I invented it, or knew the answers....
 
Ooh, I'm usually rubbish at answering, but I'm fairly sure.

Raich Carter?

He once said it was the most turbulent season in his whole football career. Easy to understand why.

-Injured at the start of the season then about a month later resigned as Player Manager due to board difficulties.
-Asked to keep away from the other players so trained at the Boulevard and played for a local amateur team.
- Massive local campaign saw him agree to return in December to play until the end of the season. At the time the season was going pear-shaped.
- First game back for the reserves drew 15,000(including me).
- Beat Manchester United away in the FA Cup to avenge the 1-0 defeat in the 6th round at BP in 1949.
- Kept City in Div 2 with the goal in their 1-0 win in the last match of the season away at Doncaster.
- This was his last match for City.

Board difficulties? One way of describing it. Though not how the tabloids would nowadays.
