1991-92 Feb 8 Man City?

8 Sept 1990. First home point of the season (1-1). Beesley put a great cross in for the goal. Think he wore number 8 - bit random!

Played in midfield that day. Bassett often played players in unfamilar positions that worked!

An important win and goal of the season contender…View attachment 166232View attachment 166234View attachment 166233

My first game aged 6! Sat on a barrier on the kop with my cousin.

Judging by how full the Kop looks, the official attendance of 18,481 looks dubious!

I remember having the tour of the boardroom at the 1989 open day (I have a photo with Reg Brearley to prove it!), and there being a mysterious digital display above the door. The guy giving us the tour joked that it was to show the actual attendance versus the published one. Many a true word and all that?!

PS those open days were great when you got to nose around the ground and meet all the players and management.

That bottom one 3-3 draw at Ayresome Park after taking a 3-1 lead, that's Colin Hill.

One of the greatest spelling mistakes ever in the league table.

Some great Legends of the Lane there. Nightingale, a great goal-scorer and mudlark, Collindridge also a great servant to the Club and a Cup legend ( See Stoke replay ,c1946 ), Sir James, of course and a great shot of Eddie Shimwell who we let go too early, in the best Utd tradition. Ring any bells....?
