"Sheffield United’s upset over Manchester United in the opening match of the 1992-93 season is one of the club’s crowning achievements in its 133-year history."

Jesus Christ.

Americans for you.

Americans for you.

And you're not surprised they didn't put Sheffield Wednesday instead?

We were lucky to even be mentioned that we once beat the mighty Man United

Fuck off!! Losing 0-0 to the massive Sheffield Wednesday was way bigger

The team who finished the previous season in 2nd away at the team who finished 9th. Yes they would have been favourites, but it was hardly an upset (particularly if you consider our form in the second half of the previous season).

Or maybe they’re just trying to talk up the value of the shirt.

Stick it on the honours board!

Deano is on Twitter saying this isn’t the shirt. Someone may have been conned.

“Of course, had it had been David Hirst who scored the first PL goal, the shirt would have been worth much more”

Still, nice plug for Danny’s next book “Broke and facing administration” oh sorry, meant “Legends of the Lane”

Deano seems to be disputing the fact that this is the real shirt. Apparently it was authenticated by the same company that said the Maradona 'Hand of God' shirt was genuine, which I seem to recall there was some dispute over too. I'm sure I read that the shirt that was auctioned was the one he wore in the first half (Maradona, not Deane).

 

[Dougie]

Deano’s wrong. Look at the Umbro logo on the shirt he’s holding up and where it is on
the shirt v Man U. Two different jerseys.

That looks a match for the one that was auctioned, Deano has even signed it!

Yep, Deano’s miles off it. Seems the owner has come round to it too judging by his tweet

What about the 5000 the other lot brought to QPR? Surely that has to rank alongside the 66 WC final in terms of monumental importance?

 

[blade too long]

its been sold 36 times in the last week at different auction houses
biggest scandal since the 134 pairs of david seamans gloves for that fa cup semi save against us
and wayne rooneys wig from that overhead kick was sold 18 times


like an episode of Minder

It is the shirt. Somewhere along the line Deane has confused another of his shirts for the one he scored in vs. Man Utd. And if at some point he sold that one as the one he scored in he may be receiving a phone call soon.

Same here, great view of his header but the atmosphere wasn’t pleasant for a while. However I seem to recall they shut up more as the game went on. Didn’t they miss a penalty first half? Been the same wherever I’ve watched a team play Man United. Ive been in with the opposition supporters at matches before and just watch quietly. This approach does not seem to apply to a lot of their supporters when in with home fans.
