It has only happened twice to Bert in something like 1,000 matches.
At Wembley v Hull,
Bert went to the bar to replenish his stock of red wine (£5, small bottle of donkey piss) when he met some Swedish Blades so he bought them all a drink and missed our first goal.
He assumed it was Hull who'd scored so he walked back up the steps to be greeted with the sight of 35,000 Unitedites going bonkers. Grrr.
1968 at Hillsborough, he went to see Jimmy Greaves, went for a piss and missed his bloody goal.
No doubt others have had similar tragic experiences.
