I'm imaging the King saying to Jimmy "How nice to meet you Mr Hagan. One is a big fan of yours. Now who's this chappie to your left?"

Probably one of the best saves I have ever seen

Fixed that for you. It was on a par with Banks' Pele save

Does anyone know if any of these three blokes do still follow United?

I was behind the goal as well KB. I watched it as the ball left Peschy's head and was almost at the goal line and then everybody jumped up in front and all around us to celebrate so I never actually saw the save, I was celebrating with the rest. I just couldn't comprehend how it could have been saved until I saw it later, truly unbelievable, and as we're finding out this season it just shows the difference a good keeper can make to a team's fortunes.

Totally agree GrayBlade, Moore has made a tremendous difference to the defence.

No, putting these up just for the interest. Park Hill mainly for vorpal blade. As a nipper, I used to go to the dog track with my uncle who had 4 or 5 greyhounds.

Woodhouse lad me!

Know the area well. Remember the yard too.

Went in the Blue Bell at just sixteen, all smart. Ordered a pint, barmaid shouted the landlord over and said "look at this. It wants a pint" .

He looked at me, laughed and said. "Give him half. Just one then he can piss off or have lemonade"
