I've been there to two United semi-finals and 6 United league games - all lost.

I was locked out of the "big one" when we were top of the Prem (1st Div) despite getting there for 1.30 p.m. George Best wonder goal repeated for decades on MOTD.

I've been on the Stretford end watching us and we were losing 3-1 I think when that prat Dennis Law sent Badger one way and the ball the other way and left a leg out for Len to fall over, much to the hilarity of the full house crowd. Memories that determine one day we'll be back.

What happens then 2006/7. Shelton running in on goal for the equaliser and blatantly tripped, nothing given.

Same season they field a reserve team against West Ham last day.

We know our place.

November 1965

I was 17 years old and "living the dream". Just imagine watching an away game at Old Trafford, taking it for granted, standing in amongst a "kop" maybe twice as big as ours but half the size of Anfield, keeping your mouth shut ( Manchester supporters were always rough and I mean rough. And Manchester supporters could afford to support their own team in those days). When Law did that showpony trick I had one of those "moments" - what's it all about!! Badger was real quality but it's all relative. Then there are proper human beings and there are prats like Dennis Law!!

Top tier behind the goal, central. Perfect. Being high up is the best way to appreciate a big stadium and I like the view of the pitch too.

 

[DazBlade88]

E335, row 26 I think.

I'm the good looking one.

Law scored in that match and George Best got two. Mick Jones scored for us

233, row 25. Looks like we got more than the usual away allocation by the looks of the stadium plan. Should be a great and grand away fortress for 2 hours.

Nice comfy armchair just behind the Directors box! Not often a freebie heads my way, so I am taking full advantage.

Was there for the big one. Was due to go on train but switched to SUT coach leaving Pond Street and got in before 1.30 lock out. Train fans were unlucky. Remember we had gone 13 games unbeaten at top of league and they knocked us off top spot.
