Look at the players they had in that team...
That this rather meaningless game still means so much is an indicator that we haven't won much recently, though.
Still, it was a belter, to which United certainly contributed.
Interesting comments regarding skin colour of players.
Ron Atkinson: "It's a toss-up between one of the coloured front people" (for man of the match) (6m21s)
Commentator: "...booing of the black players" (39s)
There was nothing wrong with the commentator mentioning booing that was directed at Albion's black players.
Far from it.

What a plonker.
Without black players he would never have progressed beyond Cambridge United.
The great team that hal referrs to was built by his predecessor Ronnie Allen.
Atkinson was just in the right place at the right time and added Brendon Batson from his previous club, Cambridge.
