Never forget who the first English team to win the big cup was and how many we would have won were it not for Munich in 58.

My old man was there that night.

He was born in 52, so he would have been 16.

Have you had nights like this, harry, you fucking fanny?

No, but then again neither have you.

Never forget, at the weekend United's own manager floated the idea that this might be the worst United team ever.



Still making history!

Are you going to the "Battle of Britain" this week Hal?

Just a warning, don't eat the food.

Was a great win for Man U but definitely eclipsed by Celtic being the first UK club to take the trophy one year earlier in ‘67 in Lisbon.
Every Celtic player was born within 30 miles of their stadium In Glasgow
