Do you know why Tatty? For me who followed them, as a kid, United would do ok and ultimately let you down.
We won the FA Cup in 85 and lost in the FA Cup 0-2 to West Ham the following season (Frank McAvennie if I recall) and I remember the 10 game winning streak at the start of the season and then ended up 10 points behind the vermin - Think the first defeat was 0-3 to Leicester? Anyway what I think I'm trying to say was that only in 93/94 came the time when I realised that we were a £#%&!ing awesome side - we'd go away and win easily, we'd batter teams and nobody could touch us (despite the odd defeat here or there)... I think as a United fan during the 80's there were a lot of false dawns... A lot of reds these days take it all for granted but if you remember season 91-92 and the heartache with that, 92-93 was the first title but the season after was really when we were a class above the others. In my mind anyway... I've been drinking |

Definitely one of my top three United games. The goon after Keanes goal was just ridiculous. Remember that game for the torrential rain in town afterwards, seem to recall it was one of the first games ever when all the pubs seemed to be on lockdown afterwards. Ended up in that place by the boardwalk, shut now, name escapes me.

Re: ESPN Classics
Two Manchester United matches from two very different eras. Ron Atkinson's 1985 side travel to QPR, and Fergie's team visit Crystal Palace in 1992.
