The Magic of the FA Cup - Fredster memories
1976 - my first FA Cup final, loved that team, loved the style of play The Doc encouraged
Here's the full game, not watched it in full myself yet 1977 - my first semi (so to speak) V Leeds 55,000 in Hillsborough and a bit moody iirc 1977 - The Doc keeps his promise Always great to beat the Vermin - more so when it stops a treble! full game |

first final i remember is the 1990 final v palace when i was 9. my mum got married to my step dad on the day of the original game, and i got a half-hearted promise that i could go if there was a replay. i think i was the only united fan delighted with a draw went to the replay on the thursday night (from memory) and had 2 days off school to do it.

One of the great overlooked goals - I think in part due to it going to a replay, and in part because it seems to be best remembered for Smith's miss 1st Half highlights 2nd Half highlights Replay highlights |

Favourite memory ? 1979 replay v the dippers at Goodson 5 of us walking back to the car keeping our gobs shut and our heads down, when a little scouse scally, about 12 years old,strolls over and asks " youse got the time ?" Bloke with us who still had his work boots on took offence at this, kicked the scally in his %@#$&!s then stamped on him a few times Could hardly run away for laughing Still see the lad who did the kicking occasionally - his justification is " if he was old enough to try and get us battered he was old enough for a kicking" |

The games I rememeber best are those against Arsenal.
- 1999 semi villa park obviously, my old man wouldn't let me go on the pitch at the end. - 2002? Semi at villa park, 1-0 Scholes. Uniteds support was mental. - the final against Millwall. Pretty chilled out sunny day in Cardiff. -2005 final we dominated. Losing it hurt though. |
