Default Re: 25 years since Old Trafford

Jonathan Cross with a long range second consolation near the end.

Despite going to all the earlier rounds and arriving at the Racecourse an hour before the United tickets went on sale on a Sunday morning I didn't get one - never ever seen a que like it before or since - all down the car park, up Crispin Lane and along Mold Road - took one look and instantly threw the towel in.

Got match tickets on the day about half a mile away from Old Trafford from a Rastafarian tout at twice cost price - he had a massive bunch of tickets in his hand - needs must - it was that or dig a tunnel.

Always felt cheated out of seeing the great Eric Cantona - who was serving a suspension after his infamous kung fu flying kick at a spectator at Crystal Palace.

Anyone remember those 'shredded' two tone black and gold hats ? to match our away kit at the time - we wore them in our thousands.

PS Might have been Forest who also scored two goals at OT that season.
