  • AAh YES

    I wasn't born the last time we won the Cup, despite our glorious record in the competition. To see the guys in living colour is great. Not as far behind United skill-wise as everyone makes out. The glory of that day does come across, and thesadness that the international conspiracy has since deprived us of another one, in spite of our many other trophies since!

    I'd always thought 1960 was the first colour cup final. Thanks for posting as this must surely be the only colour footgae available of the pre Munich United
