I was just wondering if anybody else at the game Monday night was also at Old Trafford the last time we beat them by the same scoreline?
25 October 1989 League Cup Round 3

On both occasions I was in with the Mancs trying my best not to crack a smile
I remember going with my Dad, brother, Dad's mate and his kids. They were all MU fans. I also remember Terry Fenwick breaking his leg trying to go through the back of Mark Hughes and that Gary Lineker and Nayim scored. Apologies Vinny!
I was sat there Monday night trying my best to blend in and keep a low profile, especially as the section I was sat in was full of season ticket holders. At half time I said to my missus I'll settle for a 0-0 right now as I won't have to mute any celebrations or pretend to be happy if we concede.
It was so difficult when the goals went in but I managed to do pretty well. I had to tell my missus to wind it in a bit though, Jesus wept
Our fans were superb all night. When they started singing you're getting sacked in the morning a young lad a few rows down from me joined in
We were leaving the ground when l heard a loud "Yid Army" as the Spurs fans were coming out. I felt bloody great. Half hour brisk walk back to the car. I sat inside and finally let all my emotion out !!!
An hour to drive home then I had a few beers watching the whole match again.
Set up is a bit weird in that the benches don't seem to be big enough to accommodate all the backroom staff. Ours were sat with the fans next to the tunnel. Lamela wasn't too pleased to be dragged back as he was halfway down the touchline. In fact he didn't look pleased all night sat with his hood up.
Mancs were having a right whinge at Poch for being outside of his technical area, naughty boy.
Felt a bit sorry for Fernando as he didn't stop warming up all night. Very flexible according to my missus. If anybody wants some good close up shots she has plenty!!
