a song came out just after the 1968 European cup final against Benfica at Wembley which we won 4-1 (as if you need telling)

any way the songs words went like this but i cant remember the end of it (old age)

We went down to Wembley one fine day in May
With lots of supporters so loyal and gay <<<<<< (that needs changing) :rolleyes:
And when it was over and when it was done
We defeated Benfica by 4 goals to one


The 1st one was Bobby he out jumped the rest
The second was scored by wee Georgie Best


and thats where my memory fails me, i know Kiddo scored one and Charlton got the last but the words i canna remember

can anyone fill in the rest for me please as I plan giving it large in the pub tomorrow night just to see how many remember it.

thanks

the crowd they all chanted well I never did,
and the third one was scored by young Brian Kidd

The crowd were all singing for they wanted more
Then Bobby obliged by making it four,
A night to remember a team to recall,
The great Man United, the greatest of all!
