my first season as utd fan was the one in div 2 where 60 thou gates for us 44 for liverpool . too young to go but well remember the docs attacking style jim holton martin buchan , houston, pearson etc but also remember paddy roachDoc's Red Army said:
sal charles red devil etc are more that era as regards match going but i was regular in 80s when you paid at gate for all bar city pool and everton which plod insisted be all ticket . salford van hire main sponsers and stretford end a seething mass . my brother is 54 now and he used to take the footie specials away and regailed me with tails of whole carraiges being dismantled and going through the windows . i also remember going away to upton park and having shipping flares fired at us ----- some darts were flying about and someone was pictured in one of papers with a dart in his head blood pouring silk scarf round neck and chheesy grin ! crazy days indeed .
