    Re: When was your first visit to Old Trafford?.

    Mine was 2nd November 2002 against Southampton in the league. Phil Neville and Diego Forlan got the goals in the 2-1 win... It was class, 85th winner from Forlan i was with my Uncle and when the goal went in all these strangers just lifted me in the air, it was mental!!!! We sat in the Stretford End quit close to the pitch, more in the corner though and we were down watching the team warm, and Becks was praticing his corners at the time, and he said 'alright mate' and i was so over whelmed! I know it wasn't much but it was a big thing to me personally at the time as he was my favourite player. I was only 10 at the time but from there on, as i live on the Isle of Man, i have made it to OT at least 9-10 times as a season!!

    March 1992 in a rather drab 0-0 vs the Wimbledon. Not a great game but never will forget. Was in the scoreboard end it seemed so big. Great memory

    Mine was 1956 think it was West Brom score on idea. Now most will not know this but before supporters were split up,I was next to a LIVERPOOL fan in the STRETFORD END. The car park opposite the mega store used to be a factory they had a clock tower with a illuminated neon sign, he turned to me & said WHO THE HELL IS "ST KILVERTS "THEY MADE FAT FOR COOKING. I can tell most of you we used to be able to stand behind either goal then at half time walk round to the other goal ok it was mad busy but you could do it if you wanted to.Could you imagine the chaos now ho my god.I have been pushed against the wall by a police horse at the stretford end so traffic could get passed, that night I ended up in HOSPITAL the horse stood on my foot & would,nt move we thumped it thumped a copper then it just walked away you should of seen the state of my foot limped for two weeks at least. I got locked out once that was the match against SHEFFIELD UNITED they were top of the league then, that was the game where you have all seen GEORGE BEST RUN FROM ONE SIDE OF THE BOX TO THE OTHER & SCORE . Have seen the youth team beat either BRADFORD or BARNSLEY THINK IT WAS 13 _1. BEST SCORED AMONGST OTHERS

    1997 vs Coventry. Two own goals in first five minutes and a third goal from Poborsky. Think Huckerby scored for Coventry but not sure. I was 8 or 9. Finished 3-1.

    On April 3rd when we lost 1-2 with Chelsea at Old Trafford and also lost the Premoer League Title 2010. Federico Macheda's goal was not enough for us because Mr. Mike Dean had given a clear offside goal by Didier Drogba before.
