Was in the States teaching the Yank navy some stuff, six pack of Killians Red beer keeping cool in the sink at the motel, 10 in the morning in Norfolk, Virginia. Marvellous but very nervy game

I was in Saudi in the US Army! (Long story)...befriended some RAF guys and snuck off to watch the game with them. No booze in sight, arabic commentary but a win is a win😅
 

I was living in London at the time , staying in a house share , my kopite mate decided to come down as it was a fellow blues stag do.
And he had also got into one of the birds in our house at the Bolton League cup final 😂
We were out for 9am and all done E’s 😂.
My mate never had a ticket but went to Wembley anyway.
I went in and he was happy to stay around Wembley (E’s , weed , Stella 😂)
Apparently there was a massive fight outside just after kick off between Everton , United and the Cockney touts and their heavies.
Met up with my mate after the match , he was black and blue , collapsed outside Wetherspoons and was blue lighted to A&E.
Spent a couple of hours in A&E then self discharged himself to go back on the lash.
Abiding memory afterwards was surrounding a black glass collector in a South London pub and the whole pub singing “Daniel Amokachi Daniel Amokachi” all took in good stead..
Also remember before the game a massive firm of Everton hooligans waiting for United at the top of Wembley way by the ground , United never showed up thankfully.
A brilliant day , Royle tactically outclassed Ferguson on the day and it worked.
Southall played a blinder and bringing on Ferguson then Amokachi completely disrupted United.
I think this so annoyed United that they deliberately dragged there heels over letting us sign Kanchelskis.
A great day all round, more please Everton , it’s been a while…
🍻
