That's where I was stood!!
The look on Burties face as the ball just goes wide.
Only LR / Osler corner... and that was high tech, right next to the local exchange behind the Shell garage!!

What rubbish commentary/voiceover and quite patronising. I hope he had to do the same for the next replay when we actually beat them although he'd probably only begrudgingly say we won.

United defeat Bury 3-2 at Gigg Lane on this day 7 years ago. Two free-kicks from Chris Maguire and a Greg Leigh o.g did the damage.
James Vaughan and Tom Pope replied for the Shakers.

Milk Cup fourth round 2nd replay - U’s v Manchester United
What were your memories? As a small school kid I was in the packed London Road end. Amazing night that we won 2-1 AET.

I was in the Osler (Beech Road shelf for the first game), amazing night. Little bruv missed the game because he had a ticket bought to go to his primary school disco that night before we had the draw at Old Trafford, and mum and dad made him go to that instead

That'd be one hell of a grudge to hold going that far wouldn't it.

Left side of the London Road (before I moved to the more civilized right side in the 90s). Has there ever been better mis-header than Biggins's that night?
