This is what the being in the Premiership is all about, little Watford going to the theater of dreams on Wednesday night, 75,000 people and a worldwide audience of millions, I have to work tomorrow and Tuesday then it is a little holiday in Manchester, first trip to Old Trafford and can't wait. I always thought that we would struggle this Season but an upset is on the cards. And I think it will be on Wednesday. Believe
we got the yellow army we had the m.o.n.g army now we got the bloody VIRGIN ARMY the first timers are so excited - bless
I've been there, but with a United supporting mate amongst the shyte home fans. Wednesday is my first time in the away end with the 'Orns and I can't wait I tell you! Especially as I'm going with my friend who supports United. I told her to sit in the away end with me to experience some REAL atmosphere at the ground for once!!
Will be nice to tick another off the visited grounds list, and am looking forward to getting up there and seeing what all my glory hunting mates will never see!
Not as cold as standing at the Stade de la Meinau on Friday night I bet! Took two hours in the pub afterwards for the feeling in my feet to come back!
My first trip to Man U was Jan 25th 1969. 4th round of the FA Cup Utd v Watford. As a 13 year old it was an amazing experience to see little old Watford playing against the likes of Charlton, Law, Best, Stiles, Stepney and managed by Matt Busby. At the time were at the top of the old third division and to draw at Old Trafford who were European champions at the time was awesome. Stewart Scullion scored in the first two minutes and the replay was staged three days later. Still got the two match programmes.Utd were charging ninepence for theirs and Watford a shilling.
