David Beckham made his Manchester United debut as a second half substitute against the Albion in the League Cup at The Goldstone.


Where in the ground did you watch it from?


I was sat in the West ️

West Terrace, just to the south of the away dugout.

And when I took my 10 year old son on the Old Trafford tour in 2000, he was very impressed that I got the answer correct to which team did Beckham make his debut against.

North Stand. Moved to Florida for six months the next day (this wasn't caused by the result!)

Yes.

“Who the f***ing hell are you?“ … we sang in unison to the unknown youth making his debut because we were all mature fans and considerate of his feelings in that moment.

North, but the most memorable thing about that night was Matthew Edward’s equalising with a diving header right in front of us - he was the real star in the making that night

And he went straight into the wrong position and we scored shortly afterwards. I used to go to all the games home and away but for some reason I wasn't at that one.

Another one here for the North - the right hand side as you looked from the pitch. The header was right in front of us.
