1 who missed a penalty at Maine Road?

Crap. I was at that game and don't honestly remember. If it was Horton as suggested by Granny that was the second important pen I saw him miss. There was another in the 1-0 defeat at Pompey, Boxing day, the year before.

As a footnote we paid some locals to "mind our (hired) car in Moss Side that Saturday. The little sods still slashed our tyres. We called The AA who came out to fix it and they asked me my name. My dad was Polish so I have a Z in my name. When I mentioned the Z, The Manchester AA guy looked at me, very confused, and asked "How do you do a Z?"

Bemused, I replied "just take an N and knock it over"

Seriously happened.

Seriously appalled at my fading memory as some of the above it's not just trying to remember things I must have known but some things I can't even remember happening, like Sully's game, the Den Haag (faintly) and the International match.

I bet you'd do well in a quiz of the 1971/72 season! :)

I remember that friendly with Den Haag - there was only a couple of thousand there at a time when we were averaging nearly 25000 for league games.
