Serious question. When and why did players stop jumping like this in celebration? You never see a two-footed jump with both arms up nowadays, but it seemed all the rage back then.
Fantastic assist from McClair.
This or Anderson assist for Ronaldos goal vs Porto?Fantastic assist from McClair.
I was in the Stretford End that day and I can so without doubt, the fans were delighted by the news that he was going to guy us. I felt there was little wrong with Knighton coming outto kick theball around - although, yes, it was unusual.19 August 1989 - Michael Knighton parades on the pitch at Old Trafford ahead of his takeover.

I was there that day, my first visit to Old Trafford as a nearly 8 year old and I remember it vividly.
Arsenal came to town as champions, having won that famous match at Anfield a few months before.
And United, complete with new signings Wallace, Webb, Ince and Pallister absolutely took them apart 4-1. What an introduction to Old Trafford - 32 years ago today!
Interestingly there's a picture of him on that article with the fans at a Derby away match - I would have been there too as I used to go to lots of matches at the Baseball Ground through dad's work, he used to get a plus one in the exec box but mum wasn't interested so I went!

No idea, of course, how history would have panned out but again I know fans were disappointed when the sale fell through (sounds a bit underhand in this BBC piece) because there was little love for Martin Edwards.
The game itself was brilliant, just a glimpse of things to come a few years later. Neil Webb was outstanding that day.
I was at the Derby game too but couldn't see Knighton because we were standing in a huge hole filled ankle deep in water - the Baseball ground (why was it called that?) was one of the sh!ttiest places ever for away fans in my opinion
It was Teddy (I was there too) - another f@ck up from Jim Leighton! I remembered this many years later when we signed Teddy because it made me recall another Millwall player years before - Gordon Hill who was brilliant against us when we stuffed them 4-0 in 1974 . he joined us a few days later...It was a great game! A wonderful bit of timing for my first OT match.
I remember the defeat to City at Maine Road (1-5) came the week after we'd beaten Millwall by the same score at OT because I went to that match too! I think Sheringham might have scored for Millwall from memory. I always remember the scores flipping like that because the odds of it must be astronomical.
As for the BBG it's literally because they used to play baseball there, as far back as the 1800s I believe.
That and Pride Park along with Old Trafford are the grounds where I've seen most matches, must have been to the BBG well over 100 times and the same for Pride Park, probably twice that in Manchester.
I actually saw my first ever live match anywhere at the BBG, against United in November'88, it finished 2-2 with Hughes & McClair for us.
Pedantic, but I Don’t believe that counted as an assist back thenFantastic assist from McClair.
Two very dark days. I was bullied constantly about the 6-1 at school.
10 years ago.....
10 years later.....
that was about the last time he was fit!!such an explosive player
