Fascinating behind the scenes look at Manchester United FC in 1989. Compare what was leading edge technology at the time to now.

a training session as the they prepare for a big game, see how they relax away from the pressure of modern day football, travel on board the Manchester United team coach and see how Alex Ferguson and his backroom staff prepare for an important fixture and much, much more!

They used to bath together?

Eeeeeeew.

Its also bizarre to watch through covid19 and social distancing rules. We are so far away from people feeling safe to behave like this again.

I'm just going on The Caf
Wow that takes me back, I had that first video years ago. Actually on the 3rd video at 13.54 that's me in the white and grey jacket getting off a silcox coach.
Wonderful times, that 1989 season was the ultimate rollercoaster season, dabbling with relegation but winning the cup.

Behind the scenes footage at Man United during the 1994/95 title run-in.

I had a video late 80's 90's and there was lot's of behind the scene stuff (probably a season review) and you had Bryan Robson and Brian McClair going into the office to pick up their wage packets :lol:

Thanks for posting OP, loved those. The tweeness of particularly the 89/90 ones was great, the state-of-the-art cctv system (probably still in use at OT to be honest) and Hughesy's 'nice shot!' from the treatment table were highlights for me. Just great to see though, especially Fergie and Archie Knox.

Eamon's a bit of a prat but again great to see round the place in the late 90s, the time when I was really getting into my stride as a fan.
