For those of us born over 20 years after Munich, being able to read these accounts of our club's history is special and invaluable. We can't overstate how important it is for us to have storytellers such as Giles and Tom Clare around to regale us with these memories. Brilliant read, thanks so much for sharing.

The next one will be Part 2, with more about what I saw at Selhurst Park in '95, and other memories of Le Roi. There will be a slight delay as I'm off to Italy for a postponed 30th Wedding Anniversay.Hoping for maximum points from Burnley & Wigan. Wigan could be tricky. Thanks people.

The length was fine as you are a great storyteller and the telling of history should not be shunted. Especially if it is United history. Scott, Will now go to the RoMs Best Writers section as I fear I have been missing something special. Cheers. Mr. Oakley and Scott,

Makes me feel closer to the club. Its good to see proper articles written rather that tabloid extracts copied and pasted of who the Sun think we are going to sign this summer Thanks again I wouldnt have known some of this What an outstanding read. Makes me feel closer to the club.

I fear this piece was too long and has put others, so maybe I'll keep it shorter in future. Thanks to Scott for letting me prattle on at such length though. Chingar, you can see the earlier articles (50 Years of Disappointment and the two on Denis Law) if you click on 'Contributing Writer' at the end of the Gregg piece, or under 'RoM's Best Writers' (I'm very proud of that , thanks again Scott) Boogeyman, I haven't read Jim White's Biography book, but I loved his 'Are You Watching Liverpool? after the first Premiership title. I met Jim at the Edinburgh TV Festival in 1996 . I remember it well as that was the day Ole Gunnar Solskjaer made his debut against Blackburn, and scored a lovely goal! Ah for writing a book, Ooh Aah, well I'm open to offers! Thanks for all the kind comments. I fear this piece was too long and has put others, so maybe I’ll keep it shorter in future.
