At 81 and in poor health, I shouldn't think he would go for too much tbh. ๐Ÿ˜†

I'll get my coat.
I remember an interview with Denis Law during the Mourinho era at United.

The interviewer asked him how he thought the United of his time would get on against the current crop.

'I think we'd lose 1-0'.

'That's very precise, why do you think that ?'

'Well....we're all in our 70's now'.

Bloody hell, what a pitch. Notice Geoff Hurst had to change his shirt at HT after his diving header. I always thought Jimmy Greaves looked like an estate agent.

Good to see Bonds wearing the No 2 shirt marauding down the right. He had to wait until Bobby departed before he beame a central pillar.

Considering Greaves arrived from Spurs in a part swap deal with Martin Peters the atmosphere at the time must have been a bit negative.

Greenwood out
