Review

 

1985: in footballing terms, it was a different world. Back then football was a hard game; the challenges were fierce and you had to take your lumps. If you were kicked there was no rolling about on the floor, you just got up and made sure you kicked back harder the next time! Red cards were rare, unless you were Kevin Moran and you came up against a ref wanting to make a name for himself. Attending matches back then was not the easy ride it has become; any Red going to Goodison for the first semi final was risking serious injury...

The end of that season saw three amazing Scousebusting feats in the space of a month. United dominated Liverpool in the FA Cup semi final at Goodison but late goals from first Ronnie Whelan and then Paul Walsh forced a replay. At Maine Road two superb goals from Robson and Hughes saw United through to Wembley. In the final, Kevin Moran was sent off against champions Everton but that only made United stronger. Whiteside scored what is arguably the greatest Cup Final goal and the FA Cup came back to Manchester.

These three matches are available on DVD for the first time. Each game features about half an hour of extended highlights. Watching the DVD the memories come flooding back: pitch invasions, singing `here we go', Whiteside kicking anything that moved, Robson at his dynamic, driving best, Hughes strong and mean upfront, McGrath sublime and cool at the back, Strachan busy in the midfield, Atkinson with all his jewellery and a time when winning the FA Cup meant so much to Manchester United.

Relive the goals and the crunching tackles (particularly in the semi final replay where Whiteside, Beglin and McDonald were lucky not to be arrested for assault never mind sent off!).
