How was life in black and white by the way ?

1955. Old Trafford. 5-0 to City! Too small to see very much at all. Can't find anything about it on the web but know very well I didn't dream it. 1-0 at HT and 4 more in the second half. What a first game to attend (rather than see!).

Just a hunch ?

I had no idea he was with us that long ago. I remember watching him when I was a nipper and I wasn't even born in 62.
