They even had ex-dippers on the commentary then as well. At least Ian St John had some integrity.

And it wasn't a pen. Defender played the ball and Aldridge fell over him.

Should never have been a pen, but didnt stop the commentator announcing with some certainty "and thats a penalty" before backtracking to agree with Ian St John.

I saw loads come and go. Russ, Alan, and about three others at least. Barry Catell and Steve Mellor on the door, David James the DJ.

My brother may remember some of them, he was more of a regular in there than I was.

Ha ha, no I went to the high school in Chorlton, which definitely was not posh !

Didn't ever know they had a high school, learn something new every day!

I was in the same year at junior school as Barry Cattell. He had a twin brother John. To say they were a bit rough around the edges was putting it mildly.

I went to Chorlton Grammar School which became Chorlton High School but was demolished about 30 years ago.

Changed its name to Oakwood High School in the early 80s. Now called Chorlton High again.

Comments section.

Article by Liam Morgan, who i follow on Twitter. States he is an MUFC season ticket holder in his bio. Oh the irony Liam.

The vast majority of comments agree with Serg, including fans of other clubs. Only the Rags don’t, and are having a pop at Serg.

Yeah, it had a good run for a while. I played in the same team as Roger Palmer and Johnny Hart's youngest son Nigel who (through sheer determination) carved himself out a career in the lower leagues with Stockport, Lincoln and Chesterfield amongst others I think.

Yes I had forgotten Roger and did Paul Hart go to Chorlton High? ( the old enemy ).
