Yeah, people seem to be glossing over the fact we're 2-1 UP from the first leg, we don't need to win the game tonight, simply not lose. I'm not for one minute suggesting we play for the draw, but our record of victories at OT isn't actually all that relevant when a vistory isn't required.

We could happily lose 3-2, 4-3, 5-4 etc etc and 2 - 1 isn't the end of it.
We simply cant lose 1 - 0

4 - fergie, mcguinness (70), o'farrell (72), docherty (74). McG replaced Busby in 69, but Busby came back in 70 for a year. To be fair they've only had 6 managers in that period (and we hardly played them in Atkinson's reign), so to have beaten 4 at ot doesn't sound so bad.

Sorry, I thought it was McGuinness until they went down and then Docherty took over, so Docherty actually took them down, interesting...Gary James said:DontLookBackInAnger said:so in other words we have only beaten 2 rags managers at the swamp since Matt Busby and one of them is Fergie!!!

Sam Eto's P45 said:I think they said once since 86 tbh
This is exactly correct. Must have been a slow auto-cue as she stuttered and said 'have only won once since ........86 when Ferguson joined'. Was a mistake but only a mistake.

It was Doc's appointment in dec 1972 that ultimately led to utd's big hero Denis Law wanting to move on. Law moved to City and we all know what happened in April 74. I wonder if Tevez knows this story?
