If ‘New Trafford’ is such a nailed-on wealth generator, then why aren’t Ratcliffe and the Glazers funding it themselves?

Today marks 33 years since of one of the most bizarre goals of the 1991/92 season at Maine Road.

Here Luton keeper Steve Sutton thinks an offside has been given and kicks the ball straight to David White, who can’t believe his luck.

Play to the whistle.

Transfer deadline day - 1994

Back when you could sign players at anytime up to the end of March.

No transfer windows. No dedicated TV coverage. No bright yellow banners.

Just clubs quietly going about their business, and the way to find out was good old Ceefax.

Simpler times.

It’s 27 years to the day since Kenny Dalglish was on Newsnight to explain Newcastle Utd’s controversial wish to play their away FA Cup 4th round tie with Stevenage elsewhere.

And Jeremy Paxman gave King Kenny quite the introduction…
