blimey - to think we used to complain about our old pitch, and a few people had a (not so) quiet weep at the state of our soggy pitch this weekend. Them were the days !!

Marvellous stuff!

Lovely to see the likes of Stan Allan, Graham Heathcote and John Davison gliding across the Old Trafford mud.

We created a few decent chances in that second half.

Andy Windsor came on as a second half sub and had a stormer .  Don't know why he never seems to get a mention in topics on former players , he was an all action bustling striker and scored plenty of goal during his 4 ( i think ) seasons with us .  No place on the ' Legends ' list either  -  surprising when the likes of Matt Woods  , no player appearances and one of our worst ever managers gets on there !!!
