  • Alex Ferguson's job was reportedly on the line at a FA Cup game against Nottingham Forest when mark robins scored one of the most important goals in Uniteds history when he scored the winning goal at the city ground in 1990.United went on to win the cup and the rest as they say is history!!!!!

    The disallowed goal at the end was a joke, but so was the goal Brian McClair scored at Old Trafford the year before, which was a clear foot over the line. It was in the 6th round, also against Forest. Strangely, if United had won that day we'd have been in the semi-final at Hillsborough, and probably in the Leppings Lane end.

      I was at Wembley for both games in 1990. So glad that Fergie was strong enough to play Les Sealey instead. Just looking at this video and apart from Leighton cocking it up, I can't see much wrong with Forest's 'goal'. Possibly the lad to the left of picture was offside from the first header?

      Not only for United and Ferguson - who could easily have been relegated that year, never mind not winning a trophy - but also for Forest and Brian Clough. They reached the semis of the Cup in 1988 and 89 before this and the final in 91. What if instead of Robins’ goal, they’d won the Cup, and Cloughie was given the England job after Italia 90?

      What always gets forgotten about all this is how close Man Utd were to being relegated that season, AND how good Forest were in the cups at the time. I’ve long wanted to do an epic rewrite of English football beginning with Forest winning this game. United go down to Div 2 and Fergie is sacked, while Forest win the Cup and Cloughie takes over the England job after the World Cup in Italy…

    • @kisbie
      @kisbie 3 місяці тому

      @maxwellboyne2770 Clough was declining, but it was only really in that final season when he collapsed. As you say, he and Forest were still pretty decent right up until the Premier League was created. I doubt there were any circumstances he would ever have been appointed England manager, but you never know… If this game had gone the other way - if Lee Martin hadn’t kept that ball in - it is still just about imaginable that decades of English football after were completely different. (I’m not necessarily saying appointing Clough in 1990 would have been a good thing for England.)

    Famously the game where Fergie may have been sacked, but lets not forget United still had to win the other rounds and the final for Fergie to secure his job. 13th place in the league, another season without a trophy and the fans calling for his head. There was no way he would have survived. Ian Wright probably came the closest to getting Fergie sacked and rewriting history.

    Man U were not the corporate giant in January 1990 that they are now. In 1989-1990, there was not the amount of money involved in football. The newspaper was king back then, and there was not as much of a mass media as now. Top players weren't earning six-figure sums per week. If Fergie had been Man U manager in 2009-2010 and they had a season like that, he would have been sacked before January.

    the match that stated a legacy. mark hughes started off as a midfielder and you can see where his work in that position paid off. this team cost £12,500,000 to put together. alex f recouped about £2,500,000 from selling the 1985 fa cup team (apart from robson). so this was a very expensive side, which were in mid table two years running. had mark robins not nodded that ball in, you might not be talking about sir anything...but then again, he probably would have done something equally amazing elsewhere though. he is an absolute genius at putting teams together.however, van gaal was sacked for winning the fa cup...against crystal palace.

      @ blobbym, Utter bullshit! If you knew your history you would know that In terms of loyalty United support is second to none. (It's not just about following a winning team), here are some additional stats:
      In 1974 United were relegated to the old second divison. Despite the relegation United had the highest average home attendance anywhere in Britain, and the years we were in the second division we still had the highest average home attendances in Britain, no other team could achieve that feat. Despite all the years of Liverpools dominance in the 70's and 80's when United only won an odd FA Cup, our home attendances were consistently the highest in the land, apart from a couple of seasons and a further two seasons when Old Trafford only had 3 sides due to the Streford End and the United Road Stand being demolished and re-built). Our away support during the 70's and 80's when it was pay on the day was second to none, ref Doc's Red Army support. I also remember UEFA banning United from playing a UEFA Cup Winners Cup match v Saint Etienne at Old Trafford because of crowd trouble abroad, UEFA stipulated the game had to be played at least 200miles away from old trafford for our home leg and as such, selected Plymough for our "home leg" Despite this being in October and a mid week game. Little did UEFA realise that 36,000 United fans would travel to fill Home Park for a 600 mile round trip.
