50 years ago today – one of the iconic moments of the 1970s, as Denis Law’s last professional goal sparks crowd trouble at Old Trafford, with Man United relegated to the Second Division for the first time in 36 years (and just 6 after their European Cup success).

  4. My dad and a few friends had managed to get tickets, but amongst the home supporters. When that goal went in, they ‘celebrated’ as much as Denis did. At least until they got back to their car afterwards!

  5. The ushited fans, well the ones old enough to know it’s history, hate this fact…

    Me and R-Kid quite a few years ago decided during a drunken session to give Denis Law his dying wish…

    So the next weekend on a sunny Sunday morning armed with a scarf, a flag and CTID printed out we headed to Old Toilet…

    We gave Denis his wish and also stuck the CTID on the plinth, all was going well until the security guys came a running…

    With hindsight we should have had a third man filming but it is what it is and it’s an achievement I’m extremely proud of…
