Another game in which we were shite with Ole on the bench.
And Solskjaer has won it!

One match isn't a relegation battle, they're completely different things.
Nobody is more attached to Ole than the club, just because they don't share your "Ole out immediately" opinion.
Sticking with the club transcends whoever the manager may or not be. I should imagine we all want what we think is best FOR the club but we can't really influence what happens AT club so we support them through thick and thin.
Older supporters also experienced relegation (plus the thrill of dominating the second division the following season) and a succession of so so managers before AF came along and worked his magic.
Backing the manager blindly is not what's expected of fans but supporting the club and team through lean times as well as fat is.
Interestingly, he got a bollocking from Fergie and fined wages for poor sportsmanship. I don't see a problem with it personally.
We did well to win then, considering we were shite?
And had more corners.
And more shots on target.
And more possession.
And goals.
But yeah, shite.
I thought Bayern (a good team, going for a treble themselves?) were better for a long while and we were good last 30.
A glorious moment in the history of sport going back to Ancient Greece, roughly 776 BC I think, but we all need to move on.
I think it must have been. I was only around 10 then but we went to a few charity shields at that time.
Indeed mate. Remember watching MUTV and they showed all his goals. As you said the range and quality was very impressive.
Basically when Sheringham equalised that's what the game became.
My favourite United moment. It might be negatively affecting us now as it’s the reason he’s our manager still as he’s a legend but that moment is still heart stopping
Yup. Thankfully there was very little time between that and the winning goal or it would've been agonising to watch.
Sure would. When the winner went in it almost didn't feel real even though when we won the corner we all knew we were going to score.
He could relegate us and it won't affect my memories and fondness for that night, for that moment. It's the greatest moment in football to me personally and Ole will always be a part of that.
But on the flip side the fact he scored that goal doesn't affect my opinion or criticism of him as a manager. He's not good enough and should be sacked immediately.
Great player, terrible manager.

It was a joke, don't overthink it.
Gotcha. Hard to tell at the minute
Kindly send those last two words in big BLOCK CAPITALS to someone high up in the club
The Munich players are on their knees, they don't know what's hit them... Manchester's hit them!
