Mark Robins came on as a sub in a FA Cup replay to save Sir Alex Ferguson his job, he also 34years later totally embarrassed a Manchester United manager nearly knocking them out of the FA Cup to practically cost ETH his job.

Saved the club twice. He's the hero we needed, but don't deserve.

At half time Manchester United have only been behind once away from home all season in the league. This is the fewest of any team in the division.

Kind of surprising to me. I know we can capitulate, but we just feel crap in general away.

In contrast we've led at Old Trafford 3 times all season at half time. Only have Sheffield Utd (twice) have been in front less often at home.
