man united v oldham athletic 1990 fa cup semi final replay

[englandmadethewest]

I think Oldham is a complete toilet. However, this made me proud as an Oldham fan. This is despite the fact that some of the Oldham players who used to come into our nightclub in Oldham and used to act like immature chimpanzees until finally they were given the bum's rush by the doormen.

proud to be born and living in oldham

[vorkutaman]

was there in the Kippax stand, cried on the bus back to Mumps.

amazing how football has changed

[steve1mufc]

I was at this game at main road. I was 9 and always remember Denis Irwin smashing the crossbar from a free kick and having a great game for Oldham. The season after Fergie signed him.

[mrmrscosanostra]

before?

[harrysboy]

What everybody has to remember is back then cup football was nearly 90% of the football that was shown on tv, so it was so much more significant having a good cup run.

[jonbuetube]

it amazing how much getting to the FA cup final actually ment back then!

[OmarRooney7]

Wow United looked quite shaky at the back... no wonder Fergie was under so much pressure, but he still had that something special about him... [bringing on Robins- the match winner]

[gammacurve]

Robins... YES!

[Brotherbaylon]

Mattyredman! Where's Nick Henry's disallowed goal??? We demand to know why it's missing from these extended highlights?

On another note - I hate Mark Robbins. Fergie must love him though because, by scoring that goal, he saved Fergie's Manchester utd career.

[Dr23rippa]

Oldham!!!!

[zander469]

I remember feeling gutted that Nick Henry's goal wasnt given. This is why i am glad i dont support a team any longer, i just cant handle the emotions, they always go against the lesser teams, its such a shame.

[ryanjamessmith]

typical utd tinted glasses view. Utd could get twated 4-1 at home by Liverpool and fergie and the sky reds would still say they were the better team....oh they already have...

[glees5150]

Like Stonerose, I was wondering were Nick henry's shot had gone from these highlights? Hit the underside of the bar and deffo crossed the line, strange that!

[zander469]

Yes i remember that. And still, 20 years on, NO goaline technology.

[Visonu]

Steve Bruce was also manager of Huddersfield but before Ritchie

[krazykevindjbahrain]

i remember mark hughes goal...i was in australia best man at a mate's wedding and my team oldham get to Wembley..!!! so i got tickets for my mum/dad and rang them after the match and my mum swore for the first time in her life and said that "Bloody" mark hughes...i nearly fell off the chair..!! i was at maine road for the 3-3 draw we should have beaten them then as well..!!

[zzzaaa0990]

Poor Oldham,denied by Man utd's 12th man (the referee) again,it just goes on,and on and on.

[muffineduc]

what are you on about you utter bulb?

[zzzaaa0990]

Remember this match very well and Oldham were so unlucky to lose,but that's Man utd for ya,always have the ref in their back pocket.

[muffineduc]

you clearly know nothing about football, and so must retreat into cliche. there was no controversy in this game regarding the referee - you are just a bitter yonner.

[zzzaaa0990]

Ferguson was in the referee's dressing room at half time,not too many people knew that at the time,so there.

[muffineduc]

oh well, that settles it then. it was clearly a fix. was he in the oldham dressing room as well? as from where i was stood it was the oldham defence that let robins in to score the winner not the ref. BIFFO.

[stonerose99]

erm Nicky Henry's goal in the replay that hit the bar and bounced down behind the line, however is mysteriously missing from this video post.

[paul2008uk]

you sound bitter we one fair and square

[Visonu]

Ritchie was manager of Huddersfield for 1 season

[ammypam]

Interesting editing. Where's Nick Henry's shot that hit the bar, bounced over the line and the perfectly -placed ref waves play on? Censorship.

[kezncurt]

fa cup semi 1990 was 3-3. replay finished 2-1 to man utd. both at maine road.

fa cup 1994 was 1-1 at wembley. replay finished 4-1 or 4-0 to man utd. at maine road.

those facts are from a kopite by the way, ha ha.

[tonydinnozzo]

carm down league one fans

[tomj782]

It's 'calm', stupid cockney wanker.

[DaveBond21]

The first match finished 3-3.

[xvaughanx]

damn mark hughes this wouldnt have happend if it wasnt for you

[Simpobee]

That semi final was 4 years after this one mate.

[xvaughanx]

yeah, my flat mate posted that last one

[bruntacus]

Ah great memories... Barry Davies, Mark Robins, Mike Phelan. (not so much the latter...)

[BriteUK]

"The ref was a united season ticket holder as well."

Same old sheet with the scum.

[DJM3189]

The ref was a united season ticket holder as well.

[ricskull]

red fucking cunts. all twats

[Jamesoafc]

I was born 6 months after this and I've never seen Nick Henry's goal on any of the highlight videos. I've ehard enough about it though.

[stonerose99]

why dont these highlights show Nicky Henry's 'goal' that hit the crossbar and landed behind the line ??

[ammypam]

Because it was posted by a red, re-editing history.

[Zorg2006]

I thought that was in the first match?

[lt8653]

I remember this, I was only very little but it was heartbreak :(
