Whittles goal was a classy curler when curlers were not the vogue.
I was there!

Tomorrow is probably the best chance we'll have to hammer them for another 30 years.
The 3-0 late in the 90/91 season also springs to mind. |

That is a fair point. I'll ask your opinion on Friday.

It was just before their cup winners cup final and the whole ground chanting Barcelona is a good memory.

I was 8 years old at the time, in my early days of going to Palace.
My daughter will be with me on Saturday (we're season ticket holders)… She's 8 years old, in her early days of going to Palace.

A classic, but as I remember it, Man U were all over the place that day. They looked totally shell-shocked. Don Rogers was fantastic, as were the whole team. The pitch was a quagmire but that didn't seem to trouble Don
What I wouldn't give for a similar result on Saturday!

Man U were in a state of real turmoil near the bottom of the league when we won 5-0 so totally different from now, and no chance of a repeat. We can't score more than 3 goals in a game and usually it's one or two. We have only scored one v Chelski and Liverpool against the top sides this season. They are almost bound to score so maybe a draw would be good realistically.

I remember the 3-0, just. Their keeper that day (who I think was a reserve) dropped the ball in front of Wright (or was it Bright) and he tapped it in. I can't remember the other goals though I thought Salako scored but I was only 13 at the time.

at 5:57 It was a convincing and enjoyable end to our most successful season - thrashing them like that, but i wouldn't say it was as satisfying as the score suggests for two reasons. One: you knew United were at half speed seeing as they had the Cup Winners Cup Final against Barca coming up in midweek; plus that hollow feeling of nothing to show for an unbelievable season with us being well and truely cheated out of a European spot. For me, that game or the Carling Cup win at Old Trafford 2 years ago have not been proper satisfying revenge on that club. Tomorrow just may well be though.

I remember the 3-0, I had a dream we beat Utd 4-0, and had a fair few bets on the outcome correct score plus accumlators based on the dream. At 3-0 I was looking at a pay out of a couple of thousand if we scored again, Andy Gray broke through the defence minutes to go I was screaming goal and the twat missed never have forgiven him. Ended up about £3 better of from the cover bet of a simple win. The 5-0 is one of the top games of all time certainly in the top three I was there and occasionally look at the video happy days.

That was superb, thanks. I used to have the videos of the season reviews of the early 90's and watch them regularly. Bought back some great memories. |

Anyone know the palace team and sub for this match?
Obviously Mulligan, Rogers and Whittle but who else? I am guessing something like: Jackson Mulligan Cannon Blyth Wall Rogers Craven Whittle Hughes Tambling ? I am mostly guessing TBH from players of around that era?

Please make this scoreline happen again on Saturday.
Failing that I'll take a 1 nil win |

Whatever happened to the good old 2-3-5? Still a highlight all these years on
