Daley was much faster than Ash more able to dribble however the end product was  usually crap!

I remember that season for many reasons but 1 was winning an accumulator bet  i had on Swindon. To get relegated, fiinish bottom and concede 100 goals. First two were never in doubt  however it needed 2 gaols  by Leeds  ( Danny Wallace) in the last 10 minutes of the last game of the season to get to 100.

I remember seeing a Swindon fan crying after this. Sorry to say I laughed, I was 13 and cruel. You'd have thought they were used to it that season

Swindon were terrible, weren't they?

Nice crossing from Tony, Tony Daley. Could someone send the link to Ashley Young?

I was just about to post this link myself! Great stuff. This made it on to volume one of the Premier League Classic Matches DVD sets  i found in HMV the other week. Five disks in each box yet we only feature on the first disk of the first volume, the games featuring us are this one and Everton at home from 2002 (Hendrie 2, Dublin). Man United are on EVERY single disk at least once.
Anyway, a great game vs Swindon, a week or two before the epic Tranmere second leg. Amazing to think we were second favourites for the FA Cup back then!

Yes Jon Sheffield who wore no. 40. I remember the away fixture at Swindon that season, Shaun Teale Man of Steel scored the equalizer after Ehiogu gave them a penalty and the winner came from Dalian Atkinson who'd done sod all else the rest of the afternoon. Happy days.
