Manchester United v Barcelona - Last Three Minutes

Manchester United's European Cup Semi Final Second Leg against Barcelona at Old Trafford on 29th April 2008

The final 3 minutes of this great game were captured on video. Watch as the fans wait anxiously for the final whistle. A stunning goal from Paul Scholes gave Manchester United a famous 1-0 win over Barcelona.

Stretford End Ticker Banner Gone

The famous banner hanging from the Stretford End at Old Trafford showing the number of years since Manchester City last won a trophy has been removed. It's a very sad day for Stretford Enders, but do not worry, a new version will be up for the Blackpool home game on Sunday, when Manchester United lift their 19th League Championship trophy. Manchester City should hang their heads in shame, when they compare themselves to United's glorious football history.

19 (Manchester United Version)

N-n-n-n-n-nineteen. Paul Hardcastle's Vietnam song 19, has become Manchester United's new anthem. Be sure to sing it when you meet any Liverpool fans. In the video you can see all 19 of United's great Championships.

Man United fans have mounted an internet campaign to send Paul Hardcastle's 1985 hit 19 to No1 in the charts!

Manchester United 4 Benfica 1 (1968 European Cup)

Did You Know?

Manchester United became the first English team to win the European Cup (1968), as Matt Busby's boys battered the Portuguese champions, on a glorious night at Wembley.

The scorer of United's third goal in the final, Brian Kidd, was celebrating his 19th birthday that day.

Denis Law (The Stretford End King), was unable to play because of a knee injury and had to watch the match on television in hospital.

George Best was named European Footballer of the Year in 1968. It was 40 years until another United player claimed the award, when Cristiano Ronaldo won it in 2008.

Manchester United 19 Liverpool 18

Champions 19 Times

This M6 Motorway sign says it all. Manchester United 19 Liverpool 18. Follow the signs and you will be on your way home to the Champions. Only 19 miles to paradise!

Sir Alex Ferguson tries to play it down, but he finally has "knocked Liverpool off their perch". That's no easy feat considering the League title score was only 18-7 when he took over at Manchester United.

Manchester United Champions of England No.19

Dream No.19 for Alex Ferguson and his Red Devils. The Stretford End salutes the United immortals.

Manchester United 3 Barcelona 0 (21st March 1984)

Old Trafford on European nights was and still is a unique and intimidating atmosphere for opposing teams.

About this video:
Manchester United were trailing 2-0 in the Cup Winners Cup quarter final against Barcelona. On the 21st March 1984, a roar from the capacity crowd at Old Trafford of 58,350 greeted both teams as they walked onto the pitch for the second leg. On that magical European night Manchester United battered Barcelona and won the game 3-0. In this video you can see some great footage of the old Stretford End and old Scoreboard End in action.

I Was Born In The Stretford End

You sing this classic Stretford Ender's song to the tune of "I Was Born Under A Wandering Star"

I was born in the Stretford End,
I was born in the Stretford End,
Boots are made for bootin',
Scarves are made to wave,
If you see a City fan,
You put him in his grave.

I was born in the Stretford End,
I was born in the Stretford End,
Do you know where hell is?
Hell is at Maine Road,
Heaven's when United go there,
To score a load of goals.

I was born under the Stretford End,
Georgie was made to dribble,
Bobby was made to pass,
Denis was there to stick one in,
We've scored a goal at last.

I was born in the Stretford End,
The Stretford, Stretford End.

We are the Champions!!

We are the Champions (nearly) my friends. And we'll keep on fightin' till the end. We are the Champions. We are the Champions. No time for losers (Chelsea), Cos we are the Champions of the world!!!

MANCHESTER UNITED 2 Chelsea 1 (Hernández,Vidic).

Manchester United's prospects of a record 19th league title improved considerably thanks to a sensational first-half performance in their top-of-the-table clash with Chelsea at Old Trafford. (8th May 2011)

Manchester United need just ONE point from their last 2 games (Blackburn and Blackpool) to claim a record 19th League Title. Then Manchester United will truly be the greatest English football team of all time.

19 is the magic number!

Alex Ferguson has won 11 championships with Manchester United already, and he wants another one. Don't we all! It will not be long now, dear Stretford Enders. 19 really is the magic number. 19 Championships that is. One more than Liverpool, one more for the mighty Red Devils.

United Review: Once in a lifetime experience!
It's an award-winning tourist destination, a magnificent stadium, an interesting day out and home to the most successful team in English football.

The stadium tour is excellent. It starts in the trophy room (which is obviously very full) and museum, your guide then leads you inside the 'Theatre of Dreams' to take in the awe-inspiring view of the England's second biggest stadium in all its glory. There are plenty of photo ops aside the pitch here. You then head down to pitchside where you can sit in the dugout a-la Sir Alex, before heading back outside to learn a bit more about United's moving and romantic history as you walk beneath the Munich clock and through the tunnel to take the players' entrance. This leads you into the players' lounge and then the changing rooms where you can have your photo taken aside your favourite player's shirt. Then it's time for food in the great Red Cafe, and obviously the tour ends in the megastore where you can fill your boots with Manchester United logo-emblazoned anything.
