United We Stand: it's Reds, you lose for Big Ron

This may be difficult for younger fans to fully absorb but Manchester United once went an extraordinarily long time between League titles.

In the 17 years since the inauguration of the Premier League in 1992-93 the Red Devils have dominated, taking the title 11 times... but after their League Championship win in 1967 United didn’t finish top again for a long, barren 26 years.  

Standing room only in this set from Panini’s ‘Football 83’ where we catch United ‘between Championships’… 16 years since the last one with a decade to go until the next one.

Big Ron says: “Put your right foot on the ball.”

You lose, Scott.

No hang on, Arthur Albiston is disqualified for being Kevin Moran…
