[@stephenbone7034]

Brave goal keeping by Bob Wilson,was at this game great memories

[@garryfaulkner7639]

I was at this game with my dad great days great stadium I know we have to move on but miss these football's days where money was not everything come on you Gunners.

[@martinsawyer8175]

notice how there are no advertising hoardings around the ground. Those were the days

[@garytaylor4971]

I was at this game as a 9 year old with my dad. Up the clock end stood on top of a little foot stool snuggly pressed up against a crash barrier. Rosette was bigger than me ! Great memories.

[@rjay1340]

54,000Pplus , they were the days and proper atmosphere , COYG, ATID , !!!

[@celticwarrior1365]

All players with household names that I could pronounce as a child!

[@Papdog1]

I miss Highbury. Until Arsenal actually win something in the Emirates era this will be the hallowed ground.

[@markhilbert6573]

Arsenal have won stuff now but the emerites will never be home.

[@videosrus8631]

Hitch-hiked but got to the ground too late and was locked out until they opened the gates at the Clock End with 15 minutes to go. Missed all the goals but at least I got to see Peter Marinello run rings round George Best.

[@thebest1963]

brilliant.......this was the first game i ever went to when i was 6 years old........Highbury- the football ground in the world.......up the Arsenal.

[@seefeelsixtynine]

53 years ago! massive crowd at Highbury

[@TheSpikehere]

Bertie Mee knew what he was doing when he offloaded Ian Ure to Old Trafford. He wasn't fit to clean Bill Foulkes's boots, let alone step into them.

[@converse91970]

Great post, I have seen highlights of this match in colour as well!

[@jetlifari]

Always great watching Arsenal beat ManU, no matter when and where!

[@mickfoskett6629]

jetlifari ..yeh enjoy it cos it doesn't happen that much!!👹

[@johngooner3576]

Great footage cheers

[@richardphillips6392]

How are both teams playing in black and white? Wouldn't happen today,

[@MrGranfield]

John Radford should have won more than one England cap.

[@markstanbra6869]

MrGranfield he did he got 2 v romania 1969 & switzerland 1972

[@philipraiswell3570]

Ray Kennedy, great player!

[@celticwarrior1365]

Philip Raiswell God bless him! RIP Ray!

[@Caskchap]

Kennedy and Rashford much to good for Uniteds ageing defense. The attack and midfield were over the top too with the exception of Morgan and Georgie but Georgie had given up by this time and was finding solace in alcohlol. How easy to see 50 years later that the club needed a new manager and fresh blood.

[@tomhalltravel]

54,117. And United were tonked 3-1 at Old Trafford as the Gunners marched to the first of three imperious domestic doubles.

[@sekillick]

Went to both games. Happy days!

[@davidpollard3298]

Ian Ure. Clearly a defender who didn't believe in tackling or closing an opponent down.

[@alanmctavish4802]

How did best manage to get that header in? And up with a swerve on it. Only george could of did that. I thought? did i just see that right there? It was amazing how he got his head to the ball never mind nearly scoring with it!

[@johnpacino007]

Incredible! i had too rewind to see how he did it. It was so quick!

[@martinsimmons9246]

Poor old David Sadler, he was having a bad enough day even before having to go in goal!

[@Caskchap]

United were so poor by this time, lots of players past their best and others who were never good enough. This is what happens when you hardly sign a player between 1964 and 69. Why was that allowed to happen? Kennedy and Radford were a great forward duo, even George Graham looked semi mobile here, he was totally immobile by the time he came to OT a couple of seasons later. It didn't take the Doc long to buy a hard uncompromising centre half, Pity Big Jim Holton wasn"t playing this day.

[@edmundpower1250]

Strange there was very muted celebrations for Radford's second goal it was celebrated as if it was a consolation goal in a pre season friendly weird

[@tdonovan4735]

Yeah - I noticed that, too. I honestly thought that the goal had been disallowed for offside, or something - and that the tv pictures did not show the linesman flagging but the fans had seen it . Very strange reaction by thousands of people

[@johnwilliams2479]

When players score now their over dramatic, they slide on their knees to the corner flag every single time pathetic, they have also been under mind control from leftie teachers since birth to obey, at none critical theory institutions, imagine players entertaining this nonsense now days, what a fab stadium Highbury was, I was their in 63 Drawing 4 -4 with Spurs, their must of been over 70 thousand their that Wednesday night, A scam was going on with the chaps on the turnstiles

[@garrywood5345]

Utd hammered and yet 12 months later With practically the same Team..without Ure Surged 5pts clear at the Top of the table by Xmas!!

[@redflag8970]

i think that was the following season not this one

[@garrywood5345]

That's what I said, the 71/72 season followed this one.And utd Had a Great first half season

[@redflag8970]

@@garrywood5345 ye sorry bud so udid

[@seanscanlon9067]

Much can depend on the teams you play within a certain run of games and then what happens once you start facing the better teams.

[@zansportsnewstv473]

Only if Arsenal played like that these day's.

[@MrJeepsters]

Ce john Radford joue comme jouait Allan Smiths

[@davidwainwright2816]

Ian Ure......🙄🙈

[@MrLawman10]

one for the cameras Bob at 03.08, united were crap in those days, Ian Ure in defence, ageing players, dunne, stiles, charlton, crap squad players, edwards , fitzpatrick, what chance did we have.

[@nguyendailam6703]

There used to be a football club there.

[@jimmybalantyne5545]

There.

[@davidpollard4051]

Bet Arsenal pissed themselves selling Ian Ure to United and then he plays like this.

[@redwhiteanddynamiteafc4914]

shut the fuck up you bitch.

[@vendyneutron]

arsenal is cool

[@dankierson]

Bad flicker when playing this.

[@RICHTAYL]

Ditto, & ditto! Man U in Blue & White..

[@josephazzopardi322]

All goals came from crosses. This Arsenal side would finish mid-table nowadays.

[@bandwagon22]

Just check how George Best blundered his chance to score a goal. How pathetic.

[@pauladaly]

scored with loads of Miss Worlds though

[@lordsummerisle3139]

Probably scored with your ma
