[@fredj755]

My memories of going to OT in the seventies. Queuing to get in the Stretford End down United Road. The train stalling (fans bouncing) outside OT after United scored two late goals against Chelsea. Singing all the players names before kick off until they waved.Bomb scares. Stewart Houston kicking the ball in the United Road stand every game. Doc Martins, scarfs round wrists, beer passed down the Stretford End, wagon wheels, scoreboard paddock, stretford paddock, wooden stands, fencing, big games turnstiles locked at half one, crushed against barriers. Sunderland 3-2 62,000. The banter in the Stretford (we are the left side). Sitting on the side of the pitch against Blackpool. LMTB, token sheets, the tunnel, Hill, Coppell, Pearson, Daly, Albiston, Big Jim, Buchan, Forsyth. Happy days but there have been many happy days at OT since.

[@rubenfrankish]

Great work on these videos man. Awesome to hear these kind of stories!

[@robertmacphee5]

this was such a great insight, thank you

[@MyNameIsKhan25]

Great video watched all of it. Love getting to know more about the history of my favourite club. Learnt quite a lot thank you! ☺

[@Jor_dan.]

Top video mate, looking forward to the Munich video.. My great grandad told me about Munich and the aftermath but that was from Ireland, so I'm interested to hear about what it was like in the city! 🔴

[@tezwhitby5097]

Outstanding Stephen. Really enjoyed this! Can't wait for Mondays documentary now 👍

[@ranabirmitra]

One of best videos, seriously - your grand-dad deserves a series of videos where talks about each decade (provided he likes the idea and he's up for it).. looking forward to the Munich Doc - Keep it Howsons!!

[@adammaxwell1700]

Fantastic show Howson. Great insight into times I was never alive to hear about. Great watch 👌🏻👌🏻

[@theoc84]

Brilliant podcast. Worth the wait. Great memories he has. Really looking forward to the Munich one.

[@nicolalewis6289]

fantastic chat howson, many thanks to your grandad. He's the type of football fan worth listening to, and it's great hearing things from a guy who was there at the time. Sadly my grandad didn't live long enough to tell me about watching the 50's 60's team so great to listen to yours. can't wait for the munich doc. great job

[@cdekk3r]

I would like to know what was really like to be a United supporter throughout the 70s-80s, trophy droughts and seeing Liverpool dominate the league and European stage

[@StephenHowson]

+Ridhuan Abu Bakar maybe my Dad is better for that. Or one of my uncles

[@d1want34]

Stephen Howson FC in future interviews maybe? i read that United got the highest avg attendance even when they're in Div. 2 right? they are very loyal fans

[@pauloconnell7971]

Ridhuan Abu Bakar it was awful, my son cannot understand why I hate Liverpool so much, they ruined my childhood..

[@pauloconnell7971]

Ridhuan Abu Bakar we did, great season, home and away, stormed it, schoolkids going all over the country, on our paper round money..

[@StephenHowson]

[@Pigeon55]

Even in the mid 60s it was common practice to go Old Trafford one week and Maine Rd the next, travelling to away games was too expensive for working class supporters as a whole.

[@StephenHowson]

+Pigeon55 yep - simply wouldn't happen now.

[@FlexAdu]

You're Grandfather's a legend Howson great video do this more often with him

[@davidcuthbert16]

[@downinalbion83]

United's history is built on fans like your grandad. It was great to watch. I recorded an interview last October with my grandad Tom about United, Duncan Edwards and the Munich air crash. He's been going to united since the early 1930's. I've put the link here if you want to take a look. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gWasmKWEhK6Ai7s
