An epic Second Division promotion clash, & wasn't it voted MOTD's "match of the season" for 1974-75? There were more than 60,000 inside OT for the game, I just wish I could have been one of them!

I was in the 5 Sunderland supporters that took penalties on the pitch against the Man Utd Supporters at 2-30 before the game and again at half time WHAT AN EXPERIENCE THAT WAS !!!
