I studied in Manchester from '81 - '85 and was a semi-regular at Old Trafford during that period - those far-off days when it used to cost about 2.50 to stand up and you could usually just turn up on the afternoon / evening and pay at the turnstiles.

All very pre-Ferguson (Fat Ron was the Manager back then).

I still have a load of old ManUre programmes of that vintage, and have also often wondered if they'd be worth anything now. They're probably worth more than all my '80s / '90s Sheffield Wednesday programmes anyway !laugh!.

I once had the Arsenal v Man U programme from 1958 which was the last game the Busby babes played in England together. I took it to one of these programme fairs and sold it for ?8.00. Although it wasn't in brand new condition being 35ish years old, I still feel I was ripped off somewhat.

Well next time wait until you are "proper" grown up - trying to sell stuff at the tender age of 35 you fully deserve to be ripped off ...

1958? Mid 80s? You mean Sky never invented football?

Burn them!

But then I would say that being a Liverpool supporter lol

No, they should be worth a bit, but you'd have to find the right buyer

To be honest I've thought of slinging a few things.Not that they're worth that much,maybe a few cans.video recorder,Dell monitor,computer desk,antique reference books etc etc

Do you mean the woman called Alex? If it's true he used to beat her,then that is wrong.I'm sure they got divorced.I bet she couldn't wait to get rid of the surname of such a brute and disassociate herself from him by going back to her maiden name - can't remember what it is.
