The video tape must have got tangled up in red tape. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

The club had a habit of promising things back then and not delivering.

Shame. Would have liked to have seen that.
I know Wigan Athletic's footage from their Russian tour the previous year survived and made it on to their season review tape.

To be fair no one had mentioned the curtain dividing East and West being made of Iron when they promised that.

One of the programmes from the 1991 tour games makes for an interesting translation .. the line ups and such like are correct but from memory the league table it includes features Division Two and our old friends from Oakwell ๐Ÿคฃ

My favourite memory of MC is not a goal, but the great run down the wing and cross for Super JF to knock in the winner at York.
Pandemonium ensued. :P
