Tremendous. Went through as a 14 year old with my pal on the Bensons Arabs bus. What a day & what a City Square party the next day. 🧡🖤

To this day the bedsit has that cup final winning photo adorning the living room wall their victory paid for the deposit of the property.I was single at the time but any burd unfortunate to enter the bedsit was telt early that the framed photie would be there till the hoose got repossessed or i passed away.

I moved into the bedsit in October 1994 and the picture has only ever left the wall during redecoration,many years ago my partner said,"Can we no just put that in the lobby or the ootside lavy?."I replied,"If it wiznie for that team up there not one of us would be standing in this room so the answer is no."

The subject has never come up again,WASC with a FACT,BTW i won just over £1250,having witnessed 6 big cup defeats i still to this day wonder why i was so confident considering it was the longest shot since the 74 final.
We were up against Glasgow Rangers going for a double treble and were 4/1 underdogs but i just knew we were gonna blow the witches curse to smithereens.

I remember getting us 7/1 to lift cup and 7/1 Brewster to score the only goal 🤣🤣🤣😁,what a night I still couldn’t take it in lol 🧡🖤❤️ and it was great seeing people I knew were huns 😁

I was in Barcelona in the gods of the Camp Nou with my late father and i honestly thought that night would never be surpassed following the Terrors,you will not be surprised to read that i got a flight to the Costa Brava and he took the bus as usual.

After witnessing them 6 cup final defeats together we both agreed that the 21st of May 1994 was our greatest ever day following United,i have fond memories of him and the Maddy fae Kirkcaldy arm in arm in tears climbing them Hampden steps after that elusive trophy was lifted.

To younger Arabs looking in i highly recommend the book Kissing Strangers by Gwen Mcilroy,every chapter is the story of either a player,fan,wife or official that day we won the cup for the first time.

Its the best United book i have ever read,my FAV chapter is the story by Ricky Ross,his father had passed away during the cup run and they had always went to the games together.

He is climbing the stairs at the main entrance of Hampden before the match thinking about his father not being by his side and he hears thousands of fellow Arabs belting out his song Dignity,OYF,FACT with a WASC.
