Was that the Fairs Cup game? Great game. Never seen so many flags and banners in the Street End as there was that night. The United player on Bally's right I think was their RB on the night, a dirty little **** called Fitzpatrick.

Can't remember playing them in the inter city fairs cup which I believe was the forerunner of the UEFA cup. Remember Fitzpatrick. But think loads of teams had a tough right back. Smith RS, us sandy brown, chelsea chopper Harris, leeds reaney think they would have been sent off every game nowadays.We missed Europe a few times in the 60s and 70s due to UEFA only allowing one team from a city into the competition. And the RS used to finish above us. Think that was the rule anyway.

Ah just checked google. We played them 1965. 1-1 at their place. 1-2 at goodison
 
The Fairs Cup Tie at Old Trafford was my first trip to an "away" European tie, not exactly a long way and I certainly did not need my passport
