5-1 or 6-1...

Postby Dronny » Sun Oct 23, 2011 7:36 pm

..which means more?

We've lived off the 5-1 for so long because it was a beacon to us in a period of uncertainty, will the 6-1 ever eclipse it?

Probably not.
I expected us to score four today. In 89 I went thinking we'd get leathered.

6.1 is a massive statement and even if the score is a bit wild it reflects the fact that we are the better team NOW.

The 5.1 was massive but it could be argued it was just one of those games.

We have now gone 5.1 at Spurs,4 nil v BBurn in away games already this year so I don't think wins/scores like this have to be one offs.

My point Doug, the 5-1 was a one off and meant so much because it was SO out of the ordinary. I believe that with the team we have now these scores will become the norm ( may be not beating the filth 6-1). I will never forget that day in Sept 89 and nor will I forget today but I think think '89 might linger longer!

Before the 5-1 we were shite, they were good, nobody gave us a hope in hell. It was more of a shock and surprise than today and therefore meant more to the fans at the time.

Today was pretty good though.

Funniley enough i said today that the 89 result was better merely because of how we were in the league at the time.

The fact that we did this away from home makes it better than the 5-1 at Maine Road in my opinion. Not to mention all the records that we obliterated with this result

We inflicted United’s biggest home defeat on them since 1955; equal biggest since 1927!

Today wasn't necessarily a one-off, in some ways that makes it more special. This changes things because it's not a freak result, it's just a good one.

It may meld into one of many good days, but it's still symbolic. The 5-1 stands out as a lesser peak in a barren and featureless landscape.

I think I saw a guy leave after 89 minutes so the victory was soured for me.

And if that wasn't enough, the whiskey soaked red faced (even redder than usual today) old fart has admitted on camera that today was his worst moment as a manager.

The 6-1 for me.

To completely and utterly thrash them in front of 70,000 of their own near silent fans was even better than my wildest dreams.

Prepare for that record to be smashed as well.
