    Top Red...;)

    Duncan Edwards scores his first league goal against Blackpool on New year's day in the 54/55 season.

    The match ended 4-1 to United.

    @ Tom, was that when he was playing for Citeh? Think I read the match was called off after the first half and Citeh lost the replay. :D

    Ok, in honour of the Euros. When was the last time United played a competitive match in Austria and what was the name of the stadium then?

    Nope. Here's a clue, the stadium was named after a Hollywood star at the time. :D
