  • The relegation of Manchester United, from the top tier of English football in 1974, was a seismic football event, evidence of the enormous decline and mismanagement which took place in the wake of their European Cup triumph in '68.

    I can remember this season (just!). Manchester Uniteds fall from grace coincided with York City's best ever season and, for one brief year, they were both in the same division. York's game at Old Trafford is still the largest crowd to ever watch a York City match.

      @Mr Clean They always used to score with less than twenty minutes left. They were all players from the Greek league, playing against Zidane, Henry, Nedved, Ronaldo etc. So basically defending for the last couple of minutes was the smartest thing to do. They put on a defensive masterclass in the quarter final and the final. They were the ultimate underdogs of the competition and they won the title by beating the best countries in Europe. It was one of the most beautiful stories of the history of football. Period.

    As many would remember, the home defeat to rivals Manchester City was the final nail in the coffin, with regards to Manchester United's relegation, and the goal that did it was scored by none other than former United favourite Denis Law, with a cheeky back-heel no less. There was no trademark arm-in-the-air celebration. He felt so bad and responsible about causing United's relegation that not even his City team-mates who crowded around him could do anything about it. It's a moment that would still haunt him over thirty years later. He was substituted soon after and later on, the fans invaded the pitch in droves, perhaps in hopes of a replay of the penultimate match. Yet, the 0-1 result stood. Here's the kicker, neither Denis Law nor many other fans realized that it wasn't his goal that confirmed United's relegation. His goal was inconsequential as the relegation was due to results elsewhere, meaning had United won City, they would have still gone down.

      I was there. Law scored and then trudged back to the halfway line with the air of a man who had just run over a nun on a zebra crossing - he shrugged off his City team mates when they tried to congratulate him. As it happened United would have been relegated even if they had beaten City, as results elsewhere went against them.
      Their last game in Div One that season was at Stamford Bridge where they beat Chelsea 3-1. I was there too.
      The solitary season in Div Two was no disaster - United attracted bigger crowds to their home games than any club in Div One and bounced straight back up

    You can see certain parallels between when SAF left and when SMB left, both had players from the old era holding the team back, but where the influence of Sir Matt made the job of future managers more difficult, the issue with the current team was more managers working too hard to scrub the influence of Sir Alex and stamp their own identity on the squad, (Sir Alex has largely stayed away from the first team, unless asked by the manager to get involved) and where in the past it took relegation to reinvent themselves, it's taken a former player to reintroduce Sir Alex's style of play to get the team playing closer to their potential.

    Kent born United fan here: millionaire for a pound every time called a glory hunter. This relegation season was the year I made my choice as a 7 yr old, inspired by the story of Munich and the Busby Babes. My dad teased me that I'd change my mind after the relegation was confirmed but that's not me. I loved the Doc's 70's side and was off my food for a week after losing to Southampton in the '76 final. Relegation wasn't my low point: Mourinho was. It's so good to have United back. It's not the winning, though that's great. It's the intent. Play your way. Play to score. Play to attack. Play with pace. Wonderful.

    I was four years old, so do not remember it. My step dad brought three suitcases back home for me in 1980 full of complete seasons of MUFC programs. Seasons from the late 40s thru 1978. I read them all over and over. When I was 16 we moved to NZ from Milton Keynes and they sold them in a jumble sale. Would have been worth a pretty penny by now. The thing is though, those programs made me well aware of the post Busby slump and thought similar was possible after Fergie. The manager round about after Fergie is almost an action replay. We always come back, so i am not worried.

    The best thing about Man U being relegated (yes, there is something better than Man U being relegated) was Carlisle United being promoted to Division One for the one and only time in their history, and actually leading the league for a couple of weeks. Would love to see both events happen again one day.

    Martin Buchan is pronounced 'Buckan' not 'Bewkan' and Sammy McIlroy is 'mackilroy' not 'mac ilry'. Other than that this is very professional with great graphics. Though no mention of the final match of 73-74 against City, Denis Law's famous backheeled goal, no celebration, and last kick in league football as he was immediately substituted - that seemed odd.
