	Ok, this is for guys and gals. I support Manchester United. I was named after my uncle who lived in Manchester, right next to Old Trafford. Apparently when I was very young he would come home and sit me on his lap and chatter away to my Da about Man U. My Da was a great Man U fan as well. That was er................ 1950's when the Busby Babes were at their peak. My Da (RIP) before he passed away gave me a colour photo taken from the back of an Evening Herald in 1957 of the Busby Babes when they played Dalymount. Have that framed and is a prized possession. So as I grew up into the 60's I was totally gone on Man U and then Best, Law, Charlton came along. I remember running all the way up Collins Ave having been at "Solidarity" (remember that stuff) in Donnycarney Church to get home in time to see the 1969 European Cup final. Still have a souvenier from that final. Anyway we then had the barren 70's and 80's when we won the odd Cup Final which was great. And then the glorious 90's and now.....................
