Quote: Freddie Miller. "I was there at the opposite end from where Hutton kicked the winning goal and was on the pitch as soon as the match finished. This started a great run for Hull as the team was Championship runners up in season 56/57,won it again in 57/58, followed by Wembley in 58/59 and 59/60. Went to all these matches.
I have only seen Man United play once in England - in 1962 against Benfica under lights in a friendly. There was a full stadium but cannot remember the attendance. Last July I went to see them play a friendly in Sydney which drew a full house of around 84,000. A couple of days before this game 10,000 paid to watch them train!'"
Yes, I too saw all of those FC games. I was 14 when we played at Maine Road and had to watch the first few minutes on TV in someone's house as my dad had fallen and hurt his ankle. Like a good Hessle Roader, he limped to the ground and we were able to enjoy one of our club's finest days.
