We forgot our kit and had to play in skins That's just what they told Gordon Sharrock, in reality they lost a bet after having too much Columbian marching powder and pints of tigers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smiley Posted December 21, 2004 Author Share Posted December 21, 2004 25th March 1957 Bolton at United for first floodlit game United, with it being the first game under their new floodlights and being the home team decided to play in white. But they didn't let Bolton know who turned up with their usual kit and so had to play in United's red kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
