Running Down The Wing, Hear United Sing…
 |
| As the season moves towards its climax, with dreams of both a second Championship in a row and a European Cup Final in Moscow tantalisingly close, but still just out of reach (we think one wise old sage once christened it “squeaky bum time”), we’ve tried to relieve the tension and brought out over a dozen new designs celebrating both Reds and Manchester United triumphs past and present. |
|
| First of all, we’ve got (another) tribute to our personal most cherished of Red legends. Eric Cantona composed entirely on his signature number seven. We’ve also got the classic Stone Roses Union Jack design, re-worked for the Republic of Mancunia. The flag of Cuba, in Manchester United colours and in the Stone Roses-style. |
|
| Another Manchester t-shirt design, this time defining the great city’s place in the world - the first thing that God created when he’d finished with all the heavens and the oceans and the light and all that malarkey. Also now available once more, the classic 26/05/99 treble design celebrating United’s greatest ever triumph and last European Cup final and victory. |
|
| People have been asking for a Viva Ronaldo t-shirt design for ages, so we’ve brought out two. Our first shows the young United superstar in celebratory pose, accompanied by the lyrics to the song of the moment. We’ve also got a new Tevez t-shirt design, based on the iconic gangster film Carlito’s Way. |
|
| Our second Viva Ronaldo t-shirt is also based on one of our favourite gangster flicks, this time Scarface. In addition, if you are not yet bored of new United t-shirts, we’ve put our own definition of exactly what a “bitter” is on a t-shirt as well. |
|
| We’ve also created a new range of iconic Manchester United line-ups from the most famous matches in the history of our great club. We’ll br adding more in the future (let us know any classic matches or XIs that you’d like to see featured), but to start off with we’ve got the 1968 European Cup Winners, the 1977 FA Cup Winners, the 1985 FA Cup Winners and, of course, the team that did the Treble in Barcelona 1999. |
|
| Finally, but definitely not least, we’ve gone retro with a Rotterdam 1991 design showing a diagram of Mark Hughes’ winning goal against Barcelona in the European Cup Final (Barcelona seems like a nit of a theme this week). We’ve also got a new DVD on sale from Retro Videos: The Scousebusters DVD features extended highlights of the epic FA Cup semi-finals against Liverpool from 1985, as well as the final of the competition where Norman Whiteside curled one to win the cup against Everton for 10-man United. |
| Now….on to Chelsea this weekend and Barcelona next week. It’s great being a Red, isn’t it? |
