Tinmansleftboot Posted December 5, 2005 Report Share Posted December 5, 2005 I've managed to get in touch with two Manchester United historians in the wake of George Best's recent passing.I asked them both if George had ever played a competative match against City at the Gate.Their response suprised me. Apparently they could find NO record of Best playing against City in any competative match for any team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rumbellow Posted December 5, 2005 Report Share Posted December 5, 2005 This is true, I can remember him playing against the gas at least 3 times, Once for Manu at Eastville in a league cup game (I think) and Twice for Fulham (once at Eastville&once at the cottage).

Rich-TWSC- Posted December 5, 2005 Report Share Posted December 5, 2005 Obviously as Swindon were a lower league team he never appeared in a first team match against us either.But he did play at the County Ground though, in the 1964 (I think) Youth Cup Final for Manchester United vs. Swindon.
