Athletic and Town merged in 1997 to form United, and United folded during the 2013-14 season.

Step 4 - level 8

And I can still remember Shilton making his debut when Banks (of England) was called up for an international and postponements weren't allowed unless three players were to be absent.

**** international weekends. **** the modern game!




Shilton's game was against Everton at home if I recall correctly. Won it 3-0. No idea what I had for me tea last night!

Or who won the Premier League in 2016.

And rightly so! That's the problem will goalkeepers, if you've got two great players in any other position you find a way to get them in the team but one of these was going to have to be sold. They made the right decision
