Excellent book, but !!!!!! June 10, 2008 This is without doubt an excellent book, but as the book went into such detail, i think it lacks in 2 areas.
When subs came on in a game, the book should have stated who was taken off....it doesn't!!!
When the goalscorers for each game are given, there is no mention of whether the goal was from open play or a penalty. In other words, where a goal was scored from a penalty, it doesn't state that it was a penalty.

This is just the most astonishing stats book I've ever seen. If you're a United fan and/or are into stats you have to have this book. Not only is there a teamsheet for every competitive United game ever played (nearly 5000 of them) plus attendance, scorers, subs etc; but also another 800 (yes, EIGHT HUNDRED) pages of stats cross-referenced every way you could imagine. United's results on every day of the year; a listing of which teams each United player has played every one of his games against and in which competitions; and so much more. It has just got to be the most comprehensive collection of United stats that could ever be assembled and is absolutely fascinating in the depth of information presented. Want to know anything about United's matches or players - it's all in this book. An unbelievable book and an ABSOLUTE MUST-BUY. Could be the best 12 I've ever spent. And a proportion of the royalties go to charity as well !!
