I was 9 on the day that this edition of The Big Match was aired. Happy days and fond memories of Sunday afternoons back then thanks to this channel my friend.
McDougall was a good player but he is a in the box goalscorer & when he went to Man U they didn't provide the ball for him as they were awful then. But he went to Norwich & S'hampton & scored goals. A good solid player.
The indignation of the journalist asking is he worth £200,000. Wonder what they’d make of today’s transfer fees. Belllingham for €100 million (or maybe even more)?
Most of the city fans probably came from Brentford area they supported man utd a few years back or was it Liverpool anyway they would struggle to know where Manchester is let alone city's ground 🤣🤦
Harry Redknapp used to be a professional footballer then? I did wonder... They'd spent a lot of money on a stand which was never finished (Bond's Folly) hence Bournemouth and Boscombe's need to offload McDougall.
@@LeighRichards27 Yes he looked very cumbersome alongside Best Law Charlton etc on some of the games i have seen him play on You Tube while at Old Trafford.
The Evening News headline was 'United Sign Goal Ace MacDougall.' I went to his debut game for us at West Brom. he didn't score but got one the following week at home to Brum. Shame Tommy Doc didn't hang on to him but United were a mess in those days with players coming in and out through a revolving door. I think we sold him to West Ham not long after Lou Macari arrived.
