View Full Version : Man Utd Arsenal 1991 brawl???
just wondering has anybody come across this I'd love to see it again. All I can remember is Limpar running away from Choccy McClair I think and a lot of players involved i think it was 21. Checked Youtube but I can't find it.

It was 1990 anyway for starters. Mid October, if the memory serves.

Ironically, the McClair Arsenal thing stemmed from a cup match a few years before where McClair missed a last minute peno (that allegedly ended up in White Hart Lane:)) and Winterburn taunted him in much the same way as the Keown did years later-I'll always remember that
It's all calmed down now a bit and both teams are more concentrating on challenging Chelsea

Didn't realise it came from an incident a few seasons before, explains why a player of mcclairs temperment would lose it like that...that winterburn is stupid prick all mouth, he backed down fairly smart with di canio during that brawl with sheff wed.

Choccy was a legend. I would have done the same thing myself

You knew him as Choccy, i had a sticker book years ago and it said he was known amongst team mates as "the professor"
supposedly when beckham, scholes and nevilles just broke into the team he used to sit in on their contract talks so they wouldn't get shafted...not sure how accurate that story is to be honest!

Well in the famous league cup games against port vale and newky in 94/95 where all the young lads played there was the chants from the united fans that "they go to school in the morning and choccy is their teacher!"

To be fair, if you look at what was around him, he must have seemed like Einstein in that dressing room.

Jesus, Kate fucking Lawler, they must really have been stuck for people to talk to.
Savage video. McClair putting the boot into winterburn was something else though.

Nice work Amadues. What a scut McClair was, he started the whole thing.
Tony Adams in his book said no-one would take Michael Thomas in a fight, said he was a beast

Yer man Tonkinson?
What was Winterburn doing on the floor?
Fantastic stuff from Choccy in trying to clear things up.
..he waited long enough (since 1988.), the ball.. don't ever sneer.. etc etc etc..

He also reckoned himself and quinny would drink 8-9 pints the night before a match.
Quinny said the man was a fantasist.

Youtube is blocked at work, but I think it was a late challenge by Limpar that started it.
...but when Winterburn is involved it's open season on violence. Choccy should have got him in a headlock and done a few WWE moves on him.
No punishment would have been too much.
I'm guilty of being morally incorrect there ...but fuck it.

Does anyone remember the score. United 0 Gooners 1. Limpar scored a sneaky one inside Les Sealy's (R.I.P.) near post. Great thinking by him. That Winterburn was a fucking wanker.

fucking right! that wanker deserves everything he got.
The funniest thing was when he started on Di Canio a few years back then shit himself when Di Canio actually turned round to him.
