Season Retrospective - Reliving 1997/98
Ben and Andrew look back at the 1997/98 season, one of the wildest ones for United in modern times: an FA Cup semifinal, a playoff run, manager resignations, Deane/Fjortoft, Alan Kelly, Dane Whitehouse, Vas Borbokis, Wayne Quinn, boardroom controversy, and so much more.
Split into five parts: kicking off with the summer of 1997, the return of a Blades legend, plus Nigel Spackman replacing Howard Kendall, then part 2 (13:44) looks at our great start to the season. Part 3 charts the fallout from the Deane/Fjortoft sales (47:04), before part 4 looks at our epic FA Cup quarter-final with Coventry City (1:12:30). Finally, part 5 wraps up the end of the season, the playoff games, the player of the season awards, and a few final footnotes (1:37:25).
Thanks for listening, stay safe and healthy, and UTB!
