NICKY BUTT & THE FA CUP VISIT SHAWE VIEW IN 1996

The reason for the visit in August 1996 was that the BBC decided to follow the winning team from the Preliminary Round of the FA Cup through to the final. Manchester United had just won the FA Cup so the BBC decided to start with Trafford being only four miles from Old Trafford. Alas Trafford lost against Clitheroe so the BBC followed them into the next round & so on.The programme was shown on Match of the Day before the FA Cup Final.

Note: Nicky Butt in the centre of the front row with the Trafford first team squad.
