1974/75 Season - February
Summary
Just when everything appeared to be going pear shaped, Harvey rallied the troops and four wins out of six stopped the slide. Despite the upturn in form United were 12th at the end of the month
United's second best crowd of the season (42,514) turned up for the all-ticket derby match with 6th placed Middlesbrough. In the first period things looked bleak as Souness ran the midfield and Hickton put the visitors ahead. However the second half saw United hit back to record a deserved victory.
We then slumped to a disappointing defeat against struggling Luton before typically putting in our best performance with a thumping 4-1 victory over Liverpool (5th) after scoring three without reply in the First Half.
Three days later another excellent performance - with Macdonald and Jinky turning on the style - in a 3-0 victory against 3rd placed Burnley.
Two trips to London followed with United losing 2-3 to Chelsea following two controversial goals for The Blues and then battling to a single goal victory at West Ham
Kenneddy became the latest player to be ruled out.
