....well it was an early round of the FA Youth Cup, so doesn't really count. The score from memory was 8 or 9 - 0. What is well remembered is that a 16 year old Ryan Giggs scored 5 of them. so that rather gives away which team won!

Sean Gregan played for Quakers and Simon Davies for United. Can't recall any other names of those yet to make their mark who turned out. Nevilles, Beckham, Scholes etc were not yet on the scene.
Thought it was 6-0 or 6-1.
"At a meeting held at the Grammar School on Friday last - Mr Phillip Wood M.A., in the chair - it was resolved to form an Association Football Club for Darlington and neighbourhood. The opinions of those present were so unanimous as to the desirability of this step, that a committee was formed to complete the organisation of the club, and Mr Craven, 17, Garden Street, was appointed secretary pro tem." - The Northern Echo, Monday 23rd July 1883

I remember it was Andy Morrison who took him out. He'd already felt the warmth of the shed after he punched Preecey during a corner. I remember that as I politely told him he was a donkey and he spat at me!!

Saw him at a Witton Albion game last year and asked him about that game. He was still a b##lend about it.
