For the first time in over fifty years, the author isn't able to enter the 'Theatre of Dreams', Old Trafford; the home of his beloved Manchester United. In a personal recollection Steve looks at the matches and memories that meant his support for United would be Forever and Ever. This story looks at United from Sir Matt Busby's last great side of Charlton, Law and Best, through those difficult transitional days of the seventies up to the mid-eighties before Alex Ferguson was appointed. There was, though, life before Fergie and this book gives a fans' perspective of what those years were like. The author looks at the strange parallel between this period in United's history and the football club of today, as on both occasions the club were faced with the impossible task of replacing the irreplaceable.
