THE DAY MANCHESTER UNITED CAME TO TRUNGLE

An audio documentary on a mysterious and relatively obscure piece of Cornish football history, the day when Manchester United travelled to Mousehole.

We’ll be finding out why it happened, how it came to be, what happened on the pitch and the final score, in a classic David and Goliath situation. 

We thought we were a pretty good team at the time, but they were a different level

  1. Great night. Remember having to walk what felt like miles to get to Trungle Park. Still have my ticket (no. 00575) but was unable to obtain a programme.
