After posting a picture I took on my phone of an old Peter Beardsley figurine (that shows little to no likeness to the former Everton and Newcastle United forward), I was sent this rather wonderful advert (below). Peter Beardsley was one of many footballers from the late 80s who were immortalised in plastic by Tonka.

Sir Alex Ferguson, a man who turns 70 on New Year's Eve, celebrates 25 years as manager of Manchester United on 6th November (tomorrow), so we thought we'd mark this truly astounding milestone and all the incredible accomplishments therein with a suitably colossal retrospective photo essay of the Scot's time at Old Trafford.

Back on this day in 1990, Manchester United and Arsenal clashed at Old Trafford in a game which would sow the seeds of much thuggery between the two clubs in the years to follow.

Nigel "Nutty" Winterburn tackled Brian McClair, who then kicked seven shades of s**t out of the Arsenal left-back.

Retrospective #7: Race for the title – Leeds United and Manchester United 1991/92

Back in 1991, English football witnessed the start of a spectacular and exciting league campaign. Despite Arsenal and Liverpool having shared the tag of Champions in the four years prior, it was Leeds United and Manchester United that ended up slugging it out for the 1991/1992 title. Refreshingly for the neutral, neither team had the so-called nous and experience to call upon from previous title challenges, and it thus culminated into a fascinating story of bravery, belief and even a calamitous own goal.

One of the worries I've had this summer is about the number of experienced players, who have been brought up in the United way, have left the club this year. Gary Neville, Paul Scholes, John O'Shea and Wes Brown have all moved on, whether to retirement or another club, and I can't help but wonder whether this will have any effect on the players coming up through the ranks at the moment.

A consistent pattern is revealing amongst the young players at Manchester United: they're awarded limited minutes on the field, sold, transform into first team players elsewhere and then Alex Ferguson admits regret. The manager normally makes the right decision having released a combination of international players who failed to attain their hype or potential, that list includes the likes of Manucho, Dong Fangzhuo, Markus Neumayr, Rodrigo Possebon, and Madds Timm.

Norwich City and Queens Park Rangers are certainly not strangers to the Premiership, but they have been an eternity in the wilderness as far as their fans will be concerned. They both have very famous top flight games which are associated with the club with QPR turning over Manchester United in a New Years Day game back in 1992, and Norwich defeating Bayern Munich in Europe in 1993.

A year after Eric Cantona made his leap into history with his amazing kung-fu kick at Crystal Palace in January 1995 he still had an extraordinary hold on the public imagination. One of my colleagues at the BBC came into work soon after New Year in 1996 with her 7-year-old son who spotted a little Cantona figurine on my desk, prompting him gleefully to trot out the little playground rhyme,
