hintonsboots reacted to loweman2 in The Alan Hinton Personal Collection
The next item from Alan’s collection is his Watney Cup Final winners tankard awarded at the end of the match to the players along with the trophy.
it was a packed Baseball Ground and the young exciting Rams tore United apart who had Best, Charlton and Law in their side.
another piece of our fine history.
Watney Cup Final
Derby County 4 Manchester United 1
August 8, 1970
Manchester United, with Bobby Charlton, George Best and Denis Law in their team, were no match for Derby County.
The Rams ran out 4-1 winners in front of more than 30,000 at the Baseball Ground.
One 20-minute spell in the second-half brought back memories of the home annihilations of Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool the previous season, with four and five-man moves, all involving simple first-time passes to men running perfectly into spaces, carving the United defence to pieces.
Alan Durban was outstanding; Willie Carlin covered every blade of grass, and John McGovern never stopped running and finding space.
The front three of Kevin Hector, John O'Hare and Alan Hinton were in exciting, thrustful mood, while Dave Mackay sauntered imperiously through the game.
Roy McFarland was the man of the match - ruthless in the tackle and dominant in the air, without ever losing the elegance that is his trade-mark, the Derby Evening Telegraph reported.
The Rams goals came from McFarland, Hinton, Durban and Mackay.
The cup was presented by FIFA president Sir Stanley Rous.
Derby County: Green; Webster, Robson; Durban, McFarland, Mackay; McGovern, Carlin, O'Hare, Hector, Hinton.
Manchester United: Stepney; Edwards, Dunne; Crerand, Ure, Sadler; Morgan (Stiles, 57), Law (Fitzpatrick, 25), Charlton, Kidd, Best.
Referee: Mr K Walker (Maidstone)
Attendance: 32,049
