FROM THE ARCHIVES | On this day 1990 - Hereford United v Manchester United - FA Cup 4th Round

People talk about Mark Robins saving Sir Alex Ferguson's job in the previous round. He most likely would have survived a loss to Nottingham Forest.

Had he of lost to Hereford there would have been no way back. Exactly 34 years later the current manager Erik Ten Hag is under pressure as his side visit Newport County.

Clayton Blackmore scores the winner in the 84th minute. Watching the video back Hereford probably should have had a penalty immediately after the goal when Mark A Jones was tripped in the box, this also includes the footage of "The Phantom Whistler"
