Burton will never forget the day Manchester United came to town and Sir Alex Ferguson was subjected to the sort of experience that will haunt him long after he has given up football to play with the grandchildren and tend the garden.
Fourteenth in the Conference, Burton played as though patronised by Ferguson's team selection and they did it all by the old Clough maxim, passed through the family tree, that if football were not meant to be played on the floor there would be grass in the sky.
The recriminations are for another time because the true story yesterday was of the finest hour in Burton's modest history and a manager whose modus operandi can be gauged by the manner in which he tried to shrink away from his famous surname to divert the accolades towards his players.
