Without looking, what date did the (a) first world war start (b) second world war start (c) The Battle of Trafalgar take place (d) the 1966 cup final take place?

It's just not that simple is it?
No idea.
Nobody makes a big deal out of the start dates of each of them, they are important as events as a whole, not for individual days. Just individual key dates within each war. The cup final is known as 1966.
The 6th February is one of, if not, the most important date in Manchester United's history. Each and every year there are events held at Old Trafford to commemorate that sad day, there's a big clock outside Old Trafford and a new Munich Tunnel at the Stadium to remember those who lost their lives in Munich.

After been embarrassed in their group, they have changed their plans to "date to be confirmed".

VDS, Ferdinand, Scholes and Giggs. All four players need to be replaced by United in the very near future.
Akinfeev, Cahill, Silva and di Maria are all players that we've been linked with recently, all four need to be signed by United IMO.
I personally think we should get Milner, he's been on great form over the past 12 months and would fit perfectly into the United team straight away. And he seems the ideal replacement for Giggs. He'd compliment Valencia perfectly.

IMO, Akinfeev and di Maria are both overrated. Akinfeev's always been a good shot stopper, but he's a flapper who's pretty weak and small by goalkeeper's standards. Di Maria I've never really liked, he's good but I don't think he's good enough for United, nor does he justify some of the price tags that have been rumoured, IMO anyway.

As a City fan remember 6 February is easy for me. It's my birthday

I don't know how accurate that graphic is, however it suggests to me that the club were trying to compete with Chelski. It does make you wonder where United would be now had Ronaldo not blossomed into the long ball target he became.
