Beckham&#x27;s Manchester United suffered a famous upset has now been demolished.<\/p>\n<p>Home to York City FC, Bootham Crescent was razed to the ground after 90 years to make way for a unique housing development worth \u00a37million.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\"

after being sold to Persimmon Homes.<\/p>\n<p>The Minstermen left the 8,256 capacity ground in 2020 with the York Community Stadium in Huntington becoming their new home.<\/p>\n<p>But the National League side&#x27;s original patch still has a place in many York supporters&#x27; hearts.<\/p>\n<p>Older fans may well remember some of their finest moments taking place at Bootham Crescent.<\/p>\n<p>Iconic moments included a historic FA Cup win over Arsenal in 1985 &#8211; followed by a 1-1 draw against a formidable\u00a0Liverpool\u00a0side in the same competition.<\/p>\n<p>But perhaps one of the greatest results witnessed at the hallowed ground was in fact a 3-1 loss to\u00a0giants Manchester United\u00a0in 1995.<\/p>\n<p>United were six games unbeaten in all competitions when York showed up for the first leg of the League Cup second round tie.<\/p>\n<p>City took on the Red Devils in the then-named Coca Cola\u00a0League Cup, and defeated the Prem leaders in a shock 3-0 victory in the first leg at Old Trafford.<\/p>\n<h2>Most read in Football<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\"

another from Terry Cooke, York managed to hang on.<\/p>\n<p>The plucky underdogs went through 4-3 on aggregate thanks to Scott Jordan&#x27;s strike at Bootham Crescent.<\/p>\n<p>Stung by their League
