KIERAN RICHARDSON was on top of the world in the summer of 2005.<\/strong><\/p>\n

He had just made his England debut after helping West Brom pull off one of the greatest escapes to avoid Premier League relegation.<\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

Richardson, 38, joined West Brom on loan to get minutes and escape United's reserves.<\/p>\n

So when he returned to Carrington as an England international he did not realise he was no longer a reserve and ended up in the wrong dressing room.<\/p>\n

He recalled the story, telling Ladbrokes Fanzone: "I left Man United's reserve changing room in the January, and came back a full international. It's mind-boggling. <\/p>\n

"The funny thing about it all, is that when I went back for my first day with Man United, I got to Carrington and walked straight back into the reserve changing room!<\/p>\n

"I replied saying dunno\u2026 I haven't spoken to the boss yet\u2026"<\/p>\n

"I still had that respect for how things were; I didn't know what the manager was thinking, or what was going on.<\/p>\n

"'No, no, no. You come out of this changing room, mate. You've got to come into the first-team changing room!', he said.<\/p>\n

"But I felt a bit in limbo, to be honest with you. I felt like I deserved to be in that first-team dressing room, of course. <\/p>\n

"But I didn't really know where I was going. Yeah, that first day back at training, that morning really brought me back down to earth after a crazy summer!<\/p>\n

"It's funny, because of where I was at in my career at the start of that 2004-05 season, there was no mention of an England call-up bonus, or anything like that, in my contract\u2026 no way.<\/p>\n

"I only put that sort of thing in when I signed a new deal that summer."<\/p>\n
