The 1998-99 FA Cup matches are particularly notorious. United complained
about an Arsenal goal (boss Steve Bruc even threatened to take his team
off the pitch) and in a remarkable display of generosity Arsenal offered
to play the game again... with the same outcome. It was all about an
incident where the Blades (wrongly) felt Arsenal should have given them
the ball back from a throw-in. See links above and eg this newsreel article for the full story.
The 2003-03 semi-final was also featured a controversial Arsenal winner
and a moaning Blades boss. But no re-match!
