Goldspinners was a Cheshire-based record wholesale company, but it issued at least one single of its own: the one shown above, 'Manchester United', by George Roper & Pipedream (GOLD-1). There is no date on the label, but references in the lyrics to Tommy Docherty and Jimmy Greenhough suggest a release date of 1977 - that was the only year when both of them were at the club together. The 'B' side offered a tribute to the fans, apparently recorded by various people on the United staff. Manufacture was by Decca. Googling failed to reveal the existence of any other Goldspinners records.
