Description
The story of Manchester United is one of the most emotive in the entire world of sport.
It’s the tale of a football club established by a humble group of railway workers in 1878 and taken on an incredible journey to the summit of world football; a journey encompassing the tragic loss of Sir Matt Busby’s incomparable Babes in the 1958 Munich air tragedy, and the manager’s own recovery from life-threatening injuries to build a new team and lead them to European Cup glory a decade later. Busby’s inspiring success and the style in which it was achieved attracted a global fanbase and set a template for future managers. After years of hopes and false dawns, Sir Alex Ferguson finally emulated and exceeded those feats, culminating in the Treble of 1999.
