Shankly, Ferguson, Busby and Stein. The Greatest of The Greats. All were Born and Raised within 25 miles of Glasgow City Centre. All served time down at The Coal face in the local mines, except Ferguson, who worked in The Famous Govan Shipyards on The River Clyde.
Matt Busby is the Messiah of Manchester united ! He set the standard ! He ought to be considered Jesus by us fans of .... Mighty Mighty Manchester United
Having met SIR MATT a few times he always treated me as an equal not just a terrace ite.Proud to say I named my son after him and the other UNITED great MATTHEW JAMES. Two men with no equal .God bless them both.Dave a proud an old STRETFORD ENDER.Thanks to them both for giving me and countless REDS so much pleasure and great memories.
Oh, don't the '48 cup winners LOVE him! - not! Read Keith Dewhurst's fabulous mufc memoirs in 'When You Put On A Red Shirt': Jimmy Murphy was United's driving force/rough diamond polisher. Pure passion and all time legend
Bit of poetic licence given on the Huddersfield game assertion. There was only 1 match vs Huddersfield in 1953, and it came on 31st October, and there were 2 teenagers, Duncan Edwards and Jackie Blanchflower. There were a couple of 20 year olds and a couple more 21 year olds, and those in their early 20's but not 7 as the video liked to boast. I'm sure it was still an unusual occurrence but still... Thanks for posting all of this, all your vids are priceless.
He was Sir Mat Busby what a difference today BETWEEN him and the one we have today one always hammering on the opponents bar and the other the other side and one he is timed and the other is arrogant I am sorry to the fans today we are not seeing attracting football
Excellent video but doesn't he take a slagging from his players eg: we saved his job/I never once got told how to improve my game(ie he knew fuck all about tactics)/I gave my wage packet straight to the wife, I knew what was in it, not much. No wonder Mitten did one to Bogota and later came back to England to arse around with greyhounds whilst playing for Fulham. Exploited players under a tyrant manager with no empathy.
@@michaelroberts7374 It really reflects the rise of workers rights up to the point players diverged from the working class and became superstars. Really it was serfdom, you choose your master and they restrict your trade and dispose of you as they see fit. Mitten should have stayed abroad until the end of his career, he might have got something more from it.
@@gm2407 Charlie chose outside FIFA and him and Neil Franklin grabbed at the false promises despite such an alien culture (even more so then). That they were willing to do that is the perfect answer to the maximum wage.
@@michaelroberts7374 Heavy restrictions breed desperate actions, any alternative is taken. That maximum wage needed to go. Shame for Charlie Mitten he did not live in an erra with modern coaching and wages, it sounds like everything he ever wanted.
The catalyst that sparked the magic in Manchester United .....and groomed the brilliant Busby Babe's, ...... sadness and tragedy of Munich......the euphoria of European success in 1968.....A man of vision.....a man of principal....LEGEND
a man played for liverpool n caption liverpool even greatest boss of united came from man city nliverpool but he use the philiopypy of liverpool when he played there n coach united ...
Tv show from 1999. Part of the BBC's Reputations series. I remember watching it and the criticism of Busby contrasted with the news's idolisation of him
In your dreams, Everton were formed the same year as Manchester United and Liverpool were not even a team until long after then and if it weren't for an argument about rent would not exist. Liverpool FC is forever in Everton's shadow, if you know your history.
