Matt, Bill Shankly and Joe Mercer. True gentlemen managers who revolutionised the English game. No disrespect to other big clubs, but when I was a kid these men weren't just in charge of the football club, they were in charge of their respective cities. Salford, Liverpool and Manchester. God bless them all and what they gave to us.

Harry gregg hero

What a great man. GGMU and good luck Mr Ten Hag- make us proud again

Big

I wish I could remember where I found it, but about thirty years ago I found a brilliant article that starts with one of the journalists saying "I'm not getting on that plane." The premise is that it triggers everyone refusing to board. The upshot is Utd forfeits two points against Wolves, which causes huge controversy of course, and also virtually gifts the title to Stan Cullis's men, but more importantly, Munich never happens. I can only remember bits, like Geoff Bent is signed by Everton before the end of the season and goes on to be a key man in their '63 title winners. Tommy Taylor leaves Old Trafford in 1961 as Alf Ramsey sees him as the key to Ipswich's promotion push. He captains the '62 title winners and becomes a legend at Middlesbrough where he delivers their only ever First Division title in 1975 as boss. In the 21st century, they play in the Tommy Taylor stadium. Duncan Edwards so impresses Milan in the 58 European semi-finals that they offer him a king's ransom. He signs and spends three years in Italy before being lured back by Bill Nicholson to join Spurs in the summer of 1961. Edwards plays in the 1966 World cup final [but instead of Nobby Stiles, not Bobby Moore] The defeat to Scotland in 1967 is his last cap. He follows Denis Viollet to the states in 1968, but returns in the 70s to become assistant boss to Tommy Docherty at Old Trafford. Edwards is briefly named boss in 1977/78 but it doesn't work out and he steps back into the coaching staff after two underwhelming seasons.

The big man❤❤

Fergus, Thanks for this very affectionate tribute to Matt Busby and his many unparalleled achievements in the face of tragedy.

Rest In Peace Harry Gregg

What an amazing documentary..as a fan we should know the history of our club and Sir Matt Busby is undoubtedly an important part of it...thanks for this.

A man who could bridge the gap between football's two greatest rivals. Respected and remembered. YNWA

The soul of Man United. Legend

I'm an life long Arsenal fan but boy I do envy man United's history. All credit do go to Sir Matt, even in his difficult time he did stand by his values and moral, build a foundation for generations to follow and no matter how much money be pumped in today's football they can't have a history like this. Proud of the Busby way, salute.

Interesting matt Busby played for Liverpool and almost became their assistant coach.

Sir Matt lay down the foundation.... Sir Alex built a castle on it.... Woodward and the Glazers are literally tearing everything down!!! 😒

Sandy and Sheena,God bless you.

HE WOULD HAVE BEEN THE GREATEST FOOTBALLER ENGLAND EVER PRODUCED HAD IT NOT FOR THE ILL FATED MUNICH AIR DISASTER OF 6 FEBRUARY 1958. DUNCAN EDWARDS WOULD HAVE BEEN 30 IN 1966 WHEN ENGLAND WON THE WORLD CUP AT WEMBLEY.INSTEAD OF BOBBY MOORE EDWARDS WOULD HAVE BEEN THE SKIPPER HOLDING ALOFT THE JULES RIMET. AND THE BUSBY BABES WOULD AND COULD HAVE DOMINATED ENGLISH FOOTBALL THROUGH THE SIXTIES WITH EDWARDS AROUND. SIR BOBBY CHARLTON ONCE REMARKED OF EDWARDS:"OF ALL THE FOOTBALLERS THE ONE FOOTBALLER WHO MAKES ME FEEL VERY INFERIOR IS EDWARDS.I THOUGHT I WAS GOOD BUT HE WAS THE BEST." IT WAS SO TRAGIC AND PAINFUL FOR SIR WALTER WINTERBOTTOM AND ENGLAND TO HAVE TO DO WITHOUT TOMMY TAYLOR,ROGER BYRNE AND MOST OF ALL DUNCAN EDWARDS FOR THE 1958 WORLD CUP IN SWEDEN.THE LOSS OF DUNCAN EDWARDS WAS REALLY FELT.

Absolute gentleman..

Amazing documentary.

YES FEBRUARY 21 1958.THIS WAS THE DAY DUNCAN EDWARDS ONLY 21 DIED.HE HAD FOUGHT FOR HIS LIFE FOR FIFTEEN DAYS.THE NURSES ATTENDING TO HIM ALL WEPT OPENLY. SIR BOBBY CHARLTON ONLY 20 AT THE TIME OF THE MUNICH CRASH THAT CLAIMED THE LIVES OF MANY OF HIS MANCHESTER UNITED TEAMS WHICH INCLUDED ENGLAND INTERNATIONALS ROGER BYRNE,TOMMY TAYLOR AND OF COURSE EDWARDS HIMSELF NOT LONG AFTER,HAD REMARJED:"IF ANY FOOTBALLER WHO HAD MADE ME FEEL VERY INFERIOR IT WAS DUNCAN EDWARDS.HE WOULD AND COULD HAVE BEEN ENGLAND'S GREATEST EVER PLAYER SINCE THE WAR."

It's 20-18 in 2018 #UnitediFukkinLuvIt

Can anybody tell me how good Mark Jones (one of the Busby Babe's was). He was my auntys cousin so I've been fascinated just how good he was. Only heard stories from older family members

so sad

Our father, a keen Manchester CITY supporter, was always a little annoyed that my brother and I wanted to support MUFC. Finally relenting, he said that we could go to the next home game at Old Trafford. This was the match. He and I will never forget that night. We, with tens of thousands of other supporters I'm sure, often think of what might have been!

To have taken on United when all was in ruin after the war then build three fantastic teams and finally turning tragedy into triumph fulfilling the dream of being the first English club to win the European cup! Sir Matt was the best manager ever. God bless the great man. From a Salford red.

What must have been going through Harry Greggs mind? A couple of weeks earlier he was playing with one of the most promising group of players in the history of football. From his perspective too he could see the whole team in front of him. No disrespect to anyone who came in to replace the deceased players (what a sad honour), but there's no way they could lace the boots of those who passed away. It must have seemed like such a nightmare, surrounded by strangers and ghosts. Such strength to be able to play through that. It seems rough that he left the season before United won the European cup in 1968.

My name is actually Finlay Edwards and I’m a relative of Duncan I’m from Scotland and my dads from Manchester his dad (my grandpa) Duncan was his second cousin before every one says ‘fake’ or ‘keep dreaming kid’ this is a genuine relative there’s pictures of him in my gran and grandpas house proving my point.

Maaaannnn the lump in my throat is choking me.....sooooo sad R.I.P Busby babe's united forever

surprised no likes as yet...very inspiring video <3

If fergie had the same luck with refs in the ucl that peps barca did, we'd have outstripped milan in terms of titles.

What he did with Aberdeen was as impressive as what he did for man utd

Eusebio said George was the greatest player he ever saw. That's praise from the heart!

George is in my all time 11. Some of his playmaking is surreal puts shivers down the spine. Us Scots are eccentric and so are the Irish! The English too! That's Britain to me! A crazy bunch of islands!

Scottish fa cup fuck off its just the Scottish cup

In Fergie we trust! GOD! Blessings, Mr Ferguson <3

Vastly overrated. Can name 5 wingers from the past 5 years alone that are better. Neymar, Bale, Ribery, Alexis, Robben. Not even close.

Hat off to Sir Alex, he was the best manager of all time. He didn't buy the most expensive players but won trophies with whoever he had. GREATX10!

I've got only one thing to say: G.O.A.T.

people say he is the best but he was no phenom

Sammy McAroy is spot on, i saw George play against my team Blackpool FC for Fulham along with Rodney Marsh,they tore the mighty Tangerines apart and George way better than Marsh , who a great player, George Best the world greatest ever player, so much natural talent, i just feel so lucky to have seen him play

Sammy you got me copying that legendary statement mate. NOT AT ALL, IT WAS GEORGE BEST BY A MILE. Box office stuff, nailed it.

Anyone has the link to that piano music in the background towards the end?

notice something back then?....players actually TRYING to stay on their feet when getting completely hacked to bits.

Miss him still!!!!

One of my last drunks in the UK, Partying with George Best One of the best football players whoever lived. I found him in his pub in London. He played for many great football clubs one of them my favorite English team, Manchester United. It was just about when I left London in 1989 running away from my addiction ending up in Vancouver Canada. I got sober thank god and he didn't. He was a lot of fun and what a party we had. I seen how much he drank and I was drinking the same amounts. After I ran out of money and got sober after I found AA in Canada, I was just lucky. I did read somewhere that he had to get a liver transplant and I did hope that he would get sober but he just could not. We drank champagne Dom Perignon champagne at 200 pounds per bottle and that was a lot of money back then. I hoped he would get the help he needed but no, So So sad. I will never forget. I will say that meeting him helped me in a roundabout way because I got the chance to what I was in for if I did not stop drinking.

5:56 Look, It's Jim Carrey! 😂
