Last night Manchester United inducted their new academy scholars.
They were each given a copy of Football, Taught By Matt Busby.
A book I wrote about the identity of the club being given to the next generation of youth.
There’s honestly no greater honour.
😃
In his interview with United We Stand, United CEO Omar Berrada said he’s read Football, Taught By Matt Busby.
Was buzzing to see this. Also a great review of the book in the mag. uwsonline.com/subscribe.php
Happy Father’s Day all. Only just realized I hadn’t posted here.
My daughter Ruby was born last Sunday.
I never thought I’d be a dad, tried for 12 years, so to experience this past week has been the best moment of my life. ♥️
Thanks Andy!
On this day in 1902:

This is the complete story, including that dramatic match, who actually gave the club their name, and when that change actually happened.

From @waynesbarton.bsky.social book, Football Taught by Matt Busby.
This quote, from over 90 years ago, perfectly sums up how it is to be Red today.
You write a book and you hope people will enjoy it.
You don’t expect reviews like these. What a headline!
No it’s out of print. But in early June it’s coming in paperback!

FOOTBALL TAUGHT BY MATT BUSBY ...
Comment from me: This sums up perfectly my own love for United the team I've supported for 62 years.
Just delivered today, so at least if tonights match turns out to be garbage I have options thanks to @waynesbarton.bsky.social
To all Man United fans I highly recommend Wayne Barton's book "Football taught by Matt Busby"
I get a real feel for the history of our great club-learning about early struggles as a club
I've reached the point where Matt arrived as manager in 1945 & won the FA Cup 4-2 against Blackpool in 1948
FOOTBALL TAUGHT BY MATT BUSBY ...
The unique,, yet simple, wisdom of Sir Matt, perfectly summing up the likes of Edwards, Best, and Cantona …
Love it. Belated birthday wishes 😃😃♥️
♥️
I can do a signed copy but they’ll be £35 (inclusive of P&P)… if that sounds do-able dm me and we can sort 🙂
