The Busby Era

The Busby Era is a wonderful DVD that chronicles the period which made Manchester United a household name. It includes previously unseen footage, including amateur film in colour from the 1950s and scenes from the Wembley dressing room following the 1968 European Cup triumph. Watch all the great teams that Sir Matt Busby built and admire those amazing games and goals that took Manchester United to the top of world football. In my opinion, this is essential viewing for all true Manchester United supporters, especially those not old enough to remember the period which made the club great.

The Beautiful New Stretford End

Stretty End Clock

Roberto Mancini is determined to go down in history as the man who ended Manchester City's 35-year trophy drought. Last year Mancini famously declared his intention to rip down the taunting clock that hangs from the Stretford End at Old Trafford, ticking round each season that ends without silverware on the blue half of Manchester.

Money may help Roberto Mancini win a trophy, but money will not make Manchester City as famous as Manchester United. Only footballing history, constant success, and longevity will achieve the impossible goal. Sir Matt Busby and Sir Alex Ferguson worked long and hard developing their great football teams, sometimes under immense pressure on and off the playing field. That is why Manchester United and the Stretty End is world famous. So, that clock hanging from the Stretford End will continue to tick for many years to come!
