[SALFORD RED]

The father of the Babes.

The one who put the word MAN in manager.

The greatest manager to ever grace the world of football.

REST IN PEACE SIR MATT. YOU WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN.​

when records get compared sir matt gets ignored yet without munich and the modern thing of money being key he is in top 5 for me . 5 best for me are clough ,ferguson,busby,shankly,chapman in no particular order as the achievements are hard to compare . he was one of first to rely on youth . a little known fact is he was inspired by torino side of the forties and the 442 and youth reliance of that side . for anyone interested in footie history torino were a fantastic side sweeping all before them until an air crash in 1949 wiped out the team . they never recovered . the fact utd did was down to jimmy murphy and sir matt rip indeed

Nice bump. Never been as heartbroken as when I heard he had passed.
