Man Utd Thread:

Sad day for the club and indeed the sport. Arguably United's biggest legend, even when he talked he a certain aura about him.   Was the first player I believe to win World Cup and European Cup and Ballon d'Or.  Only 8 other players has managed that feat  Franz Beckenbauer, Gerd Muller, Paolo Rossi, Zinedine Zidane, Rivaldo, Ronaldinho, Kaka and Messi.   RIP

Bobby seemed to have almost the opposite personality to Big Jack. Very polite, mild and quite reserved. I wonder how much did the Munich disaster affect him?

[Milltown Row2]

Ah, that's one legend who can be given that title without anyone thinking differently

His footballing skills and professionalism during his playing days set the tone for future stars.

Won everything as a player and considering what he went through with Munich all in the background and how it affected him.

Harry Gregg I think is the last man standing and his contribution to saving the lives after that crash can never be underestimated

What a man. RIP

Harry Gregg died a year or so ago.

Utd lucky to get a win against a very poor Sheffield Utd. Don't look dangerous going forward at all.

Maguire decent.

Claimed the three points but a far from convincing performance against one of worst teams in the league.

Then again Tottenham will go top of the table on Monday and they needed goals in the 98th and 100th to beat Sheffield United at home

Match winning goal was a strike that the late Bobby would be proud of.

Don't think Foderingham will be that proud of it, watching it back...

City fans showing their class chanting Bobbys in a box. Man did more for football than their whole club.

The gas thing is he was the member of a team that won a World Cup for his country.
Bringing untold happiness to most of the Man City fans fathers and grandfathers.

One of the oddest things about soccer fans (and especially so when they're Irish based) is how they can default to a position that the supporters of their club are made up of passionate and fun loving lads (with a bad egg here and there, but sure nobody can control that), whereas their rivals' fanbases are falling down with large groups of the most vile and revolting human beings on the planet.

Bobby Charlton. What a player, what a man.  Utmost respect for him.
My father met him after a match a few years ago at Old Trafford. A lovely, unassuming man.

Didn't Charlton  play for Waterford United  for  a while? Or manage  them, maybe?
