Sir Matt Busby was one of football's greats.A man who led by example and who met his rare defeats with as big a smile as the one that greeted his worldwide success.In Sir Matt's words, "Winning isn't the real achievement" - to him, flair and imaginative play by his beloved Manchester United teams were paramount. Other managers may have won more trophies,but none displayed more dignity,grace and integrity,or more committment to the game,than Sir Matt.
Here,some of the greatest footballers the game has ever seen pay tribute to the man they called 'Boss'.From memories of the 'Busby Babes' who dominated the 1950's until their tragic destruction in the Munich air disaster,to the glorious achievements of Sir Matt's third world-beating team led by Best,Charlton and Law,the triumphs and hardships of Busby's legendary life are all included in riveting first-hand accounts.
As one of his most respected former players,Pat Crerand, says of Busby,"You will not find a single person to say a bad thing about him." All fans of football,regardless of team loyalty,will always have a place in their hearts for Sir Matt - and as a guiding light to an entire generation of players and fans,he leaves an unforgettable legacy that is an inspiration to the Manchester United team to this day.
This is his moving and exhilarating story.Told by friends, family and all the great players who served under him,and illustrated with rare photographs,here is the story of the man and his triumphs,remembered by those who loved him the most.Sir Matt truly became a legend in his own lifetime.This is a tribute to the affection and respect he inspired in players and fans alike.
