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.

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. ♥️

Just finished this, a brilliant insight into the man and the player beautifully written by @waynesbarton.bsky.social. It filled me with immense pride to read about this incredible person Utd were so very lucky to have.

On this day in 1902:
Newton Heath play their last-ever game under that name before they become @ManUtd
This is the complete story, including that dramatic match, who actually gave the club their name, and when that change actually happened.

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
