Manchester United

I don't watch football much these days, even on TV but 50 years ago I used to make the trip from Whalley Range where I lived to Old Trafford when ever United were playing. Local away games also to Burnley, Blackpool, Bolton, Sheffield Wed and Utd, Everton thought not Liverpool, they were in the 2nd devision then.

I can still clearly remember hearing the news and wishing it wasn't true. I still wish it wasn't true 50 years on.

Crikey. My earliest remembered tragic world event is Bobby Kennedy. I hope the England supporters behaved themselves during the 1 minute silence
