Happy birthday Wilf! We found this behind our boiler a few years ago, I'm sure your dad will be in the team photo. Your dad is a top bloke and used to see him down at the club I coach at watching his gran kids play.

That forward lineโฆ before Kopa joined them, but was during Didiโs brief spell. Real Madrid - like several other clubs - were hugely supportive of United in the aftermath of the disaster
