MG, that's a wonderful quote from Sir Matt. Where does it come from?

Song lyrics for United Calypso

Oh Manchester, Manchester United,
A bunch of bouncing Busby Babes,
They deserved to be knighted,
Whenever they're playing in your town,
Be sure to get to that football ground,
Take a lesson, come and see,
Football taught by Matt Busby,
Oh Manchester, Manchester United,
A bunch of bouncing Busby Babes,
They deserved to be knighted,
Down on Maine Roads greasy pastures,
Play a load of dozy b**tards, Colin Bell, the City ace, A ruptured duck has got more pace,
Oh Manchester, Manchester United,
A bunch of bouncing Busby Babes,
They deserved to be knighted...

G'day Giles unfortunately I don't know - it was sent to me a while ago by a friend of a friend.

I'll find out for you if you want me to.

Hope you are well.

I guess that the Babes had Max's forebear complaining too.
There are those who cry loudest at every funeral, not in grief, but in a sad recognition of their own futile existence. The same individuals call out during a minute silence held in honour of a departed soul. Attention seeking and irreverent. As we grieve, we forgive or ignore their selfish calls, not feeding our own carnal desire for revenge or justice.

A sad time for all, Flowers of Manchester, gone but never forgotten.

Max - Everyone is well versed on who died that day. No need to put names up, or videos IMO. RIP Busby Babes
