Busby firmly believed in local talent and founded a youth academy. Promising young players, affectionately referred to as the ‘Busby Babes’, were trained to become star players.” Just as the training began to bear fruit,

disaster struck. On February 6, 1958, in Munich, a plane crashed with the entire team on board. Eight players,including star player Duncan Edwards, did not survive the crash. “This was a terrible blow to the team, the club and

its fans. Everyone thought that thiswas would be the end of the club’ssuccess, but the loss gave the club the inspiration to prove that all was not over yet. Ten years later, ManchesterUnited became the first English soccer

club to win the European Cup, an emotional moment.” The love and pride Richard feels for his club is undeniable when you listen to him.
