I saw Duncan Edwards. He was a fine footballer. He fought hard for and lost his life. Sorry Ian but you & I will never agree about this. Nothing, in my eyes can justify debasing a young mans memory. To say they get mileage is unfair. To them it was bloody traumatic as it was for everyone. I don't like Manu I dislike the latest manager. But the day that plane came down for my generation was a 'where were you when ' moment Their first game against Sheffield Wednesday with Ernie Taylor was on the telly. There wasn't a dry eye in the kingdom. It was a cup game and they got to the final and lost. Ian, enemies are enemies but you should respect them. It adds not detracts.
Anyway that's what I think. We won't agree, do let's stay friends.
