Sounds as though the programme about the Munich crash has generated a lot of bad feeling in the eyes of Sir Matt's son.

Do you have a link to this ? Saw the program and wondered why?

It was an interesting documentary. It waws quite alot about the development of Bobby Charlton and how his teammates supported him. It portrayed Sir Matt Busby as a quite wise and clever. David Tennant was trying to do a welsh accent

It was a superb programme, wonderfully written and beautifully acted. Sir Matt was not the central character of the piece, it was about how the club got through the period when he was recovering from the crash too. Even though I'm a Morecambe/Liverpool supporter I found it incredibly moving, and just as much a human story as a football one. One could not come away from watching it without immense respect for the people involved and for Manchester United Football Club in particular.

Agree with that. I thought the plane crash scene was extremely effective and very moving.
