A warm welcome to this e-mag edition of Manchester United – An Anthology.’ As you will see from the list of contents, it’s a pick-n-mix compendium of writings from the eras of Tommy Docherty, Dave Sexton, and Ron Atkinson. It’s split into ordered sections, but it’s more of a dip-in anthology. It contains the great triumphs – along with a few disasters, and there are vignettes on some of the great players, with some who didn’t quite make it. There are specially composed match reports on the great Cup finals, and a section on the rivalries United faced during the above eras. It’s something a bit different that will take you on a journey down memory lane. For younger readers, it will give an insight into what United was all about before the arrival of Sir Alex Ferguson. It was a diverse era for its moments of trials, as well as glorious moments of unforgettable joy. RE-EDITED 2021 PLEASE DOWNLOAD NEW VERSION OF BOOK FORMAT DECEMBER 2021

In December 1989, United fanatic Pete Molyneux raised a banner calling for Alex Ferguson's head, sparking the most famous protest in Old Trafford's 103 years. For manager and supporter alike it was their darkest hour. Pete never gave up on his team and, thank God, Fergie stayed. Ta Ra Fergie tells Pete's story of his time following United at home and abroad since 1963, attending over 2,000 matches. This is the story of United from a fan's perspective. It covers Busby's European triumph, the despair of relegation and the tortuous false dawns of the 1980s to that elusive title win and Alex Ferguson's twenty-six-year-reign. Watching United has brought countless thrills, but for Pete it has also had a darker side that led to heartache and tragedy.
