EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the British Film Institute's archives, we are transported back to the exhilarating world of football in 1965. The image features two iconic figures, Matt Busby and Denis Gilmore, amidst the frenzy of David Bracknell's Cup Fever. Matt Busby, a legendary figure in Manchester United's history, stands tall with an air of confidence and determination. His presence exudes leadership and passion for the beautiful game. As one of the most successful managers in English football history, his influence on both players and fans alike is immeasurable. Beside him stands Denis Gilmore, whose name may not be as widely recognized but who played an equally vital role during that era. Together with Busby, they form a formidable duo that propelled their team towards greatness. The photograph captures a moment frozen in time - perhaps just before or after an intense match - where emotions run high and dreams hang delicately in balance. It serves as a reminder of the immense pressure these men faced while striving for victory. As we gaze upon this remarkable snapshot from 1965, we can almost hear the roar of passionate supporters echoing through packed stadiums. We can feel our hearts race alongside those caught up in David Bracknell's Cup Fever – a fever that swept across England during that unforgettable year. This print is not only a testament to sporting excellence but also encapsulates the spirit and magic that make football such an integral part of British culture.
