EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to February 1971, witnessing a significant moment in the history of Manchester United. The legendary Sir Matt Busby, then manager of the club, can be seen walking alongside the iconic George Best as they make their way out of a hotel. The duo had just attended an appeal hearing against a referee's decision regarding an unfortunate incident on the field. It was during this game that Best collided with another player, resulting in a broken leg. With unwavering support for his star player, Sir Matt accompanied George to fight against what they believed was an unjust ruling. Captured in black and white, this image exudes determination and resilience as both men stride purposefully forward. George Best holds onto a spare suit - perhaps symbolizing his readiness to face any challenge head-on. This photograph not only showcases two footballing legends but also highlights the camaraderie and loyalty within Manchester United at that time. The 1970s marked an era when these individuals were revered not only for their exceptional skills on the pitch but also for their unwavering dedication towards each other. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of the indomitable spirit that defined Manchester United under Sir Matt Busby's leadership and George Best's mesmerizing talent – forever etching them into football folklore.
