In Memoriam: Sir Bobby Charlton
Listen now
Description
Ian Irving is joined by Andy Mitten and Laurie Whitwell as we share memories of the life of Sir Bobby Charlton, who died this week aged 86. A truly iconic figure, Charlton was a recognisable name the world over and he is one of only nine players in history to win a European Cup, a World Cup, and a Ballon d'Or. Yet as a member of the Busby Babes, a survivor of the Munich air disaster, captain of the 1968 European Cup winners, and a club director for almost 40 years, he meant even more to Manchester United. Tributes were paid before the Premier League win at Bramall Lane and more will follow when FC Copenhagen visit Old Trafford in the Champions League on Tuesday.
