What an interesting read. Crerand and Law joined United in the early 60s, so the major focus is the 60s and how the team evolved. Enjoyed it greatly.,
Interesting autobiography of an iconic player. Read as result of 'Third Quarter' article in Backpass magazine...
What a player. I remember he back-heeled Manchester into the second division in 1974.
