George Best was in great form at the start of the 1971/72 season. I’m sure you’ve seen all these clips, but always worth a watch. p.s only allowed short vids on here! #mufc

Not George Best related, but we’ve had a great couple of days at Old Trafford. We saw Kenny Dalglish who was there signing the book of condolence for Sir Bobby. He stopped for a chat with Jude and a picture, a class act. #mufc

George Best and Bobby Charlton. For a couple of year it was frosty between them, the rest of the time there was total respect. Simply put, Sir Bobby was one of the greatest footballers to have ever played the game. #mufc

Because I’ve been asked about the tackles George Best and others received every week in those days, here’s a quick 3 examples you may not have seen from the 71-72 season. Southampton and Spurs in the league and Southampton in the FA Cup. It wasn’t all fun. #mufc

George Best: Scoring the winner against Newcastle following death threats, chopped down after a bit of skill against Nottingham Forest, and as a bonus I’m sure you’ve all seen his 6 goals against Northampton so here’s a couple of other bits from that game. Cheers. #mufc

Football 50 years ago-The players were not as fit as now, the pitches were sometimes awful, the kits were plain, boots were basic, crowd safety wasn’t really thought of, yet I still prefer it every time to nowadays. I’m stuck in 1970, and I’m happy here! @mufc
