Legendary football journalist Paddy Barclay and Manchester United author and producer Wayne Barton return for the second season of their acclaimed history series on Manchester United. In this series they discuss the early years of Alex Ferguson at Manchester United.

Episode Six looks at the post-Rotterdam months and new players brought in by Alex Ferguson. In came Peter Schmeichel and Paul Parker, with Andrei Kanchelskis also adapting to life in England, and young winger Ryan Giggs also cutting his teeth. Ferguson had new star power in his team and, with it, almost ended United's 25-year wait for a league title. As it was, they would finish the final old 'Division One' with a painful memory which would scar and motivate in equal measure. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy) for more information.
