Sjötta febrúar ár hvert minnumst við flugslyssins þar sem  8 leikmenn Manchester United, 3 starfsmenn félagsins og 12 aðrir létust.

Leikmennirnir voru Geoff Bent, Roger Byrne fyrirliði, Eddie Colman, Duncan Edwards, Mark Jones, David Pegg, Tommy Taylor og Liam Whelan.

Walter Crickmer, ritari félagsins, Bert Whalley yfirþjálfari og Tom Curry þjálfari létu einnig lífið.

    Ég ætla vona að liðið okkar heiðri minningu þeirra er fórust með því að vakna til lífsins og klára tímabilið með sóma. Man Utd forever.

    For everyone laughing at Manchester
    United, allow me to tell you a story.
    Railway workmen came together to play
    football once and dared to dream. A
    dream to make something more of their
    lives.
    That is Manchester United.
    The team lost its first ever competitive
    game 6-0 to Bolton Reserves. It got
    relegated in its second season of
    competitive football. In January 1902, it
    was asked to shut down because of
    debts. It didn’t. Instead it came back up
    and won the league, a FA
    Cup and a charity shield 2 years later.
    That is Manchester United.
    From 1922 to 1940, United were
    relegated again and again and again.
    Faced with bankruptcy in 1931, United
    were on the verge of disaster again.
    Instead, the team held on and fought on.
    Finishing 2nd in 1947, 1948 and 1949; 1st
    in ’52, 55 and 56.
    It won the FA Cup in 1948 and became
    the first English team to play in Europe. It
    had to wait 41 years for glory.
    That is Manchester United.
    A plane took off on February 6,
    1958. To greatness it seemed. And came
    crashing down. 8 players died.
    Facing despair and doom, the club fought
    on. It reached the final of the FA Cup that
    year. Without a first team, it plodded on
    and rebuilt. 7 years later, as
    the fallen 8 smiled from above, the team
    won the title in 1965 and 1967. And the
    European Cup in ’68.
    That is Manchester United.
    For 25 years it waited to win again,
    getting relegated, losing Managers and
    players as rivals laughed. It didn’t fall
    then either. A league title in 1992, a
    double in ’93 and a treble in ’99. That is
    Manchester. Blood, toil, sweat and tears.
    That is Manchester United.
    Our squad needs a reshuffle you say. Our
    tactics are outdated you say. You laugh
    because you think we are down. You
    laugh because you think we are lost. We
    smile because we have seen it all. We
    smile because we know we will ALWAYS
    be back. Wins from incredible positions.
    Glory from the darkest despair.
    That is Manchester United.
    We are Manchester United.’
    This is why I love this team,
    We may not be the best team in the
    world, we may not be the greatest of
    them all but we are the most
    inspirational team ever!
    That is what separates us from others, we
    are a team to look on to.
    I don’t know, when we’ll be back, maybe
    this year, maybe next, maybe in 5-10
    years time, but believe me down and
    out? Not a bit of it. We’re never out.
    And no, this is not blind faith, but belief.
    Man Red 4eva
