The Insider's Guide to Manchester United: Candid Profiles of Every Red Devil Since 1945 CONTAINING JOHN DOHERTY'S SUBJECTIVE VIEWS on each of the 348 men to the end of season 2004-05 who have played for the club at senior level since the war, The Insider's Guide To Manchester United is the definitive Manchester United players' guide. Documenting every player to have appeared for the Red Devils since the war, Doherty (an original Busby Babe and chairman of the United Old Boys committee) candidly reveals the strengths, weaknesses and his personal memories of United's finest. Doherty is one of that elite band, the original Busby Babes. Born in Manchester, he joined United straight from school and rose through the ranks alongside the likes of Duncan Edwards and Bobby Charlton. A creative, goal-scoring inside-forward, he reached the first team, won a League Championship medal in 1955/56, but then saw his career shattered by a knee injury before he had reached his prime. In one sense he was lucky, having left Old Trafford shortly before the Munich air disaster.
