  • Sir Bobby Charlton
    EDUCATION PACK 2019 Activity 1 Matchbox Memories Activity 2 A Living For Northumberland Day 2019, we are running Northumbrian Legend ‘Matchbox Memories’ - an initiative with which we would like to get schools involved. – Sir Bobby Charlton We are inviting schoolchildren to write their favourite memory of Northumberland, so far in their lives, on a plain white matchbox. Alternatively, they could write it on a piece of paper and a teacher could then write on the boxes, as these are quite small. Another option is for children to take a matchbox home and collect a matchbox memory from a parent, or elderly family member. In this way, they can take part in an oral history exercise. We then wish to collect the memory boxes and put as many as possible on display. The children can add their name, or the name of the person who has given them their special memory, if they wish. We have a limited number of matchbox memory boxes available, but they can be bought at Amazon, if needs be. We could also possibly partner a school with a local sponsor, if we can find one for you. We’d love to have pictures of children working on their matchbox memories, or all holding one aloft for a photo. We will try to arrange for certain collection points, if you take part. This is a very special way to being generations together and find out what people have found special about Northumberland, past and present. We hope you have fun with it. One of the most famous Northumbrians alive today is a footballing legend and one of the few Englishmen to have won the World Cup football trophy.

  • 053: Michel Platini to Present UEFA Presidentˇs Award to Sir Bobby
    Media Release Date: 28/04/2009 Communiqué aux médias No. 053 Medien-Mitteilung Michel Platini to present UEFA President’s Award to Sir Bobby Charlton Award to be presented ahead of UEFA Champions League semi-final UEFA President Michel Platini is to travel to Old Trafford ahead of Wednesday’s UEFA Champions League semi-final between Manchester United FC and Arsenal FC to present the prestigious UEFA President’s Award 2008 to Sir Bobby Charlton, in recognition of his outstanding contribution to European football. The presentation will take place Wednesday 29 April at 12:45 local time in the Platinum Lounge, North Stand, Old Trafford and interested media should contact Phil Townsend on Tel: +44-161-868 8697. The UEFA President Award was introduced back in 1998 to acknowledge not only the achievements of an elite group of personalities of European football in a variety of domains, but also their professional excellence and human qualities. When Michel Platini took office in 2007 he decided unhesitatingly to pursue the tradition, albeit with a greater focus on the true protagonists, that is the players and the invaluable contribution that they, through their careers, have made to the development and success of football in Europe and beyond. The first milestone was reached on 18 February 2008 when Michel Platini demonstrated his deep admiration for a 'great among greats', Real Madrid CF's legend Alfredo di Stéfano, in bestowing upon him his first UEFA President's Award. Commenting on awarding the UEFA President’s Award 2008 to Manchester United FC legend Sir Bobby Charlton, UEFA President Michel Platini, said: “It is a great privilege for me to present the UEFA President’s Award to such an outstanding gentleman and ambassador for our game as Sir Bobby Charlton.

  • Inside out Manchester United
    Inside Out Manchester United WORKSHEET A Many English football teams have the word United in their name, but by far the most famous is from the northern city of Manchester and plays in red shirts and white shorts. When football fans refer to Manchester United just as ‘United’, as they often do, other fans always know who they mean. It’s possible that United have more fans than any other football team in the world. Their stadium, Old Trafford, holds around 75,000 people and is full for almost every match. It’s also true that tens of millions of people around the world watch their matches on TV, and that when they play friendlies thousands of miles away in Asia or Africa (as they have done in recent years in July or August, before the English football season starts) the crowds are always very big. The club was founded back in 1878 and has had a successful history. It has won the English championship eighteen times (the same number as Liverpool, their biggest rivals) and the European Champions’ League (previously the European Cup) three times. A well-known tragedy in United’s history was when many of their best players died in a plane crash in Munich, Germany, in 1958. It seemed the club might not recover, but ten years later, in 1968, they became the first English team to win the European Cup. United’s best players in their great team of the late 1960s included Bobby Charlton (probably the most famous English footballer of the 1960s) and George Best (who some say was the best player who never played in a World Cup – the reason was that he was from Northern Ireland, a country that never qualified for the World Cup during his career).
