  • “Music for Remembering: Words and Images of Mass Death and Disaster” by Joseph Scanlon, Professor Emeritus and Director
    “Music for Remembering: Words and Images of Mass Death and Disaster” By Joseph Scanlon, Professor Emeritus and Director, Emergency Communications Research Unit (ECRU), Carleton University, Ottawa, Canada On Wednesday, July 24, 2013, an estimated 95,000 spectators at the cricket ground in Melbourne, Australia stood up to sing, “You’ll never walk alone,” the song of visiting Liverpool. Written in 1945 by Rodgers and Hammerstein for “Carousel,” it was adopted by Liverpool in 1965 after manager Bill Shankly heard the version by Liverpool’s Gerry & the Pacemakers1. Liverpool’s other football song, “Fields of Anfield,” had words added after a crowd crush incident in Sheffield in 1989 killed 96 Liverpool supporters and injured 766: Outside the Hillsborough flame I saw a young boy mourning Why were so many taken on that day? It’s not the only song with words added after a tragedy. Bob Dylan gave permission to have words added to “Knockin’ on Heavens’ Door” from the 1973 film Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid after the massacre of 16 children and a teacher in Dunblane, Scotland on March 13, 1996. It’s also not the only song about a football tragedy. Matt McGinn’s “The Ibrox Disaster,” tells when 66 died on stairwell 13 at Ibrox stadium in Glasgow near the end of a Ranger-Celtic match on January 2, 1951; and “The Flowers of Manchester,” tells of the February 6, 1958 Munich air crash when eight Manchester United players were among 23 killed. “Fix You” by Coldplay was sung by Tamzen Edwards over visuals showing someone trapped behind the wire fence at Hillsborough and someone trying in vain to resuscitate one of the 96 who died.

  • The Commemorative Activity at The
    The Commemorative Activity at the Grave of Munich Air Disaster Victim, Duncan Edwards: A Social and Cultural Analysis of the Commemorative Networks of a Local Sporting Hero by Gayle Rogers A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment for the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Central Lancashire July 2017 ABSTRACT The Commemorative Activity at the Grave of Munich Air Disaster Victim, Duncan Edwards: A Social and Cultural Analysis of the Commemorative Networks of a Local Sporting Hero The Munich Air Disaster claimed the lives of 23 people in a plane crash in Munich in 1958. It is a significant event within modern England’s cultural history as a number of Manchester United footballers, known as the Busby Babes were amongst the dead. The players who died have continued to be extensively commemorated, especially Duncan Edwards. This research considers the commemorative activity associated with Edwards since his death and was initiated when the researcher pondered the extensive commemorative activity by strangers that she encountered at the family grave of her cousin Edwards. The commemoration of the Disaster and of Edwards has been persistent and various with new acts of commemoration continuing conspicuously even after fifty years since the event. Such unique activity particularly demonstrated at Edwards’ grave was considered worthy of further investigation to ascertain why such activity was occurring at such a volume. Although general historical and biographical accounts of the Disaster and Edwards are apparent, specific research concerning the commemoration of the event was not evident. The researcher set out to identify who the commemorators were, why they were undertaking dedicatory acts and what those acts manifest as.

Suddenly Disney is out of magic, Paris no longer romantic, New York doesn’t stand up any more, the Chinese wall is no longer a fortress and Mecca is empty. Hugs and kisses suddenly become weapons and not visiting parents and friends becomes an act of love. Suddenly you realise that power, beauty and money are worthless and can’t get you the oxygen you’re fighting for. The world continues its life and it is beautiful. It only puts humans in cages. I think it’s sending us a message. ‘You are not necessary. The air, earth, water and sky without you are fine. When you come back, remember that you are my guests, not my masters’.

    FREE DUNCAN EDWARDS: THE GREATEST PDF James Leighton | 304 pages | 31 Jan 2013 | Simon & Schuster Ltd | 9780857207821 | English | London, United Kingdom Duncan Edwards: The greatest footballer who ever lived? | The Independent There was no way, not then, that you could divide and quantify the grief in the streets that filled with mourners when it came to the burying of the brilliant young football team that perished in Munich 50 years ago today. Some said that even the sky wept for Manchester United, but really there wasn't so much demand for tragic hyperbole. You couldn't easily exaggerate the pain or the sense of loss, because the footballers known as the Busby Babes had done more than merely accumulate astonishing success in a few brief years: they had painted a future filled with promise, the idea that anything could be Duncan Edwards: The Greatest. For the city, which had sustained so many scars in its time, and for a nation Duncan Edwards: The Greatest to emerge from the rigours and insecurities of war, they represented so many things that could not be contained by the borders of a football pitch. They were youth, and colour, and beautiful accomplishment, and swaggering self-confidence. And when they are remembered tonight in an executive suite at Old Trafford, the space-age stadium which some will always swear has grown directly from the mystical impact of the lost team, and on the terraces of Wembley, where England play a friendly match against Switzerland, the sadness of many who remember 6 February will inevitably be Duncan Edwards: The Greatest personal.

  • The Munich Air Crash and Its Different Narrations
    1 Remediating the irremediable: the Munich air crash and its different narrations Enrico Martines On 6th February 1958, an air crash at the Munich airport claimed the lives of eight Manchester United footballers, putting the overwhelming rise of the team led by Scottish manager Matt Busby to a tragic end. The “Busby Babes”, as they were popularly known, were returning from a victorious European Cup tie against Red Star Belgrade, when their airplane crashed in atrocious weather whilst attempting to take off for the third time from Munich-Riem Airport1. The tragedy not only struck English football, as it also affected ordinary people, such was the popularity of this group of young boys, “who were almost the personal friends of millions”. This sporting and human tragedy was keenly felt all over Britain; it was an event etched in the memory of a generation. One can say it was the Diana of its day, in an era not given over to false sentiment or emotion. Such a dramatic circumstance obviously earned itself a particular place in British popular culture. As Danish critic Søren Frank wrote in his cultural analysis of Manchester United, “Today the Munich disaster is a centrepiece of a steadily increasing memory industry, both in and outside the club, which helps to reinforce the mythology and mystery around the Busby Babes” (Frank 2013, 195). It has therefore been the subject of many narrations, and different media have been used to tell it: books have been written, documentaries and movies have been realised, even songs have been composed on this matter, as we can see from the list of references.
