By winning 2-0 at Wigan Athletic FC on 11 May United ensured they finished two points clear of Avram Grant's team, who began the day level on points but were held 1-1 at home by Bolton Wanderers FC. • A UEFA Champions League triumph this year, 50 years after the loss of eight of manager Sir Matt Busby's 'Babes' in the 1958 Munich air crash, would carry a particular emotional resonance for United, who were previously continental champions in 1968 and 1999. • Chelsea, by contrast, will hope the size of the prize at stake will inspire them to rise above their domestic disappointment and claim their first European Cup in what is their first final. If Moscow appears perhaps the perfect venue for the club's Russian owner Roman Abramovich, Chelsea supporters may find another positive omen in the date of the final: it was on 21 May 1971 that the London side won their first European trophy, beating Real Madrid CF to claim the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup.

The tournament has received a less than favourable build-up, plagued by allegations of political meddling, hooliganism concerns, infrastructure challenges, and fan apathy. While over half a century separates Russia 2018 from England’s own hosting of the World Cup, and while the scale of the event has increased dramatically in the intervening years, the concerns expressed by international fans and ocials in the build-up to this summer’s tournament carry many echoes of those aired prior to 1966. The apprehension of those arriving in Moscow, Rostov-on-Don and “the unlikely World Cup City” of Saransk this week is perhaps similar to that of the North Koreans who arrived in Middlesbrough, the Argentines who descended on Sheeld, and the Soviets who landed in Sunderland. Apathy in the UK England’s preparations for the 1966 World Cup were dogged by concerns that – beyond the major cities of London, Birmingham, Manchester and Liverpool – the provincial towns and cities designated as tournament venues were ill-prepared, with little to offer the foreign visitor, and would struggle to attract fans.

  • Legendy: Roy Keane – Buntownik Z Wyboru]
    [LEGENDY: ROY KEANE – BUNTOWNIK Z WYBORU] LEGENDY: ROY KEANE – BUNTOWNIK Z WYBORU POKOCHAŁEM OLD TRAFFORD W MOMENCIE, GDY PO RAZ PIERWSZY POSTAWIŁEM W NIM SWOJĄ STOPĘ. Kiedy Roy Keane postanowił zakooczyd karierę w Manchesterze United, chyba każdy kibic poczuł ukłucie żalu i wysnuł myśl, że ta drużyna już nigdy nie będzie taka sama. Znakomite warunki Irlandczyka, technika, pomysł na grę oraz niebywała charyzma uczyniły go piłkarzem nowego pokolenia, który rozpoznawany był na równi z Cantoną czy Robsonem, a z czasem nawet zaczął wyrastad na jeszcze większy symbol Manchesteru United, niż ci dwaj zawodnicy. Kibice nie powinni się licytowad o to, który z nich był tak naprawdę lepszy czy bardziej wpływowy. Nie powinni, bo każda grupa kibiców, którzy w danym roku wiązali się z Manchesterem United będzie chciała przeforsowad swojego idola, nie umniejszając jednocześnie innym. Prawda jest taka, że wśród piłkarzy młodego pokolenia, pokolenia Fergusona, ta trójka to piłkarze, bez których Manchester United nie byłby teraz Manchesterem United, tylko pewnie zniknąłby gdzieś w szarzyźnie zespołów bez charakterów i osobowości. Na całe szczęście my mieliśmy Keane’a. Niedawno zaś na Redlogu Radek zaprezentował Wam bibliotekę kibica Czerwonych Diabłów. Znalazła się w niej również pozycja właśnie Roya Keane’a “The Autobiography”. Jednak nie każdy z różnych względów będzie miał okazję ją przeczytad (np. nie została przetłumaczona na język polski, jest trudno dostępna w naszym kraju), dlatego też ten artykuł będzie zawierał sporo cytatów właśnie z tej książki. JESTEŚ ZA MAŁY! 10 sierpnia 1971 roku w Mayfield przyszedł na świat Roy Maurice Keane. Mayfield znajdowało się zaś w północnej części przedmieści miasta Cork. Wtedy w Irlandii czasy recesji stwarzały bardzo ciężkie warunki do życia i zmuszały ludzi do masowej emigracji - analogiczną sytuację mamy okazję obserwowad patrząc na emigracje na linii Polska - Wielka Brytania.
