Travels and Travails of a 1980s Red Devil
Description
Inglory, Inglory Man United chronicles the travails of United in the 1980s from the perspective of a Warrington-born, diehard schoolboy Red Devil, who could easily have opted for the multiple-title winners from Anfield. A disaster for United in terms of silverware; but the 1980s provided fabulous entertainment and soap opera storylines all the way.
