Show Notes
25 years ago, Manchester United made English football history, when they won the treble of the Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League. With a nucleus of homegrown stars, Alex Ferguson and his team went on a remarkable 33 game unbeaten run to reach the promised land.
Where there is a true moment in time, a ‘where were you?’ moment, there is a desire to relive it. And not just relive it. To feel what it was like before it happened. To remember that anticipation. To bask in the moment and soak it in just one more time. Now you can.
Narrated by Paddy Barclay, produced by Wayne Barton and using rare unheard audio from the collection of Tom Tyrrell, this episode of the Manchester United Podcast places you on May 14th, 1999, two days before the final Premier League game against Tottenham Hotspur. You will hear from the players as they navigated through the following days, on the brink of history, experiencing it as it happened.
This is Manchester United, on the edge of glory.
