The war is over, football is back — and so is Manchester United, with a brand-new manager at the helm: Matt Busby.

In this episode, Wayne Barton and the late Paddy Barclay kick off the post-war era with a deep dive into the 1946/47 season, the very first under the legendary Busby. We break down how he began reshaping the club, the key players who helped him finish second in the league, and what made this team so different from what came before.
