Matt busby died

He was a football player and manager, best remembered for his management of Manchester United. The wider picture in Scotland at the time is set out in our Historical Timeline.

Matt Busby was born in Orbiston near Motherwell in North Lanarkshire, the son of a coal miner.

The doctor attending the birth in his parents' cottage is said to have made the comment: "A footballer has come into this house today". Busby's father and three of his uncles were killed during the First World War.

When he left school Busby became a miner. In 1927, his mother applied to emigrate to the USA, and Busby intended to go with her. While her application was being processed, however, he started playing part time football for Denny Hibernians, and within a few games had been signed as a professional by Manchester City.
