Can I ask for Xmarkers to spare a moment to remember the victims of the 1958 Munich air disaster,

theres an excelent and very moving website that details the events of 1958,

the story is that Manchester united manager, Scot Sir Matt Busby was charged with forming a football team composed of the best players in the world, the result were known as the "Busby babes" after a a match against Redstar Belgrade the plane they were travelling on crashed at Munich airport, killing several of the team. of particular note the great Duncan Edwards, rated as the best player in the world at the time.

even if your not a united fan (which Im not, Celtic through and through) its a tragic story and these were the giants of the sporting world at the time.
